FieldFX Lightning Package Updates

When making significant schema changes to fields and even objects, errors were encountered from almost all dependent Item Grids and records couldn’t render. It was found this was due to stored grid views. In this case, it was isolated to the Sort order stored (sort was tied to now-deleted fields).

The solution was to eliminate/reset the view and the error disappeared. The Data Grid was made resilient to handling schema changes as they occur.

We fixed a Data Grid issue where when a validation error appears, editing any field triggers more errors using the Revert Errors button for the related item.

We fixed an issue where images are displayed larger in a filter search.

We fixed an issue that resolves a continuous spinning animation after the Deselect Checkbox is selected.

We fixed an issue in the Data Grid when editing a cell, the
↻ Refresh Required button is still active and should be disabled.

We fixed an issue during the Data Grid refresh when an alert is incorrectly trigger on unrelated tickets when an item is added to a different ticket.

We fixed an issue in the Data Grid that moves the Reset Column Widths button out of the Custom Views area and onto the main grid view.

For more information, see Reset Column Widths in the FXL Data Grid.

We fixed an issue in the Data Grid where long text in a cell would overrun the width and overlap the action buttons for that cell.

Now the long text is truncated and shows an ellipse when its close to the action buttons. Hovering the cursor over the text shows the full text in a tooltip.

We fixed an issue in the Data Grid where when the browser cache is cleared and then the Data Grid is accessed, no data is displayed.

We have added the ability in the Data Grid to apply a filter to both parent and child items.

If a child meets the filter criteria but the parent doesn’t, the parent record shown. The parent record can’t be selecting. A user can perform a bulk operation on only the items meeting the filter criteria (and not on a parent not fitting the filter criteria.

For more information, see Filtering Records in the FXL Data Grid

We added a Updating…​ spinner animation when a user launches an action in the grid when the action triggers a background process which delays the action.

For example: when deleting an item on a the grid, with a lot of background updates firing, the item doesn’t get deleted right away. The user is unaware that the background actions are happening and expects the item to get deleted. Since it’s not right away, the user clicks on the delete button again which might generate an error message.

We added a Confirmation button to the Data Grid for the Date/Time Entry.

Before, when entering the date and the time, there is no confirmation button to add the specified date and time in the grid. Clicking within the pop-up does nothing, clicking outside of the pop-up does nothing, the only way to add the data is to click on another cell, and then the data entry updates the cell.

For more information, see Change the Date and Time in a Cell.

We have added a new permission to control the Data Grid settings to disable a user’s ability to change the sort criteria and to create a custom view allowing them to remove the stage number column.

For more information, see Specify Disabled Grid Features.

Now, the value is cleared until the focus moves to another cell or Enter is clicked. Existing cells can be overwritten when values in required fields are deleted.

We fixed an issue in the Data Grid where when creating a new view after hiding some columns in the currently active view doesn’t update the view. The updates are applied to the default view also.

Now, when hiding the columns in the current active view, only that view is updated.

Now, when using Ctrl to select multiple values on picklist fields, the list view doesn’t close automatically until the user clicks off the cell.

If the user sets the Max number of items in the results (Max#) plus 1 in the setting, the message over Max# available is shown in the header.

If there are, for example, 2000 items, only 500 items are shown with the message 500 items . over 500 available.

We fixed an issue for a lightning job record when using the FX Collapsible Right Sidebar when the user clicks on the pencil (inline editing on the record page).
