Hide/When?

Hey

Is there a way of getting specific action buttons to appear based on selecting a field (without opening the field) in a view?

In my view at present i have number of categories displayed with a mixture of statuses from “Completed” and “Incomplete”.

I also have an action button called “Complete” so if i select a field within my view that has a status of “incomplete”, and select the “Completed” action button, the status is changed.

I would really like it so that if there is a field marked as “complete” it can be changed to “Incomplete” by clicking on the “incomplete” button.

But… is there a way of getting the buttons to display accordingly without having both of them displayed at the top of the view??

Thanks,

You can do that since Notes 6. On the second tab of view properties check the box “Evaluate actions for every document change”.

If your hide-when-formulas are written with respect to the status field, they should work now. Note however, that this option will impact performance, so you have to make sure, that it works with the amount of production data to expect.
