Hello sidhu sidhu!

No, I havent.

Can You write a simple line to how to invoke it?

I have to write it also into the create.js and record.js?

*Just looked to the Backbone.js site for documentation Backbone.js  (the Sugar uses this Java Script library if Im right) but Im a little bit confused which to use and off course how to use: object.on or the object.once? *(for sure can be happen to change multiple times the drop-down, not only once).

Thanks,

Regards,

Arpad

Hi Arpad Szabo

Small change of code as follows:

({     
  extendsFrom: 'RecordView',      
  initialize: function (options) {
     this._super('initialize', [options]);
     this.model.on("change:docType_c",this._showHideFields, this);     
  },
     
  _showHideFields:function(model, collection, fetch) {
          var docType = this.model.get('docType_c');// fetches  docType dropdown value
          if(doc_type === "typeB")
          {                    
               $('div[name="MOD_moduleA_MOD_moduleC_1_name"]').parent().hide();
          }          
          else if(doc_type === "typeC")
          {
               $('div[name="MOD_moduleA_MOD_moduleB_1_name"]').parent().hide();
          }     
     },     
})

You need to trigger onChange event. Place above code and check it once.

Hope this Helps.

Hello, 

at the end we used another method. 

Instead of hiding a specific related field we decided a much easier method: to hide whole panels.

There is a method to use some Dependencies in modules. 

For example, we wanted to hide a Panel with a specific related field on it.

Gone to the folder "Dependencies": /var/www/html/custom/Extension/modules/Opportunities/Ext/Dependencies

And uploaded a php file called: hidetabs_opportunities

With the content of this:

   $dependencies['Opportunities']['project_trigger']=array(  // custom name of the dependecy: 'project_trigger' (this can be anything, just need to be unique in this file)
     'hooks' => array("edit","view"),  
        'trigger' => 'true',  
        'triggerFields' => array('sales_stage'),  // what field should this be triggered on  
        'onload' => true,  
        'actions' => array(  
            array(  
                'name' => 'SetPanelVisibility',  // the action you want to run - here we hide a whole panel 
                'params' => array(  
                    'target' => 'LBL_RECORDVIEW_PANEL3',  // name of the panel, can be found in the vardefs.  
                    'value' => 'isInList($sales_stage,createList("3","4a","4b","Closed Won"))',  // the formula to run to determine if the panel should be hidden or not.  
                ),              
            ),          
        ),  
        );

And done, the Panel with the related field is hiding if the sales stage of the Opportunity is not on the list.
