    Events Show and Hide

    Hello dear colleagues from the VH forum,

    If You use heavily the Show and Hide Events tab and You have a lot of objects such as Text, inputs, comboboxes, etc in the form, it is quite difficult to identify the objects that You need to Hide or Show because it what it shows there is only Text1, Text2, Text3 and so on and also Combobox1, Combobox2...Combobox13.

    Most of the times I try to guess, but it's a lot of time consuming because I fail many times.

    Is there a trick to overpass this problem that I am having.

    It would be very interesting that it could show the name we gave to that, for the comboboxes or editboxes, or maybe both, I mean our variable name and the BV internal name.

    In case it would be text, maybe it could show a few starting letters of that text object to give us an idea of which object is that text object representing.

    Regards,

      Hi Karen,

      I know that I can name them.
      It's exactly that name that I would like to see here (so that it could help me): (instead of Text4, Text5, Combobox5, Combobox8, etc...)

        I would think that when you named them that would solve it.. when i recieve forms for those elements i have renamed they display correctly in the email .. so i would also ASSUME they would change here.. make sure you are changing both the name and the LABEL in the form properties elements

          Unfortunately the "find_object_by_id" javascript used to define the objects to show/hide, ONLY work with object IDs and not names.

            Hi naval,

            I agree but I am just saying that it could also display the variable name, because it would increase productivity by 10.000%.

            Maybe I'll post this request on the Wish List subforum, what do You think ?

            Thanks,

              Many objects don't have names, they only have IDs. Text in example, images, shapes, galleries etc.

              Furthermore, the BV inner code distinguishes the objects in the page by their ID as it would be easy to have more than one objects with the same name. Even with forms elements, that do have names, consider Radio Buttons that have the same name /Group)

              So only the ID is a valid alternative.
