Extended Options

Learn about Extended Options attribute.

The following options are available:

  • showOnlyForAffiliations: Use this option to provide additional information when the Affiliation View is active. For further details, see Affiliation View.

    Example: Add Company as a linked field to an Activity (MA) sub-list and define showOnlyForAffiliations=true for this field. Thus Company is only displayed when the Affiliation View is active and MA records for various affiliated companies are listed.

    In the Modify List Fields dialog fields with showOnlyForAffiliations=true are displayed with status "hidden" when the Affiliation View is not active.

    Note: The Hide Field attribute overrules showOnlyForAffiliations=true.
  • UseRootRecord: To display the titles of the D3 SubList entries as links, define UseRootRecord=true under Extended Options. Use this in order to be able to open a reconstructed serial letter document by clicking the field "Title" from D1 in a list of document links (D3).
  • wildCardEnclose: If the Auto-Wildcard Search field attribute is enabled a wildcard character * is added at the end of the search string. Specifying wildCardEnclose=true as extended option adds the wildcard character before and after the search string. For further details, see Auto-Wildcard Search.
    Note: Using a wildcard character before and after the search string may result in a severe performance decrease, especially for large amounts of data, and should thus only be enabled if absolutely necessary.
  • autoComplete: Auto-completion of field attributes is disabled if you set this value to “autoComplete=false”.
  • actionNoFocus: Set this extension option to true to ensure that on pressing the TAB key the input focus moves to the next field in the tab order. If this option is not set on a field then the focus moves to the magnifier and clear selection action icons before moving on to the next field. This requires multiple TAB key presses for the user to move focus to the next field.
  • useWildcardForOrgGroup - Use this option for Participant Id fields to control organizational group rep addition to a filter. If it is set to true, organizational group Rep Id is added as a wildcard to enable search by Rep Id only. The following is an example extended option setting:
    { 
    widgetOptions : { 
    useWildcardForOrgGroup : true 
    } 
    }
