Create Modal Page : Add Options to Generate Cancel/Submit/Delete buttons

nicolas pilot Public · May 12 2022

Idea Summary
We use modal page a lot, and we always need to create 

  • The button container region
  • The cancel button (with the DA : Cancel Dialog)
  • The submit button 
  • And sometime the delete button (with confirm action).

It would be cool to have them generated by default by the wizard.

This is currently on the roadmap for a future release of Oracle APEX.

    Hi Nicolas,

    I like the idea of including “Cancel” button. That would add “Cancel” button and D.A. to cancel the dialog when the button is clicked. Even we could enable this flag by default. Because most cases we may need it.

    I don't see creating just “Submit” button. If you are saying “Submit” button + create “Close Dialog” process when this button is clicked, then I do see some value. 

    “Delete” button looks very specific. We can do this easily using Page Designer. Create a button, just enable “Requires Confirmation” flag and add “Confirmation > Message”. That's it.

    Regards,

    Srihari

    Hi Srihari,

    • I Agree for the “cancel ” button 
    • Agree also for the “submit”, the button, it should also generate the “Close Dialog” process + must be placed in the “CREATE" position of the button container and be “hot” by default.
    • For the “delete”, you are right, it's not a big thing, but it would be a few seconds of time saving, to create the button, rename it, enable the confirmation, enter a confirmation message, change the styling to “alert” and place it into the “DELETE" position of the button container. (Could also generate another Close Dialog process with a success message “Record Deleted”)

    Regards
