Hidden subform issue

[jmahoneyHWE]

I have created a form for plant operators to use during turnover. In this form, I have hidden subforms that only display if a plant is in an abnormal status (defined by a user clicking a 'abnormal' radio button). However, when the form is saved and closed, all items that were displayed as being abnormal disappear upon re-opening. The radio buttons still show up as being selected to 'abnormal', but the hidden subfroms below no longer appear unless you click on them again. Any suggestions on how to keep these subforms showing even after closing and re-opening? Thanks!

Hi,

you better place the script for control the visibily into the layout:ready event of the subform you want to control.

if(checkButton1.value.integer.value == 1)

     {

     this.presence = "visible";

     }

else

     {

     this.presence = "hidden";

     }

That is probably where I went wrong. I inserted the visibility script into the 'click' event, but forgot to put it in the layout:ready. I'll test it out now.

That was exactly what it was. Thanks for the helpful information.
