HCL Domino Ideas Portal
Welcome to the #dominoforever Product Ideas Forum! The place where you can submit product ideas and enhancement request. We encourage you to participate by voting on, commenting on, and creating new ideas. All new ideas will be evaluated by HCL Product Management & Engineering teams, and the next steps will be communicated. While not all submitted ideas will be executed upon, community feedback will play a key role in influencing which ideas are and when they will be implemented.
This is a very good idea and I also voted for it.
Some of this functionality can already be implemented today using existing Notes capabilities such as InViewEdit.
For example, checkboxes can be simulated using two icons (checked / unchecked). Depending on the field value, the corresponding icon is displayed in the view column. In the InViewEdit event, clicking the icon can be intercepted and the underlying field value can be toggled.
The same approach can also be used for “buttons” by displaying button-like images as column icons and reacting to clicks through InViewEdit logic.
Dialog lists are also possible using the LotusScript
Promptdialog functions.So while native support for modern editable controls in views would still be very valuable, there are already several creative ways to achieve similar behavior with the current Notes client.
