Hi,
I have a minipage that has lookup (contact) and whenever I try to add a new non-existing it suggests it as "New ContactName" which is nice, but when I click that, it opens the contact minipage and closes the original minipage and doesn't re-open the original minipage after I closed the contact minipage upon saving.
Do you have any idea of a better approach than making a custom modal?

I found this code segment in LookupQuickAddMixin and I want to know where can I change the value of UseSilentCreation?
/**
* Checks that entity has mini page add mode allowed.
* @private
* @param {String} entitySchemaName Name of the entity.
* @param {Array} [additionalDefaultValues] Additional default values.
* @return {Boolean} True, if feature UseSilentCreation is turned off, and entity has add mini page.
*/
_needOpenMiniPage: function(entitySchemaName, additionalDefaultValues) {
const entityStructure = this.getEntityStructure(entitySchemaName);
if (!entityStructure) {
return false;
}
const notUseSilentCreation = !Terrasoft.Features.getIsEnabled("UseSilentCreation");
const editPages = entityStructure.pages;
const typeLookupItem = additionalDefaultValues?.find((item) => item.attributeName === "TypeLookup");
let page;
if (typeLookupItem) {
page = editPages.find((page) => page.UId === typeLookupItem.value);
}
page = page || Terrasoft.first(editPages);
const hasAddMiniPage = page?.hasAddMiniPage;
return notUseSilentCreation && Boolean(hasAddMiniPage);
},

Hello,
It seems that this was already customized since OOB does not allow adding new records to the lookup inside the mini page.
As for the UseSilentCreation - it's a system feature with the UseSilentCreation code according to the code in the very same LookupQuickAddMixin
Go to
/0/Nui/ViewModule.aspx#Section/AppFeature_ListPage - for old UI
/0/Shell/#Section/AppFeature_ListPage - Freedom UI
find the UseSilentCreation feature (if the record is not present there - create it and enable it for all employees role) and relogin to the app.
