Dropzone Upload Plugin
A new region-type plugin that allows you to upload multiple files via drag & drop to multiple destinations such as: table/view, an APEX collection or file system directory.
This component resizes automatically when the page layout changes and supports:
- individual & bulk file removal
- resizing images before upload
- clear dropzone functionality
- set file size limit & allowed file types
Islamic (Hijri) Date Picker
Version 3.1 introduces a Hijri calendar date picker for those who need to display calendar dates in islamic format.
This component supports:
- multi-month display
- date range client-side validation
- automatic date conversion (Gregorian - Hijri)
- works in both LTR and RTL modes
Multi-Select Grid Combo
A form-item plugin similar in functionality and behavior to the FOEX Grid Combo. This plugin does not limit you to one selection, it is a multi-column list of values (LOV).
This component enables you to automatically save selections to the Forms' table or to a separate intersection table and it comes with regular dynamic action support, so you can set value, set read-only, enable/disable, styling or make any other dynamic changes to it.
Progress Item Plugin
This new component is ideal for tracking long-running processes or used as a static indicator to show the progress achieved on a specific task/activity.
It is supported in the toolbar, in a form, but also as an individual item outside the form. Additional functionality:
- set custom text
- define colors based on progress stage
- automatically set up a timer to execute progress tracking and update the bar
- set request limit & custom interval
Grid Enhancements
In FOEX 3.1 our grid component becomes even more powerful with additional client-side validations that are performed in cell edit mode, before the grid is saved, reducing the amount of AJAX calls back to the server.
The Select Row(s) and Refresh Rows dynamic actions have also been enhanced and now support multiple selections. Both now support regular expressions for performing column search and client-side substitutions.
Icon Button Item Plugin
Building on top of Font Awesome/Font APEX, you can now define icons, resize and place them either in a toolbar or a form.
This component supports:
- set custom icon size
- active/disabled color change
- help text
- use icons in read-only mode
Return/Display Item Plugin
A component familiar to Forms developers that behaves similar to the Grid Combo and which enables you to perform a record lookup based on its ID.
