ReportReport
Posted on by 80

I've created a simiple customization where in I've added a new section in the Summary tab of the Account. The secion appears on the main form first above all other section. I need to control the order of the section such that it appears at last. How can i do this ?







Above is the sample code from my customization.xml.

Looking forward for somehelp. Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Himal

    Hi Himal,

    A screenshot and more details about your xml structure would be helpful to better understand problem you encountered.

    UCI uses grid system to render layout.

    If the tab has 3 columns, then we should put the section into the third column node.

    (The first column: left, the second column: center; the third column: right.)

    It seems that you have changed your tab to only one column layout, so if you put the section node to bottom of column node, then it shall appears at last.

    Thanks Clofly,

    I've put the section into the first column with 100% width. (id="0"). I tried to put it into the third column, (id=2) but then the section appeared first into the third column. I want to add the section at the end not first in the column.

    below is the code which i used to add a test section with iframe.

    and as you can see the section appears first in the tab. I want it to be loaded in the end.

    Hi Himal,

    Following steps are how I did to put the custom section under the Assistant section.

    1. Find the third column node, and locate to the Assistant section.

    2. Insert the whole test section after the Assistant section. (Before the Primary section.)

    Hi Clofly,

    Thanks!

    Can you please increase the  resolution of the image so i can see it.

    Also, as i have shown in my image, i have only included only one column into my customization.xml. and that column defines the row with the control i want to add. It doesnt include any of the existing controls of the account form.

    So you mean to say that i need to add those existing controls in my customization in order to control the order of the control ?

    Regards,

    Hi Himal,

    When the cursor is staying on the image, you can click the zoom in icon to enlarge it.

    Regarding your question: yes, to insert custom section after an existing section, we should add existing controls to customization.

    (I added Account form of Account to my solution.)

    Thanks a ton!

    I was trying to avoid adding existing sections in my customization but it seems like there is no other way around. I need to add them.
