Skuid NLX, SFX, & EXP

Hey, In our activity history list, it is important for us to be able to see whether the task was a call log, email, task, client review, or note. This is accomplished for our organization by using the standard “Type” picklist from Salesforce. However, when I add this to the table component, the column is just blank. There is a text field instead of a dropdown in each row, and there is no column header. Is there any way around this?

How Can I Sort Contacts by Campaign as in SF Contact Views? Where it gets tricky is the Campaign Member object is the connector between Contacts and Campaigns, so I can’t quite figure out how to set up a filter on a Squid Contact Tab. Any pointers?

I have a table in my Skuid page and my page renders within my application’s namespace, e.g. mynamespace.na7.visual.force.com/apex/myVFpagethatholdsmySkuidpage. I have Export to Excel enabled on the table, but it fails because it’s trying to find the Visualforce page “ExportData” within my namespace, whereas it exists in the Skuid namespace. I could clone this page to create my own ExportData Visualforce page in my namespace, but is there a better way that keeps my on the standard Skuid upgrade path?

Can we set up SF to use Skuid tabs for objects alongside current tabs for the same objects? Is there way to do that the same way with detail page?It would allow for iterative development of the page as we refine the layout and features without interrupting our production/work-flow. Also, if there is functionality that SF has that we can’t get Skuid to do, we might need to keep using the standard SF tab or detail page. For example, some calling apps in salesforce such as FastCall and InsideSales put an app in the sidebar that enables you to call and record the results of calls without leaving the contact page. Last I checked, SF apps that put those kind of UI enhancements in the sidebar can’t be used on a Skuid page. (Is that still the case?) I’ve been told a button to switch between the SF version and the Skuid version of the object is the best way to bypass the override. I guess what I’m wondering if 2 tabs or detail pages can peacefully co-exist somehow. Instead being an OR (override

Hello where i have that option to select whether or not to show the standard Salesforce Inline Help Text for fields that have Inline Help Text defined. As i don’t want to show it for some fields. Hoping to get quick reply. Thanks. Arpit

I would like to render a custom picklist for a reference field, populating the picklist with rows from a model. There are two reasons that the standard picklist renderer with a model source doesn’t seem to meet my needs in this case: When the field is in a non-editable state I don’t want it to render a link - just text. The field is in a table, and ideally I would like to prevent the same item being selected twice in different rows by hiding items that are already in use. I have seen your code example for a custom renderer for a SFDC picklist field: http://community.skuid.com/t/how_do_i_render_custom_picklist_values This example doesn’t seem to work for my purpose because “field.metadata.picklistEntries” returns null when the component option source field is a model.

I want to create a simple custom field renderer that will display the field’s original value divided by 100. The datatype of this field is INTEGER. Can you guys help?

Hi, Anna created a page for me that I want to import into my Skuid instance in my SF org. I can’t figure out how to do this, nor find documentation on it. Thanks, Evan Burns

I have person accounts and have created the account detail page which works fine. When I try to add a related list the system stops showing me the account detail information for the record I select for previewing. Not sure what is happening. I get as far as Account ID is contact, select a contact, then the preview doesn’t show the contact details but does show the related list information. Any ideas?

Is Skuid supported on an iPad Safari, if so, what versions? We are using skuid 2.48 and are doing some testing on iPad iOS 6.1.3 and 7beta5, the table in-line edit does not work consistently and clicking on a standard table edit icon requires two “taps” (one tap seems to get “focus” and then the second tap “click”), perhaps it’s not been optimised for touch gestures? This will make our skuid app quite unusable on an iPad, can this be fixed quickly/urgently please! (use any table with in-line edit, no special page or logic required to replicate this).

We’ve been customising the CSS of Skuid pretty significantly of late. And with great success - it looks awesome! But I’d love to get a sense of how stable the CSS class structure is at this point, given that Skuid is still fairly young. I accept of course that you may adjust the CSS in a future release and that that may break our customisations, requiring rework at our end. But I have no sense of how likely that is or how comprehensive the changes might be. Are there any insights you can share? Thanks as always.

