ReportReport
Posted on by 1,331

Hi,

         I have customized a system ribbon button using ribbon workbench, with the help of odata. It's customized correctly, but the system button functionality is lost.

when clicking on that not giving it's original functionality of the button, will this happens for every system button customized, or should I do any modification to withheld the functionality while achieving the customization.

 

 

Please help...

    Hi,

    Could you post your Ribbon Xml please. When you say that the system button functionality is lost - do you get an error?

    Thanks,

    Scott

    Hi,

    Your custom command have no actions in them - so they will not perform any actions.

    new.activitypointer.Command2.Command - has an empty custom <Actions /> node.

    It looks like you have customised the system button and then given it a new command but not provided any logic.

    Thanks scott  for your response, I am customizing the cancel button in a subgrid based on subgrid record type.

    After performing that customization cancel button out of box functionality of displaying a webpage dialog to cancel or not is not displaying,

    not throwing any error....I m checking can I get that webpage dialog guid so that I call in an url/via js action...so that the system functionality is also met..

    You cannot use a system function in combination with custom code - you will have to completely replace the system function with your own custom dialog - see ribbonworkbench.uservoice.com/.../140652-create-a-dialog-short-cut-ribbon-button

    Hi Scott,

             I got that instead of customizing the button, I have customized the command and added enable rules to that itself, so its customized and giving out of box functionality.

    Thanks for your support....have done this via ribbon workbench only.
