Did we ever figure out how to refresh Top Bar?

Post by Jaymer »

I activate Mobile Tracking inside a form.
I want to redraw the Top Bar to let the user know.
If I manually hit the <Back button, it will show up - cause the whole screen is refreshed.
But I can't have someone get bumped out a level or two down inside a form... so i need to manually force Top Bar to redraw.
(EXEC_JS anyone?)

I thought I saw a recent discussion on redraw of Top Bar or Banner.
I may have to abandon this method without a solution.

here's my TopBar setup.

And I like how this looks.
This is after I started tracking, and clicked <Back then came back in.

The lower red bar is a Panel Operation, so its only visible inside a form.
The Top Bar will be visible anytime you re-visit the app, and I want the user to know that Tracking is still on right away without going back into a particular section of the app.

You can use Auto-Refresh for this - by default Auto-refresh redraws data only, but if you implement Auto-Refresh as a process triggered by Mobile Tracking operation, then this process can redraw the entire form.
