i write using if else condition and its working

But i want to write using Switch statement

code is

function filterfields()
{
var firstPickListValue = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_options").getValue();
if (firstPickListValue == null)
{
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);
}
else if(firstPickListValue == 10,00,00,000)
{
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(true);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);
}
else if(firstPickListValue == 10,00,00,001)
{
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(true);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);

Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);
}
else if(firstPickListValue == 10,00,00,002)
{
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(true);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);

Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);
}
else if(firstPickListValue == 10,00,00,003)
{
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(true);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);

Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);
}
else if(firstPickListValue == 10,00,00,004)
{
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(true);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);
Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);

    RE: Show hide attributes

    The code would be

    // hide the controls
    var ctls=["new_a","new_b","new_c","new_d","new_e"];
for (i=0; i < ctls.length; i++){
   Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get(ctls[i]).setVisible(false);
}


    but I think the 5 separate queries make it clearer what is going on...

    RE: Show hide attributes

    Hi,

    Is there any possibility to write this below code in single for loop

    function filterfields() {

       Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);

       Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);

       Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);

       Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);

       Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);

    RE: Show hide attributes

    Personally I would be using

    function filterfields() {
    Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);
    Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);
    Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);
    Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);
    Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);

    var firstPickListValue = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_options").getValue();
    switch (firstPickListValue) {
        
        case '100000000':
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(true);
           
            break;
        case '100000001':
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(true);
            break;
        default:
            break;

    }
  
}

    I know it means you are setting the same value twice but personally it's far easier to read and follow what is happening within the code...

    RE: Show hide attributes

    If you want to implement switch case then  here is sample code  -

    function filterfields() {
    var firstPickListValue = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_options").getValue();
    switch (firstPickListValue) {
        case null:
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);
            break;
        case '100000000':
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);
            break;
        case '100000001':
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(true);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);
            break;
        default:
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);
            Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);

    }
  
}

    RE: Show hide attributes

    HI,

    var Value = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_options").getValue();

    switch(Value) {

       case 10,00,00,000:

           code block

           break;

       case case 10,00,00,001:

           code block

           break;

    ------other blocks -----

       default:

           Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);

          Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);

          Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);

         Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);

         Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);

         break;

    }

    use default for null value.

    Hi,

    Remove the comma(,) from the value - Try with this  -

    function filterfields() {
    var firstPickListValue = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_options").getValue();
    if (firstPickListValue == null) {
        Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(false);
        Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);
        Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);
        Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);
        Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_e").setVisible(false);
    }
    else if (firstPickListValue == "100000000") {
        Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_a").setVisible(true);
        Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_b").setVisible(false);
        Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_c").setVisible(false);
        Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_d").setVisible(false);
