How to hide and show dynamically actions on a page?

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hey guys,

I would like to know, if I can hide and show dynamically actions on a page?

In the following image you can see my page, where I have two actions.

If one of both has been exectued, the other one should only be visable, but not be enabled.

How can I achieve this?

    Solution:

    In the underlying table of my page, where I have my actions, I added two new fields: WithData & WithoutData, both are from type boolean and they got the InitValue property = true. In the page I used the OnOpenPage trigger to set both fields again to true: WithData  := true; WithoutData := true; I extended my actions in that page by the property "Enabled". One action got Enabled=WithData and the other one Enabled=WithoutData. Then I extended the code of my actions by this lines:

    WithData := True;

    WithoutData := false;

    Modify();

    Commit();

    And for the other action the first two line just vice versa.

    I do not get it...

    I created two fields in the underlying table: WithData & WithoutData, both are boolean.

    Then I have my action, in their code I set the fields to true and false, right?

    Like this?

    Because now is no action visible.

    My page is a listpart where the actions are, maybe that makes some problems

    Hi

    This could be one of the ways of doing it. Create a two field on the table and when the report is run make the corresponding boolean true.

    Based on this boolean make the visibility of the action.
