Usage

Introduction

This usage guide is using the plug-in sample application IG_CHECKBOX_PLUGIN table. In an example application, page 710 is created. On the page, an interactive grid region called Example is created and contains three columns ID, EMP_NAME, and FLAG. The ID and EMP_NAME columns are Display Only and the FLAG column is a Text Field. The interactive grid supports editing and the primary key is set as the ID column.

The FLAG column is a VARCHAR2 column that can store flag values such as:

  • Y - when checked
  • N - when not checked
  • NULL - when the flag is not set

Creating a Plug-in Column

  1. Select the FLAG column
  2. Set Identification \ Type to United Codes IG Checkbox Pro [Plug-in]
  3. Set Settings \ Type to APEX icons
  4. For Settings \ Icon Checked use fa-check-square-o as the default value
  5. For Settings \ Icon Not Checked use the fa-square-o as the default value
  6. For Settings \ Value When Checked use Y as the default value
  7. For Settings \ Value When Not Checked use N as the default value
  8. For Settings \ New Row Default Value use Null as the default value
  9. (Optional) Set Settings \ Settings according to your requirements

The resulting page will look as follows:

Test the Implementation

  1. Open page 710 in a browser
  2. Test the checkbox inside and outside of interactive grid edit mode (behavior depends on the plug-in Settings \ Settings)
