Is there a way to add a new button to ALL PAGES in CRM?
I have tried different ways but in some views, the new button is shown at the end. Im trying to found a way to create a button and place it as first button, to any view, entity and page in CRM. Is this accomplisable?
I'm afraid that out-of-the-box buttons will often take precedence over custom buttons, and the only way to change that would be to hide the out-of-the-box buttons.
I'm assuming you are adding the button via the Application Ribbon, correct? (not every single form and grid)
You can add items to the "Jewel", (the dropdown from "File" in the top left). It's not exactly the same as putting it in the ribbon because you have to make an extra click, but it should show up globally.

In my MVC4 project I have used an Editor Template for user input. I have define a constant(say 4) and called it in a for loop, so there is always a constant number of 4 templates displayed on the view.
I want to change this and make it dynamic, ie when the user clicks on a button, a new Editor Template should be displayed dynamically. When he again clicks on the button, a third one will be displayed and so on.
Do I need to use angularJS for this or is it possible to do it in .net itself? How do I achieve this? Thanks.
I want to make a program that has a couple of categories on the top that you can navigate through. for instance: 'Home' 'Patients' 'Appointments' 'History' etc..
Every category you click shows its own buttons and labels on the screen.
(Just like the categories you see when you go to the Properties of any file on the desktop: 'General' 'Sharing' 'Security' 'Previous Versions' ...)
How do I do that?
If I put all the buttons and labels on the screen and just change their .Visible from True/False based on what category I click, you can see the controls appear and disappear in runtime which is not the correct way to do this obviously.
Any suggestions? is there a Tool that I can use?
Sincerely,
Not sure what you meant, but you should consider using the MDI Application design.
Basically it allows you to create a program in which multiple forms can appear, and each form has its own controls. Most of the time, these type of application use a menu bar, for an easy navigation throughout the program.
Following these steps:
Open the Weather app.
Right click
Click on places
See that little item with the + symbol? I want to do something exactly like that, the looks and behaviour.
Assuming you are just trying to get some basic ideas about metro-ui controls and you are on Release Preview.
When you do right click, the control that's being triggered is called App Bar. The "place" button is a App Bar Command. Clicking on the button will take you to another page (HTML or XAML). This page contains a ListView control with GridLayout. You can dynamically change the ListView Template and assign different actions to the itemInvoke event.
Here is a quick tutorial for App Bar and commands:

I made a notepad using vb 2008 and I am facing a problem who I'd make the Statusbar.
any idea will be great.
Note: I am using the Textbox to read and write text
Thank you
You need to add a StatusStrip control to your form.
To find it, open the Toolbox, expand the "Menus & Toolbars" section, and double-click on the one named "StatusStrip".
Double-clicking on the control in the Toolbox will automatically add it to your form, and dock it along the bottom, just like it is in Notepad.
Once the control is there, you can customize it by changing properties in the Properties window. If you want to add information to the status bar, you do that by adding sub-controls inside of it. Click the drop-down arrow next to the "new" icon, and you'll see a list of possible choices:
"StatusLabel" — displays static text
"ProgressBar" — displays a progress bar, indicating the progress of a background operation
"DropDownButton" — displays a drop-down button, to allow a choice of multiple options
"SplitButton" — displays a drop-down button that allows a choice of multiple options, but also invokes the default option by a single click on the button.
Ok so this maybe a simple/silly question but I don't know so here goes:
In access let's say I want to have a frame control, so I click the option group button and add it to the desgin surface. However, I am not wanting to use this as a option group with radio button selection, instead I would like to add text boxes instead the frame, so that when I reference the frame, it references every control instead of it, hence the text boxes, cbo boxes, etc.....just as it would if they were radio option selections.
So can you do this?
I want whatever controls I add inside the frame to be easily referenced (i.e. make all controls visible just by using frameExample.visible = true) so that I can build my own tab control groupings.....
can this be done?
Thanks!
EDIT:
What I am trying to accomplish is having a form that includes a collection of controls (input controls - cbo boxes, text boxes, etc), that serve as the Main record information. These are saved to a table via an INSERT statement on button_click because this form is unbound.
Next I have 8 categories that are relative per each main record (and data that goes along with it). Each of these categories could have a sub form area and a button click that bring it's relative form into the sub form area. These sub forms would be unbound as well as I would just save data via SQL statement. So i know I could accomplish this by running the insert statement from the parent form, on the main collection control's data that would create the KeyID number, then run a SQL statement that would turn around and load that KeyID number right back onto the page in a hidden text box.
Then when I click one of the sub forms and load its relative collection of controls, I could then save that data along with KeyID for each of these sub-forms/tables.
SO......
I was wondering if instead you could define these controls as a collection so that you could hide and make visible all the ones you need on button clicks and avoid the need for additional forms (subs). I know that if a user enters data into a text box, and then somewhere along the way that box becomes hidden, the data still exists in it and still ends up in the SQL statement....
So I want all these controls to exist on the same form, but I thought what is I could encapsulate them into a frame like an option group, then I could call the frame and all the relative controls would be called up (made visible) as needed.
Sorry for the long explanation but I thought it would help.
I do not think you can do it with an Option Group, but what you are describing is pretty much a subform, yesno?
Some examples of hiding the tab control from an app that went live in March 1998:
Tab driven by transparent command buttons over labels styled to look like colored command buttons:
Same approach, more buttons:
In this case, fake colored command buttons don't drive the tab, but insted show/hide the tab and a subform. In this case, the tab is actually driven by the listbox:
A view of when the tab is hidden and the subform revealed. The listbox drives navigation within the subform, which has a visible tab on it:
So, there's a lot that can be done without showing the tab control.
