How to create a specific window from create table action

Support
#1

Hi,

I have created a different window for the create action. I thought I could open a different window by specifying the windowType in XML but it does not seem to work. How can I specify that a different window than the standard edit window should be opened?


            <actions>
                <action id="create"
                        windowId="qms$Organization.new"/>
                <action id="edit"/>
                <action id="remove"/>
            </actions>

Regards, Edwin.

Sorry, this does work. I somehow had the controller extending AbstractWindow instead of AbstractEditor.

This also works although I prefer the declarative way:

package com.xl2build.qms.web.organization;

import java.util.Map;

import javax.inject.Named;

import com.haulmont.cuba.gui.components.AbstractLookup;
import com.haulmont.cuba.gui.components.actions.CreateAction;

/**

 */
public class OrganizationBrowse extends AbstractLookup {
	@Named("organizationsTable.create")
	private CreateAction orgCreate;

    @Override
    public void init(Map<String, Object> params) {
    	orgCreate.setWindowId("qms$Organization.new");
    }
}

Hello.
It is possible to define custom windowId in the screen controller.
The code below should work.


@Named("someEntitiesTable.create")
    private CreateAction someEntitiesTableCreate;

    @Override
    public void init(Map<String, Object> params) {
        someEntitiesTableCreate.setWindowId("project$customeditorscreen");
        super.init(params);
    }

Is it possible to have multiple edit actions, each opening their own screen? All the examples I have seen so far seem to replace the create/edit action.
