Order nodes by Node reference field Using Views 2 (Drupal 6) - drupal-6

Drupal 6.20, Views 6.x-2.12.
I have a view listing nodes of type A, each one having a Node reference field mynoderef_field. I can show A.titleĀ and A.mynoderef_field, but they show up randomly. I want to order the nodes by A.mynoderef_field, but it does not appear as a possible "Order by" field.
I googled for a while, and couldn't find the answer. Any idea?
Thanks

this should do the trick:
<?php
function modulename_views_pre_render(&$view) {
if ($view->name == 'field_name') {
$new_result = array();
$nids = explode(',', $view->args[0]);
foreach ($nids as $nid) {
foreach ($view->result as $res) {
if ($res->nid == $nid) {
$new_result[] = $res;
break;
}
}
}
$view->result = $new_result;
}
}
?>

I got this to work by using a relationship between the node A and mynoderef_field. Add node title to sort criteria and make sure the relationship is selected.

Revit API Duplicate View as Dependent Template Parameters are missing on the first Dependent View created

We are batch creating Views and Dependent Views (currently only ViewPlans) via the Revit API in Revit 2019, 2020, and 2022. We are seeing the following inconsistent results in all three Revit versions.
Below is a simplified code snippet. On many but not all groups of three Duplicate Views, some Shared Parameters that are set in the View Template are present in the parent view, and child duplicate views 'B' and 'C' but not child duplicate view 'A'.
using (var transactionGroup = new TransactionGroup(document, "Create views and set parameter values"))
{
transactionGroup.Start();
var sectors = new["A", "B", "C"];
var viewLookup = new Dictionary<string, ElementId>();
using (var makeViewsTransaction = new Transaction(document, "Create views"))
{
makeViewsTransaction.Start();
ViewPlan mainPlan = ViewPlan.Create(document, viewFamilyTypeId, levelId);
mainPlan.Name = "Plan_Name_Sector";
viewLookup.Add(mainPlan.Name, mainPlan.Id);
if (mainPlan.CanViewBeDuplicated(ViewDuplicateOption.AsDependent))
{
foreach (string sector in sectors)
{
string viewName = mainPlan.Name + "_" + sector;
var childPlanId = mainPlan.Duplicate(ViewDuplicateOption.AsDependent);
var childPlan = document.GetElement(childPlanId) as ViewPlan;
childPlan.Name = viewName;
viewLookup.Add(childPlan.Name, childPlan.Id);
}
}
makeViewsTransaction.Commit();
}
using (var editViewsTransaction = new Transaction(document, "Set view parameters"))
{
editViewsTransaction.Start();
foreach (var entry in viewLookup)
{
var view = document.GetElement(entry.Value) as Autodesk.Revit.DB.View;
if (paramSet.ScopeBoxId.IntegerValue != ActionBroker.EmptyElementId.IntegerValue)
{
view.get_Parameter(BuiltInParameter.VIEWER_VOLUME_OF_INTEREST_CROP).Set(scopeBoxId);
}
}
editViewsTransaction.Commit();
}
transactionGroup.Assimilate();
}
Screenshot of a result sample showing the missing parameter values.
Has anyone else experienced this?
It seems to me like a pretty straight-forward use of the Revit API, but perhaps the transaction group is introducing problems? I'm not sure what we could/should do differently to get more consistent results. Any suggestions?

What would be the reason that I can't make the ElementIDs of these objects in Revit match ones in a Revit file?

