Description

Placeholders, properties, and methods that can be used on the client-side to interact with UX components.

Discussion

JavaScript can be used on the client to manipulate the UX component using the {dialog.object} JavaScript object. {dialog.object} is a placeholder that is replaced with the actual JavaScript object at run-time. Methods on this object are available for manipulating the UX, including methods for saving and restoring data; working with Lists, Repeating Sections, Panels, Windows, and other controls; interacting directly with the DOM; calling into the Cordova framework; and more. See Properties and Methods below for a listing of what properties and methods are available for the {dialog.object} object.

In addition, there are numerous other placeholders available to use with your component that are replaced for you at run-time, allowing you to reference things such as the UX component's alias, the name of the stylesheet in use, embedded components, and more. See Placeholders below for a list of what is available.

Name: Description
IndexedDB Methods: Methods for storing, retrieving, and removing data in IndexedDB
UX Progress Bar Methods: UX component methods for displaying and updating a simple progress bar.

Placeholders

Placeholders are dynamic objects that can be used JavaScript code to reference objects that are defined by the Application Server.

Placeholder: Description
{dialog.ComponentName}: Gets replaced with the alias of the UX Component. For example, if the UX alias is 'DLG1', then is replaced with 'DLG1'.
{dialog.ControlIdEscaped}: The control Id of the control. Special characters in the id are Javascript escaped. You must use this placeholder (and not {dialog.ControlId}) if you want to use this placeholder in a selector (such as JQuery - jQuery('#{dialog.controlIDEscaped}') )
{dialog.ControlId}: The control Id of the control. Note: See comment on {dialog.ControlIDEscaped}.
{dialog.EmbeddedCustomComponent_[Alias]}: Used to get the Object name of an embedded Custom Component. Replace [Alias] with the alias you specified for the embedded Custom Component object. You can use this placeholder to execute methods on the embedded Custom Component.
{dialog.EmbeddedUX_[UXAlias]}: Used to get the Object name of an embedded UX Component. Replace [UXAlias] with the alias you specified for the embedded UX object. You can use this placeholder to execute methods on the embedded UX.
{dialog.EmbeddedGrid_[GridAlias]}: Used to get the Object name of an embedded Grid Component. Replace [GridAlias] with the alias you specified for the embedded Grid object. You can use this placeholder to execute methods on the embedded Grid.
{dialog.listId}: For use with the List control. Gets replaced with the ID of the current List control.
{dialog.object}: Gets replaced with the name of the Javascript UX Component Object. For example, if the UX alias is 'DLG1', then is replaced with 'DLG1_DlgObj'. Use this placeholder when you want to call a method of the UX Object. e.g. {Dialog.Object}.submit(), to submit the UX to the server.
{dialog.Style}: Gets replaced with the style name of the UX. For example, if the style is 'GlassOlive', then gets replaced with 'GlassOlive'.

Properties

_dataSeriesDataObject

Object containing data series that have been published to the client. See the Publish data to client-side UX Component property to learn more. Has the following properties:

<SeriesName>ObjectArray

Contains the data in a series. Replace <SeriesName> with the name of the series. E.g. {dialog.object}._dataSeriesData.Names. If the series does not have a named subseries, the object will be an array. Otherwise, <SeriesName> will contain one or more subseries properties containing the data in the series:

<SubSeries1>String: A CR-LF delimited string of values for a data series sub-series. Replace <SubSeries1> with the name of the subseries. E.g. {dialog.object}._dataSeriesData.Names.Firstname
<SubSeriesN>String: One or more additional properties containing a CR-LF delimited string of values for a data series sub-series. Replace <SubSeriesN> with the name of the subseries. E.g. {dialog.object}._dataSeriesData.Names.Lastname

_rsOverwriteRowMsgstring

Message shown to user when data in a Repeating Section is copied into a dirty row. If not set, the default message "Overwrite existing data in row?" is used.

_localStorageSettingsObject

Local storage settings for the UX Component.

ajaxCallbackTimeoutnumber

The maximum number of milliseconds to wait for a response from an ajax callback to the server. This property can be set in the onRenderComplete event.

dialogIdString

The UX Component name. Equivalent to {dialog.componentName}. Prefer to use {dialog.componentName}.

originalValuesJSON array

Contains the original values for the controls in the UX Component. Values are stored in a JSON array. The contents of the array are dependent on the structure of the component.

The {dialog.object}.resetForm() uses the values stored in originalValues to reset the controls in the UX component to their original state. You can change the data in this object to modify the original values for controls.

Show data in the originalValues property

var origValues = {dialog.object}.originalValues;
// Show values in a popup window
alert(JSON.stringify(origValues));

If you return JavaScript to set the row count and values of a Repeating Section in the onDialogInitialize event, you must set the original values manually. See onDialogInitialize for more information.

Original values are not default values.

stateInfoObject

A JSON object containing state information. Can be used to read and set state information for the component. See also getStateInfo() and setStateInfo().
