Skuid NLX, SFX, & EXP

I thought that this was already an idea, but I couldn’t find it.It would be great if Pop Ups can have action framework associated to the closing of it.Even better would be the ability to block closing based on results of snippet. ie. Return True/FalseThis would allow the ability to check to see if any models have unsaved changes.This “Unsaved Changes” is probably so common that it should be it’s own property called “Close Popup behavior when their are unsaved changes:”Close (default) Block Warn

The new UI features of Banzai are incredible and greatly simplify so many things.  With things better than ever and even easier to do declaratively, I can see myself (and likely other users) pushing Skuid even further with what were once features that required JS. With all these new bells and whistles, component configuration (e.g. page title, nav bar, etc.) will become even more detailed.  In order to really take advantage of all that power and make life simpler, being able to “re-use” configuration would take things to the next level.  It’s akin to a “partial view” concept so to speak.  As a simple example, think of SFDC standard layouts with buttons at top & bottom.  Today, this is two separate page titles, each with identical configuration as there is no way to “re-use” a single page title definition (aside from custom component which then you lose declarative features).I can see ways to leverage lightning components along these lines but even then, getting lightning input back

Would be super-helpful!

Here’s an idea to make the skuid builder even more friendly for non-progammers:Add an “Open Skuid Page” action to the action framework. This would be especially useful for the navigation component.The action’s properties would include a page lookup, and a picklist for target.Then you could add additional page parameters as sub-actions (or load them into the properties directly like this idea for page includes).

As discussed in the community in the past, managing migrations of Skuid pages/pageassignments/etc. can be difficult.  Additionally, tracking pages in a VCS is challenging and often times, what I’ve heard is that a lot of users building Skuid based pages/apps have a dedicated sandbox org that always contains the “truth” (aka. latest version).With the introduction of Custom Metadata in Summer '15 and enhancements coming in Winter '16 (native ui support, enhanced permission management, etc.), my thinking is that this might be a great solution to overcoming some of these challenges.I’m curious if leveraging Custom Metadata would be a fit for pages, page assignments, etc., if this has been explored/evaluated yet and if so, what the future might hold?Thanks!

Because these are manual ‘apps’ lists that need icons… 🙂

It would be sweet if we could drag navigation items around between navigation ‘levels’, not just sort them in their own list.

Right now, when you paste XML to create a new page it takes you to the bottom of the page so you have to go back up to the top to save and begin editing.  The only button at the bottom of the editor is to find Sample Pages.I think there should either be a save button at the bottom or keep the user at the top of the page (you know XML gets long!)

If text of a page’s ‘tab to override’ property matches that of a navigation item, that item should look ‘selected.’

Ladies and Gentlemen, I am pleased to announce the first publicly available Banzai Release Candidate! Get it here. For more information about all the new features and updates, head over to the release notes. I am (almost) equally pleased to announce that we’ve also updated help.skuidify.com to reflect all the goodness of Banzai including an all new Styling Manual. You can find a list of the most important Banzai additions and updates here.Enjoy!  And keep posting on the community if you have questions, run into bugs, or just want to go on and on about how much you love Banzai.

It would be sweet to allow an easier transition/connection between child pages and master pages. I almost imagine them as two different objects with a master-child relationship like we’re used to in salesforce. It’s a little confusing to call them ‘master’ and ‘child’ in a salesforce context if they don’t behave the same way.

This is a thank you to everyone that participates/helps as well as the people who built this community. I was 3/4’s of the way through typing out a lengthy question on multiple buttons displaying multiple graphs that displaying specific info based on dif. renderings. Then I had that AHA! moment tried it and it worked. If it weren’t for me having the ability to reach out and type a question I would have spent most of the day pulling my hair out and most likely adding a few new grey ones… Sorry for the rambling I’m still running on that rush of figuring out something I didn’t think I could which I’m sure everyone knows and loves…Thanks Again to the community and all that you do!!

