Skuid NLX, SFX, & EXP

I’m surprised Barry hasn’t suggested this. 😛

It would be awesome to see a section on the skuid__SkuidSettings page where we could manage our page Modules in some kind of convenient UI. Let’s keep all of the configuration in one place, instead of forcing admins to salesforce setup –> create –> objects –> Pages –> Modules.At the very least, a link somewhere would make the process faster.

Currently, when using a model source for filter values, the model MUST have the rows already in it for the filter to use.  This is different than the behavior than using a model source as values for lookup field searches where it will issue the remote query as the user is searching.Having to populate the model with data ahead of time in order to use it as a filter has fairly significant consequences unless the data set is small (think of an Account search field for an Org that has 100,000 accounts where you want the user to locate any account for filtering).Automatic filters behave in this manner as Skuid issues the query as the user is searching in the filter field.  The downside to automatic filters is that you can’t apply any further conditions or set a default value.What’s the ask? Have Manual filters using Rows in Model do a “real-time” search instead of requiring that the model have the data already in it.  In short, being consistant with the way all other “search” fields behave

It just occurred to me that ideas of Barry and Pat work really well together.I’m imagining and interface where we can create the custom action sequences that Barry described, which would be available across the entire org (or module).In another section of the interface, we would be able to identify universal ‘triggers’ the way Pat described, which would run in the background anytime their conditions were met.Both get to a more pervasive use of the skuid ux, particularly the action framework, to perform global actions without apex or even javascript.Love it.

I recently came upon an interesting requirement. Users wanted the ability to filter for items in the past and items in the future. But they wanted the sorting to change based on the filter the user chose. I was unable to find the option to change the sorting based on a filter or even to run a snippet after selecting a filter. I’m also unable to add a unique id to a filter (so I can target it via javascript.) Either way, here’s the workaround I created in order to accomplish this.There are some flaws with this approach, the main one being that if there are multiple dropdown filters this will target all of them and then change the sort. but in my case there is only a single dropdown.Figured I’d post in case anyone else has a need for Here’s the entire inline snippet. (function(skuid){<br /> var $ = skuid.$; var activateHandler = function(){ skuid.$("#table .nx-conditioncontainer .nx-actionselect-arrow").on("click", function() { setTimeout(fun

So annoying when trying to drop an action into the desired location. Seems to be very finicky. Also would be great if actions and models can be viewed in a popup in order to see more in the list and have a much larger list. This would greatly reduce the very annoyance of accidental scrolling when dragging and action or model.

Are there any deep dives on responsive behavior and how to construct to work on different devices.  If not, could there be one?

Hello Skuidteam! This feels like a missing feature to me, so I wanted to explain it quickly in the video below. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Hi beloved Skuid community,We wanted to alert you to the fact that the Skuid community will be down temporarily for 60 minutes on Saturday, February 13th, 2016 from 9:00 pm - 10:00 pm EST due to the community infrastructure being offline for maintenance. Your concerns are important to us so we apologize in advance for the inconvenience this may cause you. Thanks!Karen

Due to merge syntax, etc. this likely isn’t a trivial matter but would like to see an error displayed either during runtme or design time (ideally both) when a formula field contains a field token that is invalid. Steps to demonstrate: Create page using XML below Preview page Desired Behavior An error displayed either during design time, runtime or ideally both indicating the referenced field is invalid Sample Page XML <skuidpage unsavedchangeswarning="yes" personalizationmode="server" showsidebar="true" showheader="true" tabtooverride="Account"> <models> <model id="Account" limit="1" query="true" createrowifnonefound="false" sobject="Account" adapter="" type=""> <fields> <field id="Name"/> <field id="CreatedDate"/> <field id="InvalidFieldInFormula" uionly="true" displaytype="FORMULA" readonly="true" returntype="TEXT" label="InvalidFieldInFormula" precision="9" scale="2" defaultValue="aaaaaa"&gt

Hi,In Multi Select Options filters for reference (Lookup) fields right now there is not way to restict only specific records like By Record Type or Any other filter.Right now when we use a lookup field as multi select options filter then it will show all records that are related to that lookup object. But in some case we want only limited number off account that fulfill our criteria  that may be base on Record Type Or Status Or any other field.Here is use Case:1.) We have Property object that have a lookup field to Account 2.) Account have various record type as REO, Business Account, Customer etc.3.) In Skuid page properties table we want to add a multi select filter that will allow user to select multiple account in filter, so only properties that are related to specified account will be show in result.4.) That will show all accounts that are related to any record type will be shown in auto search for Account filter when we type a name of account, but we want to limit it to only “REO

It would be great or drawers and popups and such to add context to the rich text area component when it’s been assigned a model.

I needed to switch a button’s icon to the right side of the text (default is left). In order to achieve this I tried to switch the DOM elements of the button-text and icon, which was unsuccessful. After some fiddling around with the classes, I finally found a solution to this: I changed the classes of the button and the icon (using an in-line snippet) to be “ui-button-text-icon-secondary” instead of “…-primary” (button element itself) and ui-button-icon-secondary (icon element). Before: After: I hope that someone who needs to achieve this, finds this helpful. Regards

Would like to see support for bitwise operators added (model conditions, rendering conditions, formula operators, etc.).  Have a few uses cases recently where bitwise operations are necessary.  Can solve these via SFDC formulas but that ends up being a lot of formulas just to support the UI.Thank you!

We’ve been working a lot with integrating Drawloop buttons into some pages lately, and one of the difficulties we came across was passing the Session ID parameter into the drawloop button, as Skuid pages operate with a different session Id to what would normally be passed into a button from a standard salesforce page layout.We managed to bypass this by calling the record id of the custom salesforce button which contains the logic that drawloop wants.This also allowed us to run skuid actions (like saving models) prior to calling the button, which previously couldn’t be done using the standard salesforce button action in a page title component.So…essentially the url parameter you need to call is this:/servlet/servlet.Integration?lid=00b24001234HCC2AAO&eid={{Id}}&ic=1where the ‘lid’ parameter is the record id of the button being called (which you can obtain by going into Salesforce setup, finding the object, and clicking on the button and copying its id from its url.) and {{Id}} i

Currently before a custom label can be displayed in a merge template or in Javascript in a Skuid page, the custom label has to be added to the page by name. If this is not done, no error occurs but the merge simply appears as blank. Would it be possible to remove this requirement, and instead for Skuid to parse the page to determine which custom labels have been used and automatically allow for them? This is a minor issue, however it can be quite a pain when you forgot to add the custom label to the page and then can’t figure out why it’s not displaying. Manually adding the label to a list used by the page doesn’t seem to confer any benefit, as the only data added is the name. 

Currently goes to the Home tab by default after deleting the record. This is especially undesirable when skinning salesforce in totality.Please add options as per the Save/Cancel button.

All too often, it would be great to see which values are available on the current page. As an example, $Chart is completely undocumented, but a navigator/selector would be awesome.

It would be ridiculously awesome to have Skuid be available as a Apex Class of sorts. Same as Page Builder but without any components.So use action framework, javascript, etc.

Huge time saver with this added functionality. I’ve now got the ability to duplicate rather large related record sets in a production management system with very little coding. I was previously going to have to create a long drawn out snippets in order to do this 1+ times. Now, all I have to do is setup up the models as desired, query and save for every duplicate set I need. Easily saving 10+ hours.So simple, yet so powerful. I asked one my Apex Devs to estimate how long for them to do this and their response was 25-35 hours!

For one object I want to visit /{{Id}}, for another a specific skuid page, etc.
