Set the value of the specified Field in a webviewer.
Component | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | Server | iOS SDK |
WebView | 1.3 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | ❌ No | ✅ Yes |
Parameter | Description | Example | Flags |
---|---|---|---|
WebViewerRef | Either the Web Viewer Object Name or the Web Viewer ID as returned by "WebView.FindByName" function. | ||
FormNameOrIndex | Either the Name of the Form or the Index starting at 0 | ||
Field | the name of the field, case sensitive | ||
NewValue | the value to set | ||
OnlyVisible | Whether to look for all fields or only the visible ones. Default is false. | 0 | Optional |
Note for Windows: For Windows this function is only supported in FileMaker Pro when using Internet Explorer as engine behind the Web Viewer, but not when Microsoft Edge/Chrome engine is used. But the functions should still work if with Web Viewers created via plugin using WebView.Create and WebView.CreateWithControl as those still use Internet Explorer.
