How to hide a shared agent from the action menu

Hi All,

I have a shared agent, which i will be calling from the action bar buttons. This agent is displayed to the user as a menu in the Action menus. Can anyone suggest me how to hide this from action menus.

Thanks in advance,

Agasthya

I guess you’ve just mixed up action bar and Actions menu. All you need to do is replace “Action menu selection” with “Agent list selection” at the Basics tab of Agent Properties (look at Designer Help/AppDesign/Creating an Agent/Triggering by event document).

I also had this problem and tried your suggestion.

However, that does not work for me. When changing the agent to “Agent list selection” and trying to invoke it from a toolbar button (or any other action button) I will get an error message: “The specified agent does not exist.”

How come? ^^

Agents in the agents list are hidden – meaning that their names are enclosed in parentheses, so that in order to run them you need to put parentheses around the name (or use an alias).

Switch from Action menu (the name means it will appear in the name) to Agent List selection (the name means it will be invisble from the menu)
