I have an attribute selector and I wish to use USE FIRST option on it. So I uncheck the apply selection as a filter. But doing so, makes my selector empty. It does not show any data. And when I use apply selection as a filter, it shows the data.
Does any one have any idea, why it might be happening?
When you apply selection as a filter, the request is sent to the iServer and then the browser receives it. However when we dont select that check box, the selector request is not sent to iServer. It is more of the operation happening at the browser level. I am not sure why you are not seeing data at all.

ADFv2 seems to be allowing accessing Output of an activity using #('activityname').output but in the monitor we also see a 'Details' component for certain activity types (e.g. HDInsightHive, SQL etc), so is there any way we can access it? It contains very valuable information and it would be great if there is a way to access it somehow. The ADF drop down (adding dynamic values) obviously doesn't show it. This internally available information if exposed via UI would be a great plus.
The following screenshot shows how the detail window appears, basically one has to click on this yellow highlighted icon:-
Now maybe i know your concern.You just wonder whether information could be accessed in the Details window. For example,my test copy activity:
Actually,based on my observation, the information listed in above window are exactly information in the error output.No more additional monitor information,just more readable and clear.
Besides,we can't find any more object of Activity Run Response from REST API.
So,if you are interested in the details info,please refer the output object.
I created a plugin that should upload the contact entity "entityimage" to an external storage.
The code itself should works (it works as a console app), but I am unable to add a step that trigger on "entityimage" change as I can't find it in the filtering attribute list in the Plugin Registration Tool.
Is there a way to trigger this plugin only when "entityimage" change?

Reviewing the Contact's entityimage field in the Metadata Browser indicates that it is a "Virtual" field, which may be why it is unavailable as a filtering attribute.
Also, according to the SDK there does not appear to be any other message available besides "Update" on the Contact that could be used to indicate that the entityimage has changed.
And, changing the image through the UI does create an Audit History entry, however, it is a generic "Update" entry, with the old value and new value blank.
It appears that triggering a plugin on change of only the entityimage field is not possible, nor do there appear to be any OOB hooks to see if that field has changed.
The only other think I can think to research is Change Tracking. Otherwise it looks like you may have to upload the image on any Update of a Contact.
Or, you could sync the image URL's from CRM to an external system and compare the one in CRM to the external system before uploading.
Strangely enough, if you don't set any filtering attributes the plugin does get triggerd when changing the image, but i guess this also means that all field changes will trigger it.
I have an input form in which users submit multiple types of information to the database.
Is there any way I could provide an example input of what should go in each field, upon the form loading?
Some fields I'd expect a small paragraph of text, others are dropdowns. The dropdown fields I wouldn't need to put an example of course, just the string text fields. If I try and include an example in the Default value for example, it would save the default value, which I wouldn't want.
Any help is greatly appreciated - It's worth noting I'm quite new to Access & coding in general.
I agree you probably don't want to use default values, or actually enter dummy data into the actual controls for the reason you mention: saving dummy values to the table.
A few possibilities:
Use a custom tooltip. You can do this by editing a control's "controltip text" property. Keep in mind that tooltips are only visible to the user when they hover the cursor over the specific control.
Add a label below the input control that describes the information that should be put in the control. This would always be visible, but can quickly cause your form to be cluttered and difficult to read.
I should say though, that you want to attempt to make your forms as intuitive as possible. For example, if you expect a paragraph of text, make the textbox much larger than a control only expecting a 6 character string. The more you are concerned with UX (user experience), the greater the chance that users will pick up on expectations using subtle design hints. I highly recommend researching the topic if you are concerned that your users will be unable to decipher the purpose of your form/controls. Be sure to check out the UX page on SE.
Furthermore, you can utilize a control's "AfterUpdate" event to validate the input placed in the control as soon as the user moves away from it. For example, you could test if the input IsNumeric() to validate that numbers were entered instead of text. If text is found, you can use a message box to alert the user, and move the cursor back to the control that is invalid.
Of course, that's the customized approach to just using the control's validation rules. The only issue I have had with the standard validation rules is user exhaustion. It can be irritating for a user to deal with validation messages when they are already aware that a typo was made. With an unbound entry form that requires a save button, I usually batch all control validation into the save procedure. This allows the user free reign to skip controls in the tab order without being blocked by constant validation exceptions.
I have a form with a single text field.
On submit I would like to display another form.
I can use RESPONSE.redirect() and pass it in the query string but I would rather not.
I don't want to use a SESSION variable.
I would like to display a second form which can read this value from the request variable.
I have looked at collective.z3cform.wizard but it is not obvious how to do this.
Trying to call the view() from the button handler does not seem to have any effect.
I fall in the same lack of functionality.
For what I know, z3c.form does not support this kind of traversing.
You may remember that this functionality worked well with CMFFormController.
Actually to do this, cmfformcontroller used session machinery.
So, you don't want to use session but that's the way. At least I do so, and I'm happy.
In this way there's no need of a wrapping tool like z3c.form.wizard.
hth,
alessandro.
collective.singing has a non-session based wizard which uses hidden fields to store results of intermediate steps.
In my Manager controller's add action I want to intercept the form submission, perform a search using the submitted data, and (if the query returns any results) display a list of results to the user.
My question is: what is the best way to display the results to the user? Should I just redirect to a different action (say search), or is there a nice way to display the data while remaining in the add action (session flash maybe)?
I know this can easily be done with the ajaxHelper and I am approaching this from that angle too, but I also need this functionality for my non-javascript users.
Any ideas appreciated!
badp,
you could just have a look at one of the generated (by cake bake controller ..., resp. cake bake view) controller methods named edit and look at the dataflow there.
It should be easy to adept it to your needs from there, as you can compare the dataflow and its outcome visually.
