ModalDialog Add-on

The ModalDialog add-on includes freely configurable modal dialogs. These modal dialogs allow the user to implement a wide variety of business processes and scenarios as it flexibly integrates an additional business logic used to interact with enaio® client and enaio® webclient.

From a technical perspective, modal dialogs behave like a web page in a WebControl/iFrame built on HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS. The integration can access enaio® services and project-specific services in order to analyze, structure, and process index data and workflow data.

The 'MDA' license is required for the ModalDialog add-on.

We offer the ModalDialog API to facilitate communication between the modal dialog and enaio®. The ModalDialog API combines the relevant APIs of enaio® client and enaio® webclient to enable joint implementation. Special events and methods arrange for the exchange of information and offer various interactions.

The ModalDialog add-on can be integrated into (workflow) forms.

• enaio® client

  • The ModalDialog add-on can be assigned to a text field. URL, localizable window titles, and localizable tooltips are specified via EXTRA entries.

    This integration can only edit the data in the AddOn field.

  • The ModalDialog add-on can be called via a script. This could be done, for example, via an OnClickItem event by clicking a button on the form.

    With this integration, all fields on the form can be edited.

• enaio® webclient

  • The ModalDialog add-on can be called via a script.

    Assignments to a text field are not yet supported by enaio® webclient.

The ModalDialog API documentation also contains a demo project that you can integrate into development or test installations to test and analyze ModalDialog add-on functions.

The ModalDialog add-on is not yet available for enaio® mobile and enaio® webclient on mobile devices.

Integration as a Text Field Add-on

Use the file selection dialog to select the axaddbrowserdlg.dll file located in the enaio® editor installation directory and the administration components.

The properties of the EXTRA entries are in JSON format.

The entries in the configuration field are structured as follows:

Example:

EXTRA00="https://optimalsystems.github.io/enaio-webclient-demo-modal-dialog-addon/index.html"
EXTRA01={"captions": [{"langid": "de_DE","value": "API-Test AddOn"},{"langid": "en_US","value": "API Test AddOn "},{"langid": "fr_FR","value": "API Test AddOn "}]}
EXTRA02={"tooltips": [{"langid": "de_DE","value": "Test AddOn"},{"langid": "en_US","value": " Test AddOn "},{"langid": "fr_FR","value": " Test AddOn "}]}
EXTRA03=1073742352 

Integration as an 'OnClickItem' Event for enaio® client

In enaio® editor-for-events, the script is assigned to a button as an 'OnClickItem' client event.

Example:

Dim ret : ret = 0
' URL to addons html/JS implementation
OXHelp.WriteProfString "DATA", "EXTRA00" , "https://optimalsystems.github.io/enaio-webclient-demo-modal-dialog-addon/index.html", osFile
' Title of addons dialog window, multilingual window titles can be passed in JSON format
OXHelp.WriteProfString "DATA", "EXTRA01" , " ModalDialog API Test Addon ", osFile
ret = Application.OpenModalBrowserDialog(osFile)
resultcode = ret
writetofile

Integration as an 'OnClickItem' Event for enaio® webclient

In enaio® editor-for-events, the script is assigned to a button as an 'OnClickItem' web client event.

formHelper.openModalDialog("https://optimalsystems.github.io/enaio-webclient-demo-modal-dialog-addon/index.html", " ModalDialog API Test Addon ", 1000, 1000);
