mendixlabs / inputreferenceselector Goto Github PK

When you have only read rights on the association you are still able to select a different object in that association. When you commit you get an error. It would be nicer if the widget acts the same as the standard Mendix widgets and renders as a label.

Report came in that the sort order doesn't seem to work. We'll investigate

The on-change microflow is fired multiple times instead of once if that microflow contains a refresh.

See the attachment for a screenshot. Problem is that no matter what I make the size the text is cutoff after 29 characters and then start scrolling.
It looks like the css is overwritten somewhere, because from the code I see that the width is set to 100%.
I hope you can take the time looking at this. And I still think that this should be incorporated in the standard reference selector. Now I have to do all kinds of hacking to get the button there so I can also open a form to show a list of selectable objects.

The widget does not seem to work in 6.8.1 (At least not on tablet). Not getting any errors per se, but the dropdown list does not seem to be populated

This widget does nicely do what is needed. However it loads jquery
https://github.com/mendix/InputReferenceSelector/blob/master/src/refkit/widget/InputRefSelector.js#L24

Looking at the use, it does make no sens to use it

$("div#" + this.id).focusin(function() {
	$(this).addClass("MxClient_Focus");
	$(this).css("outline", "#333 auto 2px");
	if ($("div#" + self.id + " div").hasClass("dijitTextBoxFocused")) {
		$("div#" + self.id + " div").css("outline", "rgb(0, 0, 0) auto 0px");
	}
});

$("div#" + this.id).focusout(function() {
	$(this).removeClass("MxClient_Focus");
	$(this).css("outline", "transparent auto 0px");
});

Could this be removed?

Hi,

The option "Search on empty input" works if you enter data and remove it (backspace). However I would like to get the same result when I click in an empty widget. The list is a hint for the user what the selectable options look like.

Here is the scenario: Open a page/popup with the widget. Use the mouse and click inside the widget to give it the focus. Currently it does not anything. The proposed feature is to show the dropdown/list of the first n (as configured) items.

Regards,
Paul

1.) We get an NullPointerException error when we use an on change microflow. We get this error when the user changes the value of the InputRefSelector when an on change MF is configured in the widget properties:

2.) It is not possible to add a validation feedback to the widget. The feedback is shown in a popup in stead of beneath the inputRefSelector field.

I have included the widget in a mendix 6 project but I suspect its not working as it did in version 5, its not error messages but the display behavior...

Internet explorer puts a clear button (x) on the end of every input field . It is used to clear the input field.
When using this clear button on a inputreference selector it does not clear the association.

If search method = "contains" and a few letters are typed, then after 300ms the first few letters are fixed, which are usually the wrong ones. Typing any further will result in a wrong search term.

I did some debugging and found out that the selected value is passed differently to the valueChange function on iOS.

Mind that I use the widget autocomplete set to false.

For instance, if you type "Ro" and see the option "Roy van der Valk" appearing and click on it then valueChange is normally triggered with value "Roy van der Valk" while on iOS it only contains the search string "Ro".

@JelteMX Have you got any idea why this is happening?

Maybe this is a misunderstood usage but I get this error occasionally when using the input reference selector, see attached image. The issue goes away when the widget is not used.

This widget cannot be used in Mendix 6.
