Hey all,
I have several views, each with the a workflow status button that allows a user to change the status of a view record. I have used these views as embedded views.
At present I have got it so that is something is not complete…then the Complete button appears and vice-a-versa.
The only problem that is annoying me a bit is that when i view one of my forms with the embedded views…both the Not complete and Complete button appear until i click on a view record then the correct button will appear accordingly. Is there away that i can hide both these buttons until i select a view record?
All gven help will be greatly apreciated.
Thanks

What is the hide when forumla currently?
You probably just need to add something like status=“” then hide it…

hi,
Im currently using
status = “Complete”
and
status = “Not Complete”
but would i need something different if i want the correct button to appear once ive selected a view record. Reason being is that when i open the form with the view on…both buttons display at the top of the embedded view. If i then select a view field that has a status of ‘Not complete’ the button ‘Not complete’ button hides leaving the complete button.
This is fine and im happy with this…i would just rather have it that both buttons are hidden until a view field is selected…?
Thanks

Since you didn’t say, I’m guessing for the:
Complete Button has a hide when formula status = “Not Complete”
Not Complete button has a hide when formula status = “Complete” ?
Then I’m also guessing you’ve set the options on the view:
Evaluate action for every document change?
If that is how things are set, I would believe it should have worked… But guess not.
Can you try changing them to:
!@IsAvailable(Status) | status = “Not Complete”
!@IsAvailable(Status) | status = “Complete”
and see if that makes any difference?
