How do I make the basic layout of my app to look like SCv6 layout?

Dark menu along the top
Static Button bar under that
Dynamic button bar under that (with “Home” always visible, and on the left)

Re: How do I make the basic layout of my app to look like SCv6 layout?

Can you tell me an example, show me a picture ? In the samples project inside SC, there is any similar ?

Hi Max,

If you log into ScriptCase, what you are looking at, is what I want. (The layout of ScriptCase development environment, not ScriptCase itself).
Menu bar along the top, static button bar under that, dynamic button bar under that. I’m a beginner and I don’t know the proper terminology. Are these things Blocks?, Frames? Menus? If you could even tell me what those things are, in the ScriptCase development environment layout, that would at least point me in the right direction.

Hi Boxer,
I have been doing some really cool (to me anyway) interfaces using SC. You have to think of using container apps and menu apps, mixing them together in different ways. I have not tried to have a ribbon yet (the big icon menu under the SC development menu), but I believe that would be possible either using a menu with lots of mods, or a blank app up there with some coding.

If you program php you can pretty much go in infinite ways. SC might not be able to give much direction on everything, as they are more focused on making the coder generation part of this work.

You should also look at the layout of each app - not just menus - but all of them, and see the power of the title lines. You can use [glo_dynamic_whateever] - global variables - in those titles. Since those can have html and such in them, then you can built those dynamically in the events, such as onscriptinit, etc.

It really is very powerful once you start trying this.

Go very incrementally. Generate some basic stuff first, see how the out of the box menus works, etc - then start making minor changes.

Let me know how it goes. I have something I can open up soon to show what I have done, but I am not quite there yet :wink:
peace,
Jamie

Boxer, in the samples project like OnlinShop, Training, News etc… There’s a lot of ways to do that, and its already done in this examples. Like onmountaion said, you can use menus, containers to achieve this.
