Posted on by Abbod Hamwi 20

Hi,

 

I'm trying to create a PCF control, and I have a field from type Floating Point Number, I set the type of my field as FP, but that field (address1_longitude) is not showing in the options to bind it, any ideas

    Hi @a33ik ,

     

    i get to know what is the issue, in the manifest file, I have set the usage as input and not bound, even though that I'm bounding it in the form but actually it's not doing, so now it' working, thanks a lot for you support

     

    <property name="Latitude" display-name-key="Latitude Field" description-key="The latitude value" of-type-group="numbers" usage="bound" required="true" />
<property name="Longitude" display-name-key="Longitude Field" description-key="The longitude value" of-type-group="numbers" usage="bound" required="true" />

    Hi,

    I'm using the control in Account form, also for msdyn_externalaccountid it usles field, initially I tried to use my control without any field with usage=bound and that caused that the control is not appearing once I tried to use, so I'm using it only to make it appear

    Hello,

    That looks good for me. What is the type of msdyn_externalaccountid field? Also what's the type of the form you want to use your control on?

    Hi @a33ik ,

     

    This is the control manifest

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

    Can you please post your Manifest File and piece of customizations.xml where you configure your control - I mean full control - not only longitude/latitude chunk?
