Waiting to execute javascript once page is fully loaded in Sugar 7

I need to hide a button in record view depending on the status

The problem I have is that the page needs to be fully loaded before I run the javascript to hide it

How can I do this?

I tried $( document ).ready(function() { but that doesnt work

Any ideas will be gratefull received

Sugar 7 is beginning to seriously depress me :(

Thanks

I tried :

$(document).on('load', function() {alert(1)})
$(window).load(function() {alert(2)})

neither are triggered :(

I think I may need to use $.when( to check if page is loaded but can't work out how at the moment

This is incredibly frustrating

Is it only me that is finding doing the simplest things in sugar 7 is really difficult?

I asked someone from Sugar and was pointed to the Adding Field Validation document but that is worse than useless for what I'm trying todo

Mike,

The url Esteban posted is actually really useful, if you need to do validation on a field. The secret seems to be the naming convention of fields. You can find more examples on the 7.2 version: http://support.sugarcrm.com/02_Documentation/04_Sugar_Developer/Sugar_Developer_Guide_7.2/20_UI_Mode...

I also just built a small gist example for you, based on the Cases module, that triggers when the priority of a Case set to High.
Write the content of the gist https://gist.github.com/esimonetti/192f02635651e8b96d91 into "custom/modules/Cases/clients/base/views/record/record.js" and execute a repair/rebuild from the administration area. Then refresh your browser on a case's view and you should see a message getting logged on your browser's console.

Cheers,

I agree it is very useful for validation but it is not working for what I am trying todo which is hide a button depending on a value.

Once I have got it working I will expand it to hide fields as well

I tried adapting your code as follows

myCustomLogicOn: function() {

if(this.model.get('phone_office') == '7777')
{
// log something on the console
console.log('executing my custom action');
$('[name="validate_postal_code"]').hide();

}
},

The function is executed but the button is not hidden

I suspect it is running before the page is fully loaded

I have proved that the code  $('[name="validate_postal_code"]').hide(); works by adding it to the click of another button

Am I missing something?

In the same boat... unfortunately. I went from feeling extremely comfortable to first-time training wheels.

I wish there was a guide like:
"if you used to do this in 6.5.x now do this in v7.x"
at least for the most common things that we used to do in view.edit/detail/list.php and metadata files.

Very very very slow progress on my end.
