Hi there,
When using the Pick Action Wizard -> Hyperlink functionality, there is a checkbox for opening up the hyperlink inside ViewX as tab. When linking to a web site (as opposed to another mimic) this results in an HTML tab created inside ViewX.
PickActionWizard Hyperlink Method
I am interested in passing data from a ViewX session to the hyperlinked URL via URL params (e.g "http:localhost:9999/app?param1=value1". Using the Pick Action Wizard->Hyperlink method, you don't have the ability to dynamically create the URL to do this.
Instead, you must use a script utilizing the Mimic.Navigate function to dynamically create the URL like so:
sub OpenHyperlink()
'Example value from ViewX session
systemName = Mimic.SystemName
'Pack into a string argument
arg1 = "param1="+CStr(systemName)
'Create the URL string
url = "http://localhost:9999/app?" + arg1
'Pass string to Mimic.Navigate function
Mimic.Navigate(url)
end sub
The above code works as expected but opens the hyperlink in a standalone Browser instance.
Is there any way to tell the Mimic.Navigate script function to open the browser inside ViewX similar to the Pick Action Wizard functionality?

You can animate the PickParam property - put the whole URL in that.

Not sure why I didn't think of that, thanks Steve!
