Comment on Show and Hide Buttons on Page Layouts by Vinay

Well its almost a similar approach except that i called a class using the apex execute

var StringResult = sforce.apex.execute(“HideButtonClass”,”hideButton”,{Pageurl:Windowlocation});

Using the result, i hid the button.

Also instead of directly taking the value of a field from UI, i queried for the record using SOQL. One more difference is that i used custom setting instead of separate object.

Will mail you the package link via contact page.

@Sandeep, yup you are correct as the sidebar is not loaded on these console pages. I think I heard the sales console is going to be depreciated though, not sure about service console.

@Francis, as mrnoboy said collapsing sidebar has no affect. This is not done with ajax it simply changes the CSS to show and hide the sidebar.

@mrnobody, How did you make the web service call to apex. Did you use my approach or did you find a different way to call make callouts>

nice explanation . I used a similar approach but instead put all my logic in a class and called by a web service call.

What if salesforce does a upgrade which changes the whole logic in left sidebar? Then this may no longer work. I feel this is more of a hack.

@Francis
Yes it will work even if it is collapsed

Presumably you have some kind of status field already, tracking whether the exam is in progress, completed, etc. You could have a “Not Started” status which the WF references to determine whether to fire or not.

I’ve done a number of thinks in the left nav before but I haven’t since you could have a collapsible left nav. If the nav is collapsed does the code still execute? I’m guessing it isn’t an ajax call to load the left nav up? As it seems like you have disabled the left nav from collapsing.

Comment on Super Cool Advanced Lookup Component by Scott

Had a hell of a time with some ajax components as of late. Originally, I thought I was doing something wrong, however I think I’ve figured it out, because of this code. If you guys might notice, this component is now broken as of Spring ’12 release. It looks like you are *required* to surround ajax components (including apex:actionSupport which is used here), inside a . It’s weird, cause without it, the “rerendered” components get refreshed, but the actual action you specify is never called.

Good solution, when I saw this challenge on cloud spokes, I thought of including a VF component in layout that can hide the button. But later realized that cross domain script issue will never let this happen. Usage of sidebar for the same is great idea, thanks for sharing !