You can run the following inline javascript snippets from pagetitle component buttons anywhere within a wizard to navigate with javascript.Let me know if there’s a more elegant way to accomplish this! //Next Step<br>var button = arguments[0].button, <br>$ = skuid.$;<br>var wizard = $(button).closest('.nx-wizard').data('object'),<br>currentStep = wizard.steps[wizard.currentstep],<br>stepKeys = Object.keys(wizard.steps),<br>currentIndex = stepKeys.indexOf(wizard.currentstep);<br>if (stepKeys[currentIndex + 1]) {<br>currentStep.navigate(stepKeys[currentIndex + 1]);<br>} //Previous Stepvar button = arguments[0].button, $ = skuid.$;var wizard = $(button).closest('.nx-wizard').data('object'),currentStep = wizard.steps[wizard.currentstep],stepKeys = Object.keys(wizard.steps),currentIndex = stepKeys.indexOf(wizard.currentstep);if (stepKeys[currentIndex - 1]) {currentStep.navigate(stepKeys[currentIndex - 1]); }

We have a use case where long wizard pages would make it convenient to see the ‘navigate’ buttons on both the top and bottom of the wizard.Alternatively, make the ‘navigate wizard step’ option available for pagetitle components placed within wizards.

The Field Editor already comes with a Save / Cancel button… it would be awesome if we could add more buttons beside it (connected to the Action Framework, naturally). That way you could create actions & redirects for save/cancel, or have buttons like “create a new row for this field editor” if it’s empty etc.

I would like to be able to create a scaffold for an org using skuid. I’ve made a skuid page that has the skuid object as its model and displays all the data that makes up the skuid pages. If i created records in that model and saved them i’m assuming they would become valid skuid pages. I can get all the properties of standard and custom objects in javascript, so i could build default tables to display the data in all my objects… one table per page. The standard skuid table lets you do lots of good stuff with your data, including mass updates. Has anyone tried something like this ?

Create a new Skuid page and uncheck the “Show Header” and “Show Sidebar” boxes Put a “Panel Set” on the page and set the “Panel Set Type” to “Custom Width” and the “Scrolling Mode” to “No Scroll Bars”. Delete the right hand Panel and set the only panel left to a width of 900px Now build your page as you normally would, but do not use tabs. You will need to use one separate skuid page, for each document that you want to create as a pdf. Put all of your components into this one 900px panel. If you need columns, you can put another Panel Set inside the first panel. If you use tables, set the “Default Mode” to "Read Only"and uncheck the “Show Export Button”. On the “Display” settings for the table, for pagination>visible rows, select “view all”. Delete the standard row actions “Edit Rows Action” and “Flag for Deletion Action” as well as the standard mass actions “Mass Update Selected Rows” and “Flag Selected Rows for Deletion”. To get rid of the text at the bottom of each table th

The calendar component would be even sweeter if there was an option to choose multiple ‘grouping’ fields/models, and toggle between them in runtime.

We have a use case requiring calendar with 10-minute intervals. Any way this can be achieved?It would be great if skuid could simply add a “6” option to the Divisions per Hour parameter.As an aside… does anyone use 8 divisions per hour? Every 7.5 minutes?

Inspired by Pat’s go to model link idea. It would be convenient to have a “open snippet” anywhere that we can write the name of a snippet. The link would only appear (or work) if the snippet is a named javascript snippet on the page. It would speed up the process of editing snippets. Instead of going back to resources -> javascript -> renderMinutesSlider Looks like the menu has been streamlined in Banzai, so this may not be as big a deal.

It would be great if we could create hierarchy between filters. For example, I have a table called impact area, which is joined via lookup to a much larger table called impact topic. I would like to create both table filters, but associate them in such a way that if I select a value within impact area (say, Governance) the Impact Topic filter would only display to the user the values that look up to that Impact Area value (The Impact Topics under the Governance Impact Area). This would essentially make the values in a filter contingent on the selection from another filter, in cases where there is a logical hierarchy between them in the database

Often have a need to go to the associated model for the component I’m working. This can be a bit of a pain when there are dozens of models.
