Open the native Lightning Edit Modal from Skuid

There may be times where you want to launch the default Edit Modal on a Lightning Detail page from Skuid. You can! You need a simple Aura component to accept the Event from Skuid. Component: <aura:component implements=“flexipage:availableForAllPageTypes,force:hasRecordId” access=“global” > <aura:handler event=“skuid:event” action=“{!c.handleShowModalEditEvent}” /> </aura:component> Controller: ({ handleShowModalEditEvent : function(component, event, helper) { let recordId = component.get(“v.recordId”); var editRecordEvent = $A.get(“e.force:editRecord”); editRecordEvent.setParams({ “recordId”: recordId }); editRecordEvent.fire(); } }) Add the above Custom Component to your Lightning App Builder Detail Page along with your Skuid Page. In your Skuid Page, create a snippet like this: let skuidAuraEvt = window.$A.get(“e.skuid:event”); skuidAuraEvt.setParams({ “name”: “openEdit”, “source”: “skuid”, }); skuidAuraEvt.fire(); Put that on a button or any other Action and the E

Source field default on NLX default to null instead of Id

On NLX, the Salesforce default of Id is automatically defaulted as the source field. On NLX, it would be a rare exception for that to be the actual field. Personally, I feel it would be better to default to null rather than defaulting to something that is more than likely incorrect.

Clone row on page

Sometimes I just want to clone a row on an existing row on the page without having to create another model just for this purpose.

Client-side filtering of UI model fields

I have searched the community. This is not a new idea/request. I can see technical responses why this isn’t possible with Skuid. The desire is to do a client-side filter of a UI Only field. Without this ability, we are forced to create a database view with the calculated field and then use the view as our data source rather than the table. It works, but it is a lot more painful than adding a UI field and doing a client-side filter.

Design System - Move Component Elements to it's own tab

Just think it would be a slightly better UX to have component elements moved to it’s own tab between variables and components. An icon can be used instead of text to make space horizontally. It’s odd to navigate to another list of “components” that aren’t really components in their own right.

Add Icons to the Design Systems

First thought: Most of the icons available have additional options built in if only they were exposed in the page builder. Second thought: I hate repeatedly looking for the icon I’ve been using throughout the org. The “what was that icon for this?” thought. Third thought: This can easily be slotted into the Design System with all the same types of controls as other component elements like buttons and fields. In this way we can customize things like this stuff for Font Awesome 4.fontawesome.com Font Awesome Examples Font Awesome, the iconic font and CSS framework Then we can additionally give the icons descriptive names to easily find them. Fourth thought: I would be awesome if icons could be set as a favorite and listed in their section when selecting icons. Final thought: Font Awesome 5 Pro with styling and Icon Wizard!!! Oh my lord it’s so damn slick!!!fontawesome.com Rocket Classic Solid Icon | Font Awesome Rocket icon in the Solid style. Make a bo

Advanced Features

There are a few things that Skuid can have if only they were to put them in as advanced features section. In there each would have an agreement for each of the following: Acknowledgement of known and unknown issues. Review this list of known issues below to better understand your risks: Acknowledgement that any page and/or org using this is not supported. In order to get support this feature must be removed from the page and/or org.

Automate Action Settings

When setting a Query action, the models selected should be all the models in Active/set model condition actions immediately preceding. When setting the Behavior to Activate and Set Value on the Active/set model condition actio, the value should default to {{Id}} when condition is a lookup to the same object this action is being called from. Save model changes should auto select any models being updated in any row from actions preceding it. There are more I’m sure, but these are the obvkous ones.

Page Builder - Double clicking that leads to a modal, sliding panel, or drawer should open it

There are so many times that I need to navigate through a series of drawers, modals, panels, etc. Currently this is possible for modals and drawers when the actions are directly in the actions. This doesn’t work in the following situations. Sliding Panels anywhere Action Sequences for any of the three above types from Actions Sequences tab Action Sequences being used as an action Modal Actions Probably a ton more places, but it would be great to have for UX.

Auto Add Complimentary Actions

Adding Block UI with message should add Unblock UI at bottom of list. Adding Activate/Set model condition should add Query models immediately after unless there’s one already. There’s likely more of these, but these two are the obvious ones for me.

Actions Button Options UX Suggestions

There are a few UX gripes I have in the Actions property pane. Buttons only show when selected. This is especially bad adding multiple fields when creating or updating rows. Same thing when wanting to remove multiple. 3 clicks vs 1 click Options are always behind the 3 dots when 2+ options are available. With the addition of undo and redo, we should be able to put the emergency brake down now. Set all options as Icon only with tooltip instead of text.

Move all action properties to properties pane

The number of actions can sometimes get to be quite longer. For Update Rows & Create New Rows this issue is easily exasperated when setting many fields.

Unique Action Icons

Surprised I’m the first to notice this. All actions have the lightning bolt icon. It would be much easier to find the desired action than looking at the text only if they all had unique icons.

Accordion Table Actions

Based on this post for a simpler more direct solution. Add Accordian component actions “Open All Sections”, “Close All Sections”, “Open X Section”, and “Close X Section” where X is either the heading or id if you add this property to sections. Displaying error messages when Accordian section is collapsed Questions Skuid currently do not evaluate the Required fields if they are inside of a collapsed Accordian section, is there any action that would open the Accordian sections on the click of a button and display error messages on the Required fields to the users? Any suggestions would be of great help.
