How can I bind a dynamically created button to a Context Element

[felix_dukek2]

Hi experts,

I am creating a few buttons dynamically (button1, button2 etc.).

I also have a context attribute (visBtn) with the type "Visibility".

Is it possible to bind the visibility attribute of each button to a element of the context attribute?

So button1 is bound to visBtn[1], button2 to visBtn[2] etc.

Thanks in advance

Your question suggests (at least to me) that you want to bind the "visible" property of the given buttons to an attribute of a context node such that the first button is bound to the first context node element, the second to the second etc.

If that is your goal, it is not possible.

However you can bind the "visible" property of each button to a different context attribute which could be defined at the context root level or inside a common 1:1-cardinality value node.

The code to do that has already been described correctly.

Hi Armin,

that was exactly what I wanted to do.

But in this case I think I will try it they way, you are recommending.

Thanks and best regards

try this code

IWDAttributeInfo visattr = wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute("visBtn");
if(firstTime){
 IWDButton button = (IWDButton) view.createElement(IWDButton.class, "button1");
 button.setText("Click");
 button.bindVisible( visBtn);
}

Hi,

Following is the code to do it

IWDAttributeInfo attributeInfo = wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute("visBtn");
	  IWDButton button =(IWDButton)view.createElement(IWDButton.class);
	  button.bindVisible(attributeInfo);

//Align this according to your context. I assume visBtn is under Root of the context
