I meet a problem in ObjectListView. When I choose some objects or use checkbox to choose them, the function on those objects will be called by pressing a button and utilizing GetCheckedObjects().
Is it possible for a dialog showed automatically when I choose or check an object like this?
If ObjectListView doesn't support that function, is there any other ways to realize it?
According to this previous SO question, the event that is triggered when a user clicks on a ObjectListView is the same as for a wx.ListCtrl, namely wx.EVT_LIST_ITEM_SELECTED.
So all you need to do is create your dialog (tutorials here and here) then bind a function to wx.EVT_LIST_ITEM_SELECTED that launches your dialog.

I would like to know, just by subscribing to the Interactable OnClick event, if I pressed the button with my left or right hand. Would that even be possible without passing this information along with the OnClick event?
The button has quite the logic to go through until it decides to accept a click request, so replicating all of that via global listener is not feasible.
Is it possible to get that information OnClick from somewhere else? Is it possible to query the potential click sources for who that was?
Without altering the Interactable class the only way I found was to query the FocusProvider for the active pointer, which must have been the one pressing the button (in my case):

Setup your controllers, take note of the axis name, in code you can do something like this in any GameObject's update loop:
if (Input.GetAxis("Axis1D.PrimaryHandButton") > 0.5f) {
// this axis (button) is pressed do something
}
Am I able to grab a screen that is created by a programmatically triggered button push call and populate it with values?
My specific example is that I want to grab the new e-mail screen that is made when I execute this code:
CRCommunicationDraft graph = PXGraph.CreateInstance<CRCommunicationDraft>();
graph.AddNew.PressButton();
I want to grab the screen created after AddNew.PressButton() is executed. Is there any way to do this?
For this specific case, I think is answered here:
How can I open an editable, sendable e-mail screen with prepopoulated values?
For most cases you want to:
Override the Action Handler of the button. You can use OVERRIDE METHOD button of customization editor for that. In your case override the AddNew action event handler.
Create a new graph instance for your target screen, here it is CREmailActivityMaint.
Assign to or insert a record into the current DataView of that graph, in your case use CREmailActivityMaint.Message DataView.
Redirect to the screen, using PXRedirectHelper class.
Have a custom JS function that gets called when a ribbon button is pressed in the context of a form. In my custom JS function I need to know what form field had the focus just prior to the ribbon button being pressed. I've tried 2 ways (below) without success. Is there any way to do this reliably?
Way #1
According to this, I can get the control I want passed as a parameter to my JS. I've tried using both PrimaryControlId and PrimaryControl parameters.
<JavaScriptFunction FunctionName="OnCustomBtnFunc"
Library="$webresource:myJSfile.js">
<CrmParameter Value="PrimaryControlId" />
<CrmParameter Value="PrimaryControl" />
</JavaScriptFunction>
For both, I get an object passed to OnCustomBtnFunc() but it does not seem to enable me to determine which form control had the focus prior to the ribbon button being pressed.
Way #2
I call Xrm.Page.ui.getCurrentControl(). This works for form fields of some types but not others e.g. if it is a string field it works but I get null for a lookup.
you won't like this answer, but you can use JQuery to quickly grab every Control in your Form and assign it an OnBlur event. This event can either assign the ID or the control itself to global variable, which you will make accessible to your ribbon (which fires from a different scope).
People do not like this approach because of the different context scopes of the variables and because it involves playing with "unsupported" features of plain HTML. However, if you ask only the question "how" and not "should we", then this is an easy way for "how" you would do this.
In my Android project I've already created a custom dialog: A class named SelectColorDialog, extending Dialog, that allows the user to view a large matrix of color cells in order to select a particular color. The dialog returns the selected color value (as Integer) to the dialog initiator – typically an Activity – via a callback function.
I've a similar custom dialog, SelectTypefaceDialog, to allow easy font selection. A list of available typefaces are shown, as ListView rows, each identified by name and with an associated short sample text rendered in that typeface. The available typefaces include usual droid fonts, such as NORMAL, MONOSPACE, etc. as well as any externally sourced TTF font files that the user cares to load into a particular subdirectory on the SDCard.
These custom dialogs were not initially designed to be used directly in conjunction with SharedPreferences, preferences definition XML files or with any PreferenceActivity. Instead of, each dialog can be popped up from any activity, via the user pressing a button or via a menu item. The activity classes that create these dialogs also have internal callback classes, selection event listeners, to detect when the user selects a color or font.
These two dialogs do not have OK and Cancel buttons. Instead, the user just clicks on an item - a view of some kind - in the dialog to select the corresponding color or typeface value (implicit OK) or else presses the device’s back button to dismiss the dialog with no action taken (implicit Cancel).
I would now like to go further and incorporate these two custom dialogs into the shared preferences framework via a preferences.XML and an associated PreferenceActivity.
I would prefer to base two DialogPreference subclasses directly on these existing dialogs if possible, but I cannot see how to do so. I suspect that I cannot, and that I'll need to start all over again, and copy or adapt all the java code that is presently in the custom dialog classes – for color or font display and selection – directly into the custom DialogPreference classes instead, perhaps by overriding onCreateDialogView() and/or other methods?
This question may be a bit old, but I hope to help those, looking at the same problem in future: just extend Preference instead of DialogPreference. DialogPreference is designed badly and expected "official" way to use custom Dialog - overriding protected showDialog method does not work, because this single method contains half of class logic.
I have an extension pages dialog box that I placed in a custom control. The dialog box is used to search for cost centers and return information such as market, cost center number, cost center name etc.
A "Select" button is pressed and the dialog box appears. The user searches for and selects their cost center. The OK button is pressed and it closes the dialog box and updates the various fields on the xPage.
A couple of questions.
Currently the "Select" button on the CC needs to know and refer to the name of the dialog box control within the CC. Seems to me that this is not the best practice. My end user programmer needs to know the ID of that dialog box control within the CC. Is there any way for my "Select" button could "show" the CC and the CC would actually show the dialog box control?
My CC makes use of custom properties to store the various document fields from the selected cost center. The OK button then uses these properties to set the various fields on the xPage. This again does not seem to be a best practice. If I wanted to use that CC in another application then I might need to edit the code in the OK button. Is there a better way to deal with this? Like I can set properties for a CC when I drop it on my xPage, is there a way I can tell it the code that I want to execute when the OK button is pressed?
One thing I thought was to have properties for the fields that need to be updated by the OK button but that does not seem to be so flexible.
For the issue of needing to know the id not sure if theres a typo but I don't understand why its bad that a select button inside a cc needs to no the id of the dialog to open it? did you mean the select is outside the cc? either way have you tried anything like creating a property on the custom control so that from outside it you can set something maybe
<xc:mycustomControl showDialog="false">
and then when something outside it happens change showDialog and refresh the cc, then inside the cc you can have a before / after page load to determine what happens when showDialog is true / false.
For your second issue it sounds to me like this should be using a domino document structure. Rather than the dialog pulling out each piece and the ok button updating, what I would do is have a domino doc data source on the page. when something is selected through the dialog I would update the document this source is pointing to and have all the fields bound to what ever fields they need to be. This way after something is selected the fields will just update to what ever the document contains, and it will be much more re useable so long as the domino docs have the same field names
