XrmToolBox: AutoNumberUpdater - new StateCode filter

Struggling with SharePoint Field Controls (BooleanField)

In my code-behind I tried to set the CssClass property of a
Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls.BooleanField field during Page_OnLoad.
During a debug session I could find out, that this control's CssClass property is "ms-input" by default.

I overwrote it by different class name.

This field gets rendered on the page like this:

<TD class="ms-formbody No-Borders" vAlign=top align=middle><SPAN dir=none><INPUT id=ctl00_m_g_6796b238_94c6_47ff_bf38_ca66daa7a0d5_ctl00_AlertFormContent1_ConfirmationField_ctl00_BooleanField title="Quality Confirmation" type=checkbox name=ctl00$m$g_6796b238_94c6_47ff_bf38_ca66daa7a0d5$ctl00$AlertFormContent1$ConfirmationField$ctl00$BooleanField><BR></SPAN></TD>

As you can see SharePoint actually does not render any CSS class style on this input field type.
I am wondering why the CssClass is available and set by a default value although it does not get rendered.
I would like to know why this control behaves like this. Is this intentionally or a bug?
Maybe one of you out there has an answer to this.

  1. Hi Andreas,

    Did you ever find a solution to this? I'm having the same issue, with both BooleanFields and DropDownChoiceFields. TextFields do render CssClass properly, though.

Yet Another Address Autocomplete PCF Control–powered by Bing

In this blog post I will not go into detail in how to install all the pre-requisites that are required to build and run PCF controls. My goal was to build a new PCF control and get into coding of PCF controls as fast as possible. Here are a few links to articles that will help you installing the pre-requisites (Microsoft PowerApps CLI)  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/get-powerapps-cli Other good references to get into this topic: https://toddbaginski.com/blog/how-to-create-a-powerapps-pcf-control/ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/create-custom-controls-using-pcf I looked through the Guido Preite’s https://pcf.gallery/ which will help you find appropriate use cases / examples for your own needs. It did not take very long to find a simple example to start with: Andrew Butenko's https://pcf.gallery/address-autocomplete/ A few moments later I had the idea to create yet another address autocomplete...

Power Automate: Avoid Apply to Each for List rows action (DataVerse)

If you do not want to use the Apply to Each loop after a Dataverse List rows action you can use the following in a Dynamic Content / Expression box to directly use a field's value in e.g. Compose action: first(outputs('List_rows')?['body/value'])?['apx_fullpath'] instead of apx_fullpath you can use whatever field name you need for the entity that's been queried before.
