JR59784: RADIO BUTTON AND CHECKBOX GROUPS IN MODAL SECTIONS LACK THE FOCUS METHOD

workflow.18002.delta.repository

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When you use Radio Button and Checkbox groups in the Modal
  Section, you want to set the focus on the controls when the
  modal opens. However, the controls lack the focus method.

Local fix

• Add code like the following code to the "On show" event of the
  modal section, for each radio button group and checkbox group:
  
  setTimeout(function(){
  
  ${/Radio_Group1}._instance.input.querySelector('input').focus();
  },0);
  
  where Radio_Group1 is an example for a Radio Button group for
  the specific control ID. The setTimeout is needed only if a
  timing issue prevents execution, such as in the Modal section.
  

Problem summary

• No additional information is available.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix that provides a focus method will be available in a future
   release of IBM Business Automation Workflow.
  

Temporary fix
