FDN Help

New to using FDN, and the Form Wizard on learning.intersystems.com does not go into enough detail to help with my questions...

  1. Is there a way to control text size within the Form Definition?
  2. Is there a way to make Sections more of a Page based caching then, waiting for the entire page to load?

  1. To control text size within the Form Definition in FDN, there is no specific mention of how this can be handled directly in the provided documents. For tables and text-related widgets in dashboards, several options including font size control and text style specifications can be defined (examples include slider controls or input boxes). For implementation in FDN, it might follow similar principles where elements like font size or attributes could be abstracted or extended in certain ways depending on the platform [1].

  2. Addressing the caching request for sections and page-based caching as opposed to loading the entire page: Specific techniques for caching sections dynamically are not provided in the retrieved information about FDN usage. However, general principles like using temporary tables or optimized database queries could be applicable to efficiently cache individual sections or pages and improve loading performance [2][3].

You may need to explore further in Community discussions or documentation specific to FDN standards to achieve detailed resolution.
