Master/detail separate icon button for view and edit

Hi ! everyone,

In the list page there are edit, view, master/detail view & master/detail edit as group button. To hide the single "Edit" and "View" link/button for each record in the main table of List page by putting the following code in "ListOptions_Load" server event:

$this->ListOptions->Items["edit"]->Visible = FALSE;
$this->ListOptions->Items["view"]->Visible = FALSE;
$this->ListOptions->ShowInButtonGroup = FALSE;

This codes hide those two individual edit, view buttons but master/detail view & master/detail edit is still in group as it was. No change happened . I want two separate icon buttons (remove text "master/detail view & master/detail edit") for master/detail view & master/detail edit respectively (same as "Edit" and "View" link/button for each record). If it is not possible then are there any way to rewrite customized link for "Edit" and "View" link/button of each record which i can use same functions like master/detail view & master/detail edit buttons and remove master/detail view & master/detail edit buttons.

Thanks in advance .

You may try ListOptions_Rendering server event.

Below script allow me to create new button and execute custom command like separate button for master/detail edit and master/detail view.

// ListOptions Rendered event
function ListOptions_Rendered()
{
     // create new button for  master/detail edit on list page
  $item = &$this->OtherOptions['action']->Add("NewEdit");
        $item->Body = "<a class='ew-row-link ew-edit' title='nEdit' data-caption='nEdit' href='GrayRequisitionMasterEdit/" . $this->gray_requisition_master_id->CurrentValue . "?showdetail=gray_requisition_details'>nEdit</a>";
        $item->Visible = True;

// create new button for  master/detail view on list page
  $item = &$this->OtherOptions['action']->Add("NewEdit");
        $item->Body = "<a class='ew-row-link ew-edit' title='nView' data-caption='nView' href='GrayRequisitionMasterEdit/" . $this->gray_requisition_master_id->CurrentValue . "?showdetail=gray_requisition_details'>nView</a>";
        $item->Visible = True;
}

Now i am facing two problems:

  1. how to place this two button beside single "Edit" and "View" link/button for each record in the main table of List page?
  2. what is the code that can replace "edit" and "view" text with button icon like "pen" and "magnifying glass"?
  3. $this->ListOptions->Items["details"]->Visible = FALSE; // write this code for hide master/detail edit and master/detail view button but it doesn't work..

Requesting for suggestions from experts. Thanks

When you are using OtherOptions object to create your custom buttons, you should use Page_Render instead of ListOptions_Rendered server event, since ListOptions_Rendered will be executed each time a row of the table is rendered in that Page.

If you want to create your custom buttons next to Edit/View button, then you should use ListOptions instead of OtherOptions object in ListOptions_Rendered server event. You may refer to the generated code in models/YourtableList.php file.

It should work. I've just tried your code in ListOptions_Rendered server event that belongs to List Page of orders table, and Master/Detail View, Master/Detail Edit, and Master/Detail Copy are hidden completely.

function ListOptions_Rendered()
{
    $this->ListOptions->Items["details"]->Visible = false;
}

But in my case it is not working. showing below error message:

Error
C:\xampp\htdocs\dye_erp\models\GrayRequisitionMasterList.php(2687): Attempt to assign property "Visible" on null

what can i do now?

The list option $this->ListOptions->Items["details"] only exists if you have enabled List -> Multiple Detail Tables.

After implementation above suggestions for creating new button next to Edit/View button on each row of table, code looks like below: I want to use this button similar action of "Master/Detail Edit".

$item = &$this->ListOptions['action']->Add("nEdit");
    $item->Body = "<a class='ew-row-link ew-edit' title='nEdit' data-caption='nEdit' href='GrayRequisitionMasterEdit/" . $this->gray_requisition_master_id->CurrentValue . "?showdetail=gray_requisition_details'>nEdit</a>";
    $item->Visible = True;

After generating codes showing below error:
Error
C:\xampp\htdocs\dye_erp\models\GrayRequisitionMasterList.php(2687): Call to a member function Add() on null

Any suggestions which can solve this issue? Thanks

The error means there is no $this->ListOptions['action']. You may read ListOptions_Load for the available options.

To create additional button on each row next to Edit and View button, then you should use ListOptions_Load and ListOptions_Rendered server events.
