27) Explain the Importance of each type of window in Smart
forms?

Answer Posted / saikalyan

Main window:
In a main window you display text and data,
which can cover several pages (flow text). As soon as a
main window is completely filled with text and data, the
system continues displaying the text in the main window of
the next page. It automatically triggers the page break.
Secondary Window:
In a secondary window you display text and data
in a predetermined output area. There is no flow text
display with page break. If you position a secondary window
with the same name on several pages, the system displays
the contents of this secondary window on each page.
Copy window
You use the copies window to define an output area for the
print output, whose content you want to appear either only
on the copy or only on the original. This allows you to
flag copies as copies when the form is printed.

Final window:
You may want to display or query values on the first page
that are determined only during processing. For example,
you may want to name the grand total in the letter text of
an invoice. However, this amount is determined only after
listing all individual items. Or you may want to query on
the first page within a condition the total number of
pages, which the system calculates only after processing
all pages.
In such a case, you use the final window: Processing first
skips all windows of this type in the tree and works its
way to the end of the tree. Only after the actual
processing is finished, the final windows are processed in
the order in which they appear in the tree (from top to
bottom). Now any information is available that is known
only at the end of the form processing.