I am creating a plugin that makes use of the code available from BCFier to select elements from an external server version of the file and highlight them in a Revit view, except the elements are clearly not found in Revit as all elements appear and none are highlighted. The specific pieces of code I am using are:
private void SelectElements(Viewpoint v)
{
var elementsToSelect = new List<ElementId>();
var elementsToHide = new List<ElementId>();
var elementsToShow = new List<ElementId>();
var visibleElems = new FilteredElementCollector(OpenPlugin.doc, OpenPlugin.doc.ActiveView.Id)
.WhereElementIsNotElementType()
.WhereElementIsViewIndependent()
.ToElementIds()
.Where(e => OpenPlugin.doc.GetElement(e).CanBeHidden(OpenPlugin.doc.ActiveView)); //might affect performance, but it's necessary
bool canSetVisibility = (v.Components.Visibility != null &&
v.Components.Visibility.DefaultVisibility &&
v.Components.Visibility.Exceptions.Any());
bool canSetSelection = (v.Components.Selection != null && v.Components.Selection.Any());
//loop elements
foreach (var e in visibleElems)
{
//string guid = ExportUtils.GetExportId(OpenPlugin.doc, e).ToString();
var guid = IfcGuid.ToIfcGuid(ExportUtils.GetExportId(OpenPlugin.doc, e));
Trace.WriteLine(guid.ToString());
if (canSetVisibility)
{
if (v.Components.Visibility.DefaultVisibility)
{
if (v.Components.Visibility.Exceptions.Any(x => x.IfcGuid == guid))
elementsToHide.Add(e);
}
else
{
if (v.Components.Visibility.Exceptions.Any(x => x.IfcGuid == guid))
elementsToShow.Add(e);
}
}
if (canSetSelection)
{
if (v.Components.Selection.Any(x => x.IfcGuid == guid))
elementsToSelect.Add(e);
}
}
try
{
OpenPlugin.HandlerSelect.elementsToSelect = elementsToSelect;
OpenPlugin.HandlerSelect.elementsToHide = elementsToHide;
OpenPlugin.HandlerSelect.elementsToShow = elementsToShow;
OpenPlugin.selectEvent.Raise();
} catch (System.Exception ex)
{
TaskDialog.Show("Exception", ex.Message);
}
}
Which is the section that should filter the lists, which it does do as it produces IDs that look like this:
3GB5RcUGnAzQe9amE4i4IN
3GB5RcUGnAzQe9amE4i4Ib
3GB5RcUGnAzQe9amE4i4J6
3GB5RcUGnAzQe9amE4i4JH
3GB5RcUGnAzQe9amE4i4Ji
3GB5RcUGnAzQe9amE4i4J$
3GB5RcUGnAzQe9amE4i4GD
3GB5RcUGnAzQe9amE4i4Gy
3GB5RcUGnAzQe9amE4i4HM
3GB5RcUGnAzQe9amE4i4HX
3GB5RcUGnAzQe9amE4i4Hf
068MKId$X7hf9uMEB2S_no
The trouble with this is, comparing it to the list of IDs in the IFC file that we imported it from reveals that these IDs do not appear in the IFC file, and looking at it in Revit I found that none of the Guids in Revit weren't in the list that appeared either. Almost all the objects also matched the same main part of the IDs as well, and I'm not experienced enough to know how likely that is.
So my question is, is it something in this code that is an issue?
The IFC GUID is based on the Revit UniqueId but not identical. Please read about the Element Identifiers in RVT, IFC, NW and Forge to learn how they are connected.

Sitecore HOWTO: Search item bucket for items with specific values

I have an item bucket with more then 30 000 items inside. What I need is to quickly search items that have particular field set to particular value, or even better is to make something like SELECT WHERE fieldValue IN (1,2,3,4) statement. Are there any ready solutions?
I searched the web and the only thing I found is "Developer's Guide to Item
Buckets and Search" but there is no code examples.
You need something like this. The Bucket item is an IIndexable so it can be searched using Sitecore 7 search API.
This code snippet below can easily be adapted to meet your needs and it's just a question of modifying the where clause.if you need any further help with the sitecore 7 syntax just write a comment on the QuickStart blog post below and I'll get back to you.
var bucketItem = Sitecore.Context.Database.GetItem(bucketPath);
if (bucketItem != null && BucketManager.IsBucket(bucketItem))
{
using (var searchContext = ContentSearchManager.GetIndex(bucketItem as IIndexable).CreateSearchContext())
{
var result = searchContext.GetQueryable<SearchResultItem().Where(x => x.Name == itemName).FirstOrDefault();
if(result != null)
Context.Item = result.GetItem();
}
}
Further reading on my blog post here:
http://coreblimey.azurewebsites.net/sitecore-7-search-quick-start-guide/
Using Sitecore Content Editor:
Go to the bucket item then In search tab, start typing the following (replace fieldname and value with actual field name and value):
custom:fieldname|value
Then hit enter, you see the result of the query, you can multiple queries at once if you want.
Using Sitecore Content Search API:
using Sitecore.ContentSearch;
using Sitecore.ContentSearch.Linq;
using Sitecore.ContentSearch.SearchTypes;
using Sitecore.ContentSearch.Linq.Utilities
ID bucketItemID = "GUID of your bucket item";
ID templateID = "Guid of your item's template under bucket";
string values = "1,2,3,4,5";
using (var context = ContentSearchManager.GetIndex("sitecore_web_index").CreateSearchContext())
{
var predicate = PredicateBuilder.True<SearchResultItem>();
predicate = PredicateBuilder.And(item => item.TemplateId == new ID(templateID)
&& item.Paths.Contains(bucketItemID));
var innerPredicate = PredicateBuilder.False<SearchResultItem>();
foreach(string val in values.Split(','))
{
innerPredicate = PredicateBuilder.False<SearchResultItem>();
innerPredicate = innerPredicate.Or(item => item["FIELDNAME"] == val);
}
predicate = predicate.And(innerPredicate);
var result = predicate.GetResults();
List<Item> ResultsItems = new List<Item>();
foreach (var hit in result.Hits)
{
Item item = hit.Document.GetItem();
if(item !=null)
{
ResultsItems .Add(item);
}
}
}
The following links can give good start with the Search API:

