We had an issue during testing, when a custom activity record was accidently added to an inactive parent record. On the FormLoad event, I thought I would disable the Timeline control if the parent record statecode = 1. Well that was the theory! According to the docs:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/model-driven-apps/clientapi/reference/controls#timelinewall-control-type I should be able to use setDisable() but this doesn't appear in VsCode .

I have updated @types/xrm but I don't think this the issue, nor do I think the setDisabled() method is available in the other controls. So what is missing?

Unfortunately, my attempt to circumvent the type restrictions appears to work but has no impact on the Timeline.

    
        let myStandardControl = formContext.getControl<Xrm.Controls.StandardControl >("Opendays");
    
        if (myStandardControl != null)
        {
            alert("found control");
            // disable the control
            myStandardControl.setDisabled(true);

            alert("disabled control " + myStandardControl.getDisabled());
        }
