Refresh Quick View From

I have a requirement to Display a Subgrid of Contact (Parent) Address on a child record,

So I decided to go with the Quick View Form, however when the Look up is changed I need to refresh the Quick View form even thou the system refreshes it automatically.

But there is no change in the Subgrid.

I have written a javascript function.

function refreshQuickView()
{
  var quickViewControl = Xrm.Page.ui.quickForms.get("ContactAddress");
	if (quickViewControl != null) 
	{ 
         setTimeout(function () 
	{ 
	quickViewControl.refresh(); 
	}, 900); 
	} 

}

I also tried this to make is easier.

function refreshQuickView()
{
var quickViewControl = Xrm.Page.ui.quickForms.get("ContactAddress");		
quickViewControl.refresh(); 	
}

But the only refresh I see is the system refresh.

How can I make the refresh effective so I can see the correct sub-grid records when the contact look up is changed.

The Quick View Form control refresh() method did not work for either no matter what I tried. But I did see the same effect by refreshing the form context data. The Quick View Form updated to show the most recent data. Link to Data Refresh Method: docs.microsoft.com/.../refresh

Try with this -

var quickViewControl = Xrm.Page.ui.quickForms.get("ContactAddress"); var grid = quickViewControl.getControl("gridName"); if (grid != null && grid != undefined) { grid.refresh(); }

RE: Refresh Quick View From

Thanks I think you are right, so How do I do that?

So if i have a contact with 2 addresses.

Another contact with 3 addresses.

Any time I change the contact look up to the contact with 3 addresses , I excpect the refresh to display 3 addresses and not two which belongs to the contact with two address.

how do I get the subgrid in the quick view form and also refresh it.

var quickViewControl = Xrm.Page.ui.quickForms.get("ContactAddress");

is there a method like quickViewControl.subgrid("addresssubgrid").refresh();

I am not sure but this should work , I am just thinking how you are sure that quick view control is not refreshing ?

Grid data stored cache once loaded , so may be you need separately refresh the grid control inside quick view form. Try to get the grid control from quick view form and refresh the grid as well.

Thanks but the problem is with the refresh, I think the system refresh over rides the javascript .

The quick view control is always returned.

And the code does not go to else with your new code

That means your control is not getting somehow . Try with this -

function refreshQuickView() { var quickViewControl = Xrm.Page.ui.quickForms.get("ContactAddress"); if (quickViewControl != undefined && quickViewControl != null) { if (quickViewControl.isLoaded()) { quickViewControl.refresh(); return; } else { // Wait for some time and check again setTimeout(getQuickViewFormAttributeValues, 50); } } else { // Wait for some time and check again setTimeout(getQuickViewFormAttributeValues, 50); } }

Thanks But this also did not work, i set the time to 3000 then 6000

on the Debug at the time out function it just jumps to the next stage and does nothing.

Any other suggestions please?

just an update it then goes to the lookup function

where the refresh method is undefined

RE: Refresh Quick View From

I am calling the script on change of the Look up ..its a look up to contact.

And none of the code works...I have debugged the Javascript..the problem is that the system automatically refreshed the quick view form when the look up is changed and the record is saved...so that overrides my own refresh I guess.
