Closing a unimform using client events.

[Ario.Paxaz]

Hello

 

How do I close an unimform using UnimButton and client events?
The following code did not work.

 
function tap(sender, e, eOpts)
{
	//sender.close();  
	//this.up('form').close(); 
	//frmCalc.close(); 
}

 

Regards.

Hello, 

May I ask why you're trying to close the UnimForm specifically from the client side? Is there a particular reason you're avoiding a server-side solution?

Hello,

The user didn't want to leave the PWA space.

He asked for a calculator and I did it server-side, which was a lot, then I created the calculator with js functions.

Now I have a unimbutton that returns the results to an unimedit in the main form and closes the calculator form,

the server-side for this unimbutton seems slow to the user.

This is slow from the user's perspective.
Of course, he is filling in the price, quantity, etc. fields on the warehouse receipt.
And the slowness in closing the form and calculating the result is important to him.

Hello,

Yes, I understand your point — client-side speed is important, especially in PWA scenarios where every millisecond matters for the user experience.

However, in uniGUI, forms (including UnimForm) are managed on the server side. So even though we can trigger certain UI effects with JavaScript, a proper close/dispose of a form still requires server-side involvement to clean up resources, release memory, and maintain application state.

Thank you for the guidance, Sherzod.

With your explanation, I tried to solve it in a different way.
