Node Settings

This setting is for appearance and behavior of a tree node.

Use the following settings to configure the appearance and behavior of a tree node:

  • Check Children: The symbol for expanding a node is only displayed if the branch actually contains records. (To gather this information, the tree view tries to load the first record of the branch).
  • Company-related: Only company-related records are displayed for this node. For example, use this flag to show only activities linked directly to the company instead of appointments linked to persons of that company.
  • Disable Tweaks: This flag is only relevant when listing activities (MA) for a company or person: If checked, only MA records linked directly to the parent record are displayed but activities linked via the Activity Participants info area (MB) are ignored.
  • Expand: When the tree is loaded, all branches with this flag are automatically expanded (i.e. <Record Count> records are read and displayed).
  • Expand Records: When the tree is loaded, all branches with this flag plus the records within are automatically expanded (i.e. their sub-info areas are displayed).
  • Hide Group Node: The group node is hidden, and records contained in this node are displayed directly under the parent node.
  • Hide Records: The records of this node are not displayed.
  • No Records: Allows you to define group nodes that contain group nodes themselves (it is recommended to assign no menu if this flag is set).
  • Readonly: Defines whether the details mask of a tree's record is editable or not. For further details, see viewMode.
  • Show Count: Displays the number of records for that node. If more than <Record Count> records are found, the user is only informed that there are more than <Record Count> records.
  • Hide GroupNode Without Children: Hides this group node in the tree view, if the group node does not have any child record to display. For example, a Ticket, Sales Group, or Activity node is hidden if it does not have any records to display.

Hide Records and Hide Groupnode

Use this combination to show documents linked to a record via D3 as if they were directly associated with the record.

Example in UPDATE_DEFAULT: Treeview FI

D3: Parent: FI | Link-ID: 127 | Flags: Hide Records D1: Parent: D3 | Flags: Hide Groupnode

You can define an InfoArea Label Text for the D3 node renaming Document Link example - to "Documents".
