Enable/Disable Rich Text Editor for Notes on Timeline


Gopinath's avatarDynamics 365 CE and Power Platform

Hi Everyone,

Today I was checking System Settings to configure something and I found a setting to enable or disable Rich Text Editor for Notes on Timeline. Somehow I feel we don’t need a setting for this, who wants disable this wonderful feature. However, if anyone is looking to disable to Rich Text Editor check this out.

Hope this helps.


Happy 365’ing

Solved – window onload undefined error in Dynamics 365


Recently we got the below issue raised by the user on form load of one of the entities.


Most of the times this issue will arise because of the control / attribute being referenced in the JavaScript, being not available on the form.

And same was the case here, one of the JavaScript’s associated with the ribbon button, was referring to business process field (header_process_xxxxx) which was not available on the form.

Notes on Dynamics 365 for Phones and Tablets app – Part 7 (Custom Controls)


Check the other articles of this series

Continuing the previous post on the Dynamics 365 mobile app, here we will cover the custom controls.

Custom controls were added to the product in version 9.0 and were part of the new Unified Interface, for us to use at that time. Now we all can create custom control using PowerApps Component Framework (earlier known as Custom Control Framework).

Check out the PCF Gallery for all the custom controls developed by the community.

https://pcf.gallery/

In this post let us look at out of the box custom controls available in the product and how it renders within the Dynamics 365 for Phone App.

Let us start with the custom control for the list.

For the opportunity entity, we have defined below custom control. The Editable Grid option is disabled for Phone.

The tablet app shows the Editable grid as default with the option of switching the view.

For the Phone App, it seems Kanban’s view has some issues. We can switch to all other views configured except the editable which is not available for the phone app.



Below is the table that lists the out of the box custom control, along with its properties and how they are rendered in the phone app, for quick reference.

Field Type Control Property
Whole Number
&
Money
Arc Knob

Radial Knob
Number Input
Linear Gauge
Linear Slider
Whole Number Star Rating (max 5)
URL Website Preview
Multimedia
Boolean Flip Switch
Single line of text Input mask
Auto complete
Multiline of text Pen
Option set Option set (max 3)

Error – You have exceeded the maximum number of 2000 characters in this field while using Pen Control in Dynamics 365


We might get the below error while using the pen control.


Just make sure that we have set the field to the minimum length recommended by Microsoft i.e. 15000.


The maximum value that can be set for the text area (multiple line of text) field is 1048576.



Earlier pen control was not available for the Web client.

But now they can be enabled for the web as well.



Hope it helps..
