Posted on by AntonioMF

Hello there!

I'm creating a Model Driven App and I want to show a custom button created on the main grid when I'm in a specific entity's view. For example: If I'm on "View A" the button shows and if I'm on "View B" the button is hidden.

Is this possible?

Any help is appreciated

You could try to use a custom javascript enable rule. You can pass the executionContext (in main grid it should be SelectedControl) to method and call the function

To pass in the execution context (form context or grid context) information to JavaScript function for your ribbon actions, specify PrimaryControl for the form context, or SelectedControl for the grid context as the <CrmParameter> value in your ribbon definition. SelectedControl will pass in the grid context, for both subgrids and homepage grids. The passed in PrimaryControl or the SelectedControl value is used as an argument in your JavaScript function for form context or grid context respectively.
Then try this code:

doSomething(SelectedControl ) { var gridContext = SelectedControl var viewSelector = gridContext.getViewSelector(); var gridId = viewSelector.getCurrentView()[0].id // I don't know if it is an array or not //If not: var gridId = viewSelector.getCurrentView().id // Now write your logic: if gridId == 'YOUR_VIEW_ID'{ return true; } else{ return false; }
