Daer Alex, 

You can override the method openCardByMode in the detail schema, forcing the detail to open the card instead of adding a row. You can see the original method in the BaseGridDetailV2 schema in the NUI package. 

Dennis Hudson,

 Thank you I was able to override this method and it worked. For anyone  trying to do a similar thing here is the code I added to my detail schema.

openCardByMode: function() {
     const cardState = this.get("CardState");
     const editPageUId = this.get("EditPageUId");
     const primaryValueUId = this.get("PrimaryValueUId");
     this.openCard(cardState, editPageUId, primaryValueUId);    
}

I just removed the if else statement from the original method:

if (this.getIsEditable() && cardState !== enums.CardStateV2.EDIT) { 
    this.addRow(editPageUId);
} else {
    this.openCard(cardState, editPageUId, primaryValueUId);
}

I remember reading a post or Academy page about it but I have not tried it yet, myself. I want to know how to do this as well. I think they said you can apply custom CSS. Maybe this link can get you in the right direction. Let me know if you succeed.

Hello,

In your detail schema please add this part of code to "attributes" of your schema:

"UsrStringField": {

                    

                    "contentType": Terrasoft.ContentType.LONG_TEXT

                },

where "UsrStringField" should be replaced with the name of your column in the object that represents your detail.

Once done you need to refresh the page and once you click on the record in your detail with an editable list you will see this https://prnt.sc/retlu3

But as for making this field to be displayed as multi-line text without clocking on the record - it is not possible.

Hello Reid,

The easiest way to achieve this target is to specify "Review" to be an activity type by default (in advanced settings of Activity object http://prntscr.com/oq52rk). This will make all activities created in the application to have the type field being filled in with the value of "Review".

The second way to achieve a target is to create a process that will be triggered upon record adding into this detail and this process will set the value of "Review" for "Activity type" field. So once the record is added and user opens this record as an editable list - he will see needed activity type.

The third variant requires development skills. The method used upon record adding by clicking on "+" sighn is called addRecord. You can create a replacing schema for "ActivityDetailV2" object and specify your own addRecord method that will use ConfigurationConstant for activity type.

And as per your second question - you can set this string field as "Multi-line text" type field http://prntscr.com/oq5d3o and as a result it will be displayed in several rows.

Best regards,

Oscar

Oscar Dylan,

Hello Oscar,

Thank you so much for the response. Yes I am able to do either of the first two options, but the third option is, of course, preferred to make it less confusing for the user. I've tried to figure that out but I think it is beyond our skill at the moment. Need to keep learning. 

As for the multi-line text, it seems that only works in normal fields or details. But if the detail has been modified to be an editable list, it does not wrap the text into multiple lines anymore, even with the multi-line text bool checked. 

Dear Lauren,

You can try to transform the lookup field into hyperlink by referring to this article https://community.bpmonline.com/articles/how-make-url-string-field-clickable-hyperlink

Hi Dean,

The link needs to be the connected lookup record ... How would I reference this as a link?
