Issue with Field Visibility in SOOrder RowSelected Event using checkbox

Try something like this...

protected virtual void _(Events.RowSelected<SOOrder> e)
{
    SOOrder order = e.Row as SOOrder;
    var flag = (order.OrderType == "QT")
    PXUIFieldAttribute.SetVisible<SOOrderExtension.usrAISIsSOWContent>(order.Cache,null, flag);
}

​@Patrick Chen thank you for you help, but this is not working also.

​@melvinc 

Make sure you don’t set Visible="False" in the customization project and use only the RowSelected event to show or hide the field with PXUIFieldAttribute.SetVisible.

Have you tried like above.

One option is to define that through field attributes (PXUIVisible, specifically). ​@darylbowman has a great way to handle that here:

Using your existing code, I noticed that your second parameter is set to null instead of passing the row (which you’ll need to pass to your method as a parameter value). Most of the examples that I see, and in my own code, I’m passing a row record.

PXUIFieldAttribute.SetVisible<SOOrderExtension.usrAISIsE2Shield>(Base.Document.Cache, row, val);

PXUIFieldAttribute.SetVisible<SOOrderExtension.usrAISIsE2Shield>(Base.Document.Cache, row, val);

Hi ​@Django is this correct, I tried this and used the PXUIVisible to the DAC  still not working

 

#region UsrAISIsSOWContent
public abstract class usrAISIsSOWContent : PX.Data.BQL.BqlString.Field<usrAISIsSOWContent> { }
protected String _UsrAISIsSOWContent;
[PXDBText(IsUnicode = true)]
[PXUIVisible(typeof(Where<SOOrder.orderType.IsEqual<SOOrderTypeConstants.quoteOrder>>))]
[PXUIField(DisplayName = "")]
public virtual String UsrAISIsSOWContent
{
    get
    {
        return this._UsrAISIsSOWContent;
    }
    set
    {
        this._UsrAISIsSOWContent = value;
    }
}
#endregion

public virtual void SetSectionVisibility(bool val, SOOrder row)
{
    PXUIFieldAttribute.SetVisible<SOOrderExtension.usrAISIsSOWContent>(Base.Document.Cache, row, val);

}

Just to confirm - You’ve set CommitChanges to True on your checkbox field that you want to use to (partially) control the visibility?

And you have removed the Visible=False from the layout property of your text box control?

​@Django Yes, I already did those things.

​@Django is there a way to hide the Tab itself if the Order Type equal to “QT” ?

Again - just confirming because we have a bunch of variables here:

If you remove all of the conditional code - you can see the field on the screen?

Can you try Patrick’s suggestion and change:

PXUIFieldAttribute.SetVisible<SOOrderExtension.usrAISIsSOWContent>(order.Cache,null, flag);

to:

PXUIFieldAttribute.SetVisible<SOOrderExtension.usrAISIsSOWContent>(e.Cache,null, flag);

and my suggestion would be:

PXUIFieldAttribute.SetVisible<SOOrderExtension.usrAISIsSOWContent>(e.Cache, e.Row, flag);

​@Django I tried this and it’s still not working. By the way, this involves a RichTextEdit element. If I remove the condition that hides it initially when the OrderType is not 'QT', the checkbox event works and I am able to show and hide it using the checkbox. However, the problem is that it will always show, regardless of what the order type is.

And Base.Document.Current should be the same thing as e.Row but I’m tempted to have you use e.Row in your RowSelected method.

And to make your debugging easier, let’s have you create a variable for your SOOrderExtension.

SOOrderExtension orderExt = order.GetExtention<SOOrderExtension>();

bool ShowTheBox = order.Ordertype == “QT” && orderExt.UsrAISIsSOW == true;

​@Django I apologize for late response, Im on vacation last week, I tried this same thing is happening is not working still not showing the usrAISIsSOWContent field when checkbox UsrAISIsSOW is checked.

So my next test would be to see if you can make your check box make one of the other check boxes appear/disappear. This should work, but maybe there’s something odd with that control?

Yes, I tried this and it’s working, I was able to appear/disappear the other checkboxes. It’s weird that’s other fields type is working except for this RichEdit field.

Okay - at least there’s progress. My next step would be to put a Panel or Form on the screen and then place the RichEdit in that Panel or Form. Then change the visibility of the Panel or Form, not the RichEdit.

​@Django this is kind ticky on my current setup, every field that i set is inside a form.

Is the RichEdit control alone in it’s own form?  If so, can you try to toggle it’s visibility? 

​@Django this is how I set it up. The RichEdit is controlled by the checkbox “USE STATEMENT OF WORK”

Hi ​@melvinc were you able to find a solution? Thank you!
