VIEW and ADD NEW bittons to the right of a field sometimes disappear when adding fields to a custom tab created with appginihelper? has anyone else had this problem? Appgini 5.95, latest Appginihelper js library and Chrome

This may be a delay-problem with lazy loaded dropdowns.

Are you using the new and recommended initialization for dv and tv?

DV TV The older, deprecated initialization was problematic when using it at several places or multiple times, for example using it in header-extras.php and again in TABLENAME-dv.js or even using it multipe times in the same file.

Please check if the old initialization (var dv = new AppGiniDetailView();) has been replaced by the recommended initialization.

hi jan

all instances of detailview(); were replaced with helper(); when it was first recommended. bizarrely, if i toggle the browser out of full screen mode to window mode, or vice versa, or if i size the browser window, this also solves the problem, but only temporarily. i found this out last night. i will try a different browser today and see if there is any improvement.

Well, maybe I got your answer wrong or my answer was not understandable, sorry for my English!

You have to replace...
... with ...
... and not replace ...
with Your function calls of detailview() and helper() (both lower case) will raise an error in console tab of your development tools unless you have created such functions by yourself. Both, AppGini and AppGiniHelper do not provide such functions, as far as I know.


Anyway, I do not know if this has to do with the UI problem at all, but I'd like to encourage all AppGini Helper users to use the new and recommended initialization for DV and TV.

sorry, i made a typo. i can confirm i am using .DV extension. this behaviour also happens in MS Edge. ie not browser specific.

Still don't know if the problem has something to do with AppGiniHelper.
Does it also happen without including AppGiniHelper?

im no further in solving this.
when i check Consol, I get :
AppGiniHelper.min.js:
formatted:784 AppGiniHelper | problem with label:
harris_test-dv.js:5
which references: var dv = AppGiniHelper.DV; in my hooks file

i see that line 619 of appginihelper.js has this line of code:

return AppGiniDetailView[bx_0x1b95('0xa9')]();

is this correct?

I'd like to to repeat my question from last post:

Can you please answer this.

AppGiniHelper | problem with label

This warning message (yellow) usually means that you try to change a field that does not exist or cannot be found at that moment. In these cases I always recommend double checking your Javascript code for spelling and existence of fields you are refering to, for example when using dv.getField("FIELDNAME") function.

Here there may be a different problem due to Radio Buttons in latest AppGini version. Anyway, as this is a only a (yelllow) warning and not an (red) error, this will not have an impact on the lookup fields.


(3)
Are there any (red) errors in your Javascript code that are reported in the console?
These errors (red) should be eliminated first, because they can prevent further processing. Those can lead to subsequent errors.

We should not start focusing on the lookup-display problem unless all bugs have been eliminated.

One more question: Are you using .wrap() function on fields, for example something like this?
