i have almost completed a plugin. It is all working.
All i need to do is save the preference of the text field in the admin panel
does anyone know how this is done
i need to save and return saved data back to text field
osc_set_preference('name', 'value', 'section'); and osc_get_preference('name', 'section');
'section' by default is 'osclass' and I suggest you to change to something like 'myplugin' so it will be unique

How can we filter a lookup that is in a page of the dialog process.
E.g. I have a lookup to "incident" on Prompt and Response, I would like to filter it based on the value of a field in incident entity.
I tried:
Creating new views, also setting it as default.
addPreSearch and addCustomFilter on the field on the form(Not sure how to use these scripts inside the Dialog)
Any Ideas ?
Thanks you
Unfortunately this is not possible.
As an alternative you could consider adding a query to the dialog and a page with a prompt having an Option Set (picklist) response type.
I'd like to force the user to chose between Yes and No, and not let him add an entry where the value is initial.
This is regardless of whether I check the Initial checkbox in the table definition.
Can this be done?
Domain data type : CHAR, 1 character, no conversion routine.
Value range: single values:
'1' description = 'Yes'
'2' description = 'No'
By far the easiest way is to use a data element in the table that only allows non-initial values.
If you can't change the data element, you can try using table maintenance events in the table maintenance generator:
You may be able to use event 1 (Before save) or event 5 to build a manual check, but 5 does not kick off on change.
If that doesn't work, you can still manually add a check in the PAI of the screen, however you run the risk that if someone regenerates the maintenance scree, they will forget/not know to put the check back in.
You can set the compare flag:
But from what I've seen the flag doesn't actually force you to redo any of the changes, and is still pretty easy to miss.
You can edit the screen and set the field to mandatory. Be aware that you will loose the change if the screen is re-generated.
You can do that with that steps:
in SE11 choose the Utilities menu -> Table Maintenance Generator
in the Table Maintenance Generator go to menu Environment -> Modification -> Maintenance Screens, then select the screen (usually is 0001), in the Element List Tab you find the Special attr, in the field Input, you choose Required for the field you want obligatory.
Thanks.

First making use of PaperClip.
On the Index File i have a list of the Products in the database.
What would be the best way to check if there is a image save in the database.
Paperclips fields are standard
So i thought i would be best to do a check on the image_file_name field.
So if it is null then show one image else if not null show another icon.
Any ideas here.
Managed to Solve it
If anyone is looking for this solution.
This will check any field if it is empty then display an image/icon and display another when not
<%= product.image_file_name? ? image_tag('imagesuccess.png') : image_tag('noimage.png')%>
Hope this helps Someone
I am using the Content Organizer feature to move documents of a specific content type into a specific folder in a document library in the same site. I created a content organizaer rule with a property setting that uses the property testcolumn. Testcolumn is a site column defined as a lookup to column on a custom List, testlist, and then added to a site content type. The items in this list are displayed in the Value dropdown list and I can select the specific value I want to use for this rule.
The problem is that I can create and save rules provided that there are no more than 19 items in the testlist list. When I have 20 items in the testlist, it looks like the rule was saved by the UI. If I open the rule and go to edit it, the Value for the testcolumn property is (None). If I look at the item in powershell, the Value property is equal to '0' and not the ID of the item I saved in the UI. If I delete a record in the testlist so that the total number of items drops below 20, I can save the rule without issue. I have tried different combinaitions of items in the list in case it was a text issue, but when I have 20 items or more in the list, the rule is not saved.
I have looked at the ULS logs and it states the "Routing Engine: UpdateRule() has successfully updated the rule, rule.Name=TestRule1" when I save the rule.
Thanks for your help.
The answer is partially listed here. Looks like the page renders the control differently if the number of items is 20 or greater. The content organizer rule creation page does not handle this change and does not show any error when saving the information.
I was able to get around this limitation in the UI by adding the rules through code during my feature creation event. A link to creating rules through code is here.
I want to update title field from Name column immediately after file attachment in document library. Is it possible ?
You should use workflow.
I don't know any way in which you can update any column immediately. Attach a workflow the the item creation event.
Wouldnt' it be easier to have the content provider/owner ensure that Title is the same as filename? Sometimes developing is not the only answer ... collaborate (isn't that what SP is allabout?)
