The Chrono website seems to be missing a lot of basic information. Is there a guide somewhere that covers the system, (not "How To" create this type for that type of form)?
Example: I am trying to create two forms, My first attempt to see if this will meet my needs.
I have dragged a header over from the right site, entered appropriate info in the fields, but how do I save it so I can proceed to adding more fields? There is an area at the top right (of the box created by the dragging operation.) with four Icons, a wrench, two triangles, another that I do not know how to describe characterize and an "X". The X, the Wrench and the Triangles I have figured out, but I do non know what the other is for and the it displays no info when I hover the mouse over it. Do I just have to save the whole form each time I add or change a field?
What is the difference between Save and Quick Save on the whole form?
A guide to each of the items on the right under actions and views. Some are obvious (I Think), and others not so much. A couple of sentences about each would be extremely helpful.
Some guide on using data from other tables would be helpful (at least to me).
I have a table with approx 40,000 rows that I need to use. I need to display data selectively from some of the rows, (one record or row at a time, possibly display a list of selected rows) and obtain the index id of the row in the non-chrono table. I need to save that index id with data form that I am creating. The form I am creating needs to also obtain data from a couple of fields in the external table. I do not need to write to the non-chrono table at all but I do need to save entries made through chrono forms to a separate chrono table. In other words, basic relational CRUD operations.
I have seen all the videos I can find on YouTube but they all are dreadfully outdated. The newest I found was 10 years old and none cover the info I need.
