Enabled Property

Client support

   Newlook Smartclient only.

Use

The Enabled property is used to determine whether the form or object can respond to user generated events such as mouse clicks.

When the Enabled property of a control is set to False, there is usually a visual indication that the control is disabled, for instance it will be rendered with the default system color for disabled text (grey). The control does not exhibit any "hot" state when hovered over with a mouse.

Due to the dynamic nature of the HTML, IFrame, GoogleMap, GoogleBarChart and GooglePieChart controls, this property is not supported for these controls in Newlook Server.

Settings

The following constants can be used anywhere in macros or scripts in place of the actual values.

If you are retrieving the value of a property or parameter, scripts or macros will return the integer value, whereas Inspector will display the constant equivalent.

KEEP IN MIND:

When using constants in the script editor, each constant must be prefaced by nl.

The available settings for value for these controls are :

Use

The Enabled property is used to determine whether the form or object can respond to user generated events such as mouse clicks.

This property allows forms and objects to be enabled or disabled at run-time. For example, you can disable controls depending on the input provided by users. You can also disable a control used purely for display purposes, for example a text box that provides information you do not want the user to edit.

Disabled controls differ from read-only controls in that they cannot be interacted with in any way. A control that has had its ReadOnlyproperty set to True can be interacted with, but it cannot be modified. For example, a user can select the text of a read-only text box, but they cannot change it, whereas the text of a disabled control cannot be selected at all.

When the Enabled property of a control is set to False, there is usually a visual indication that the control is disabled, for instance it will be rendered with the default system color for disabled text (grey). The control does not exhibit any "hot" state when hovered over with a mouse.