Creating alerts from changes at the item level in Netsuite

I am trying to incorporate a check at the item line level when creating an invoice. Basically if they are adding an item within a certain category (custitem8) i need an alert to pop up for the sales rep.
Not sure if this should be using fieldchanged or validateline.
Sorry Im not really a programmer and am learning on the job mostly by trial and error. Thanks for your help.
function ValidateLine(type)
{
if (nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue('item', 'custitem8') = 'Order in Only - Not For Trade Guide')
{
alert("Order In Only, Please contact Purchasing");
}
return true;
}
The suggested code will not work, instead of using nlapiGetLineItemValue use nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue.
the code should look like this.
postSourcing(sublistId, fieldId) {
if(sublistId == "item" && fieldId == "item") {
var itemId = nlapiGetCurrentLineItemValue(sublistId, fieldId);
var category = nlapiLookupField("item", itemId, "custitem8");
if(category == "Order in Only - Not For Trade Guide") {
alert("Order In Only, Please contact Purchasing");
}
}
}
I'm assuming you just need an alert when the user selects a line Item? If so, I would suggest using postSourcing(sublistId, fieldId) (though using validateLine(sublistId) works just fine).
As for the actual function content, I'm assuming (based on the field ID) "custitem8" is a field on the Item record. If so, you will have to load the field from the Item record first.
Based on my understanding of your post, I would go about it like this:
postSourcing(sublistId, fieldId) {
if(sublistId == "item" && fieldId == "item") {
var itemId = nlapiGetLineItemValue("item", "item");
var category = nlapiLookupField("item", itemId, "custitem8");
if(category == "Order in Only - Not For Trade Guide") {
alert("Order In Only, Please contact Purchasing");
}
}
}
And just a note, I don't really know the data type of the "custitem8" field, so I'm just assuming it's a free-form text field.

How can I transform a notes view to a html nested list?

I would like to re-use a notes view in a web browser, Therefor I need the notes view (with response documents hierarchy) represented in HTML as an unordered list (ul) with list items (li).
What SSJS code should I use to compute this list?
None.
If you can edit the view, set it to passthru HTML and add one column at the beginning and end with the list tags. Set them hidden from client.
Or bind it to a repeat control and have the Li tags inside with computed text bound to the view columns. No SsJS in both cases.
NotesViewEntry.getPosition(Char separator) gives a hierarchical output. For example with the separator defined as "." it will give 3 for the third top-level entry, 3.5 for the fifth child of the third top-level entry, 3.5.7 for the seventh child of the fifth child of the third top-level entry.
To elaborate on Stephan's second option, a Repeat Control doesn't care about the structure of the data it's retrieving. It's a handle to a collection, where each "row" is one element in that collection. So if you point it to a collection which is myView.getAllEntries(), each entry is a NotesViewEntry.
Combine the two and you have the level of the hierarchy, if you want to just use indentation. Alternatively, from a NotesViewEntry you can tell if there are children, so whether you need to make it another li or start another ul.
Alternatively, if you want to get more elaborate, look at how I traverse views to create a Dojo Tree Grid navigation in XPages Help Application http://www.openntf.org/internal/home.nsf/project.xsp?action=openDocument&name=XPages%20Help%20Application
not the most beautiful code. I hope it works;
function getList() {
var nav:NotesViewNavigator=database.getView("notesview").createViewNav();
var entry:NotesViewEntry=nav.getFirst();
if (entry!=null){
var countLevel:Integer = 0;
var curLevel:Integer;
var list="";
while (entry != null) {
var edoc:NotesDocument = entry.getDocument();
entryValue = entry.getColumnValues().elementAt(1).toString();
var col:NotesDocumentCollection = edoc.getResponses();
var gotResponse:String;
if (col.getCount()>0){
gotResponse ="1";
}
else{
gotResponse ="0";
}
curLevel = entry.getColumnIndentLevel();
if (curLevel<countLevel){
//no responses & no siblings
var difLevel=countLevel-curLevel;
list=list + "<li>"+entryValue+ "</li>"
var closure="";
for (var i=0;i<(difLevel);i++) {
closure=closure+"</ul></li>"
}
list=list+closure;
countLevel=curLevel;
}
if (curLevel==countLevel){
if(gotResponse=="1"){
//got responses;handle them first
list=list+"<li>";
list=list+entryValue;
list=list+"<ul>";
countLevel=curLevel+1;
}
else{
//must be sibling
list=list + "<li>"+entryValue+ "</li>"
}
}
var tmpentry:NotesViewEntry=nav.getNext(entry);
entry.recycle();
entry=tmpentry;
}
//final closure, last entry could be response doc
var closure = ""
for (var i = 0; i < (countLevel); i++) {
closure = closure + "</ul></li>";
}
list = list + closure;
return list;
} else {
return "No documents found";
}
}