I’m creating a timesheet application and I have a tab set that has tabs for each day of the week (Mon-Sun). I have the tabs named Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc…, but I would like to also include the date which belongs to that particular day of the week. Is there a way I can add the date field from my model into the tab name?

When in-line creating and entering a new completed activity on a Lead detail page (call, email, web conference), I would like it if I didn’t have to select the picklist values for Owner ID, Status, Priority and Date every time. How can I set the picklist values to a default (my ID, completed, normal and today’s date, respectively) whenever I create a new completed activity?

How can I manually invoke a filter/condition? Take a look at this page: http://www.biadev.com/directory My goal here is to hard code the links into the custom menu I built on the left. I thought about using tabset but changed to this, the thinking there being less tabs, less tables, less page load strain this way. But anyways, how can communicate with filters directly? Can I add it in the url or if there’s JS for this could you get me started? Cheers,

I’m creating a tab page for the Campaign object and would like to setup a filter on the Owner field so that one can look at My Campaigns in addition to All Campaigns. How does one setup a filter so that it chooses the right value based on the user in Squid?

I’m still in my trial for skuid so I hope its ok I’m posting, so far very impressed. You guys are pioneers. I’m having only one issue right now: Is there a way to group tabs and add labels to those groups, for example, First Tab Group Label ----- First Tab ----- Second Tab ----- Third Tab Second Tab Group Label ----- Fourth Tab ----- Fifth Tab ----- Sixth Tab and so on. Or even better, to insert HTML in between tabs. The goal here in my case is to construct a full sidebar menu that holds both tabs and html snippets. Is this a simple matter of editing the skuids tabs component?(if perms even allow?). Cheers,

Is there any way to write code to call an apex function from within skuid?

I would like to create a aggregate/summary table that shows sales trend between months… Account | Prior Month Sales | Current Month Sales | % Change This may not be possible…I wanted to check…thanks

I have a search box on a table. But I’m not clear on what fields are being searched. It doesn’t appear to be all fields, so which types are included or excluded, and can I adjust any settings? Thanks.

How can I define a Row Action that updates a field within a row. I’ve attempted the following, but I’m getting a ‘Visualforce Remoting Exception: Attempt to de-reference a null object’ error. Row Action, Action Type = Custom, using inline snippet as below: skuid.snippet.registerSnippet(‘orderLineItem.CalculateCost’, function(params) { var price = params.item.row.Price__c; var quantity = params.item.row.Quantity__c; var cost = price * quantity; params.model.updateRow(params.item.row, ‘Cost’, cost); params.model.save(); }; Also, is it possible to just update the value when in edit mode, and let the user initiate the save. I commented out the “params.model.save()”, but nothing is updated in the UI?

Zack answered a previous question on custom settings. I can see them in SKUID and create a model from one… but the field I want to apply the values in the custom setting to (custom setting is a list of disabilities) is just a text field in the participant_disability object… so when i make a table for the participant disabilities, the “disability” field does not give me the option of setting up a drop down list… i guess it has to be a “lookup” type field to do that So how can i use my custom setting ?

I have participants, who have disabilities In the form which shows a list of participants I show only the primary disability for each participant (using child relationships) I’d like to be able to filter participants by disability, any disabilty they have, not just primary, and see the resulting participants in my list… can i do that or do i have to build an visualforce page to do it ?

I want to change the blues used throughout the components (tabs, etc) to our company red but am not all that familiar with css. How do I do this?

So, the field editor can be set to edit mode, read with in-line editing, and read only. However, I’d like to have checkboxes be in edit mode (so I don’t have to click the pencil/edit button in order to check the box) while having the rest of the field editor in in-line mode. Is it possible to set some fields to one kind of edit mode and others to another?
