Open Inner Form from Main Form

Forms
Updated October 13, 2023
asked on April 28, 2017

Good morning,

I'm working on a process that has two forms. In the Main form I have textbox and a button. When I click the button, this opens the second form (from within the same process). I'm using the "preview" link to open the popup. Then, I select something from the popup, it closes and comes back with a value in the textbox that I passed from the popup.

How can I make the second form (popup) open as a regular form and not in "preview" mode? In other words, is there a way to have a dedicated URL for an inner form, one that is not the "start" form?

The URL for the process will always direct to the starting form. As far as I know there is not a way to get a URL to point to another form within the same process without changing the starting form.

AAAAAhhh! Ok, so I guess the only solution would be to simply place the popup in a separate process and call it like that.

Thanks Blake.

For anyone that might have a similar need and don't wish to have separate processes; what I ended up doing is hiding the title of the popup by unchecking the "Show form title" checkbox of the "Form Title" setting. Then I just replaced the "Preview Mode" message with a new title using this in javascript.

$('.form-top-notice').html('The title of your popup');       

$(".Submit").hide();

Keep in mind that you can't use an actual form in there because preview windows won't submit. Just for information purposes; or in my case, to bring info from the popup to the main form.

@████████ can your users open the preview even if they are not licensed with a full license? Thanks
