Hi all,

I am getting all the controls using the Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get() library. Next thing is to look for a particular field/section and disable all its controls.

How do we do this? When i use the Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get() library it was having an array of collection of 45 elements. How do i select a particular object?

Hi

You can try similar to this:

Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("<field name>").setDisabled(false);

Xrm.Page.getControl("<field name>").setVisible(false);

Refer the following:

You can access an attribute by name this way:

var nameAttribute = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("name");

Access attribute by index:

var firstAttribute = Xrm.Page.getAttribute(0);

Get all attributes: var allAttributes = Xrm.Page.getAttribute();

Get attribute value: var nameValue = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("name").getValue();

Thank you all for your swift responses. What i was looking for is to understand how to point a particular object after having the control list?

Also i was using the below code to disable the control for a particular section of fields and don't know where it is going wrong. Used the parameters in the form properties but still no luck.

function sectiondisable (BILLING, true)

{

var ctrlName = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get();

for(var i in ctrlName) {

var ctrl = ctrlName[i];

var ctrlSection = ctrl.getParent().getName();

if (ctrlSection == BILLING) {

ctrl.setDisabled(true);

}

}

}

Hi

This is a modified code of yours and this should work.

I am not sure how you are going to call this function (onChange or OnLoad).

You have to pass the section name, true/false

function sectionDisable(sectionName, disable) { console.log("sectionDisable function invoked"); Xrm.Page.ui.controls.forEach(function (control, index) { if ((control.getParent() != null) && (control.getParent().getName() == sectionName)) { console.log(control.getParent().getName()); control.setDisabled(disable); } }); }

Hi Vighnesh,

You can select a particular object in the library by using the index. See the code below.

var controls = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get(); var length = controls.length; var firstObject = controls[0]; var lastObject = controls[length -1];

Hope this helps.

In order to hide the section, write the Javascript function below.

function sectiondisable() { var ctrlName = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get(); for (var i in ctrlName) { var ctrl = ctrlName[i]; var section = ctrl.getParent(); if (section != null) { var ctrlSection = ctrl.getParent().getName(); if (ctrlSection == "BILLING") { ctrl.setDisabled(true); } } } }

Hope this is your requirement.

Hi Vighnesh,

1. If you need to just disable a particular control, you can use any of the following:

1. Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("fieldSchemaName").setDisabled(true);

2. Xrm.Page.getControl("fieldSchemaName").setDisabled(true);

2. If you want to find a particular attribute/object after using Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get(), then you can need to loop through all controls till you get the control you require using the schema name as follows:

var controls = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get();
for (var i in controls) {
var control = controls[i];
if (control.getName="fieldAttributeName") {
control.setDisabled(false);
}
}
