Kinetic updatable dashboard -- check and save dirty rows before closing the form

Kinetic ERP
1

Hey.

I have an dashboard in 25.2 that I’ve converted from Classic. It works fine, but it doesn’t check for a dirty row (possibly mutliple) before closing the form.

How might I add an event to catch the form closing and verify the update?

Thanks,

Joe

Which “closing” do you mean? Closing the form my clicking “X” on the tab? Closing the form by opening another form via the waffle menu?

Just closing the form with the X button.

I’ve noticed for some time that apps like menu maintenance, BAQ designer, and Application Studio don’t ask if you want to save changes if you close the form. I finally did some checking yesterday, and it seems that’s standard functionality now in Kinetic apps–to just close without checking for dirty rows.

Is my experience unique?

Thanks,

Joe

That is probably a browser thing then as it’s likely outside the layer’s ability to “see”.

5 
window.addEventListener("beforeunload", function (event) {
    // your code here

    event.preventDefault();
    event.returnValue = ''; // Required for Chrome
});

They can do it…
