FileInput position issue

#1 · February 21, 2021, 12:37 pm

I seem to have an issue when using two FileInput's within the same container where they are affected by the positioning or movement of the other.

If one is moved the other one goes to a different position from where it was placed and the only way to get them into the wanted position or area on screen is to manually edit the top and left positions in relation to each other, they are then displayed correctly when the app is run but within the design editor they are positioned over the top of other objects.

Thanks

@paultomo you are right. To tell you the truth, this is the first time I test more than one FileInput within the same page.
I will try to fix the bug in next release. Do they work fine? I mean, is it only a positioning problem?

Thanks!

@luishp

Yes, they both still work okay, it's just the positioning..

As the main purpose of the File input object is to open a folder, could there be a selectable option to display as a plain button, like now or as a folder icon/image, which would make more sense to an end user..

Thanks

@paultomo take a look at this trick.
We don't need InputFile necessarily to be visible at all :)
