ribbon workbench question (display rule) RRS feed

    Hello, I've been using Ribbon Workbench to make ribbon updates.  I can easily create an Enable Rule by mapping to a JavaScript function that returns true or false based on certain conditions.

    However, I tried to create a Display Rule today and I didn't see an option to map to a JavaScript function.  Is this simply how CRM works?  In other words, does CRM not provide the ability to map a Display Rule to a JavaScript function, thereby forcing you to choose a different approach?  Or is this a gap in RWB or am I simply overlooking the implementation?

    Why would there be a js option for Enable Rules but not Display Rules?

    Hi,

    Yes, MSDN documentation also confirms that javascript option is not available for <DisplayRule>.

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg334209.aspx

    While <CustomRule> is available for <EnableRule> to work with javascript function.

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg328073.aspx

    But Here is a workaround to achieve it.
