Open View with navigation bar

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Robin De Bondt

Hi all,

I want to open from a custom link a certain view within the system. I use the following code as found on MSDN:

var url = context.getClientUrl() +
"/main.aspx?etn=" + entityName + "&pagetype=entitylist&viewid=%7b" + viewId + "%7d&viewtype=1039";
window.open(url);

This code works fine but the view is shown without navigation bar on top which is not what we want. How can I open the page with the navigation bar?

Thanks in advance.

Robin

    Add additional parameter navbar and set it to on

    msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg328483.aspx

    When the parameter is not defined the default value is always on. Nevertheless I tried adding the parameter and it's still not working.

    This looks like a bug in my opinion.

    add parameter navbar=on in url that will open view with navbar.

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg328483.aspx

    navbar

    This capability was introduced with the CRM Online Spring '14 and CRM 2013 Service Pack 1 releases.

    Controls whether the navigation bar is displayed and whether application navigation is available using the areas and subareas defined in the sitemap.

    • on 

      The navigation bar is displayed. This is the default behavior if the navbar parameter is not used.

    • off 

      The navigation bar is not displayed. People can navigate using other user interface elements or the back and forward buttons.

    • entity 

      On an entity form, only the navigation options for related entities are available. After navigating to a related entity, a back button is displayed in the navigation bar to allow returning to the original record.

    Hi Robin,

    Do you use CRM 2013 SP1 or Springwave update for CRM Online?

    Because the navbar parameter is only available for CRM with those version:

    "This capability was introduced with the CRM Online Spring '14 and CRM 2013 Service Pack 1 releases."

    @Chitra, the property is not working like I stated before.

    @Aileen, we are on CRM Online with Spring Wave updates installed.

    Yes, you are right. We have found the same problem in Dynamics CRM 2015 too.

    var url = context.getClientUrl() +

    "/main.aspx?etn=" + entityName + "&pagetype=entitylist&viewid=%7b" + viewId + "%7d&viewtype=1039&navbar=on";

    window.open(url);

    I put navbar=on still it is not working.

    Looks like it is a bug.
