Need Client Side Event To Fire Every Time UX Opened

[iRadiate]

I am using "Open a UX component to Edit Current Record in a List Control" action javascript to call a UX component for editing purposes.

When the called UX component opens, I have getValue/setValue javascript in this UX to get values of certain controls then use this info to show/hide properties other controls.
Placing my javascript in the onRenderComplete fires the first time I call the UX but not on subsequent calls unless the browser is refreshed first.

Is there a different client side javascript event I should use that will fire every time I open the UX using the above method?

Maybe just refresh the list each time you call the ux? Sounds like the ux once open stays open even if it is not in view.

be sure use cached UX component is not checked.

If you decide you don't like the performance of not using a cached UX component,
you could put some code in the on execute event to check if the values exist, and
then assign them if they don't.

Ah, thank you very much Gregg .. that did the trick.

This is a fairly small UX component so any performance impact doesn't seem noticeable.

Fantastic Stephen.
Glad I could help.

Where is this property? Is it in the UX properties? Don't see it.

If you want to use caching, the onSynchronizeDialog event executes everytime the UX is reopened. You can do whatever processing you need in this client-side event.

Bob, it's in the Action Javascript properties of the component that calls the UX.

Thanks Sarah, I'll turn the caching back on and try this method next week.
