Hello MNikitina !

I started to try to solve this problem with a member of the support team, Nikita, and for now I don't have a solution.

There the requested informations :
_ All my person fields are on the "Default" Template.
_ I have done several tests, with a Ctrl+F5 between each, just to be sure :

With this simple JS code :

Code: Select all

fd.field('Demandeur').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Demandeur').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('Utilisateurs').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Utilisateurs').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('Delegations').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Delegations').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('Responsable_x0020_direct').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_direct').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('Responsable_x0020_boite').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_boite').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('Utilisateurs1').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Utilisateurs1').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('Directeur_x0020_actuel_x0020_de_').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Directeur_x0020_actuel_x0020_de_').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('AssignedTo').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('AssignedTo').readonly(true);
});

fd.onsubmit(function(){
  fd.field('Demandeur').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Utilisateurs').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Delegations').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_direct').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_boite').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Utilisateurs1').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Directeur_x0020_actuel_x0020_de_').readonly(false);
  fd.field('AssignedTo').readonly(false);
  return true;
});

>> Open an existing item:

Not OK : Demandeur and Utilisateurs are readonly but all the others are invisible.
>> Open a new item:

Not OK : Demandeur is readonly but all the others are invisible.

With only the Demandeur field in readonly :

Code: Select all

fd.field('Demandeur').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Demandeur').readonly(true);
}); /*
fd.field('Utilisateurs').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Utilisateurs').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('Delegations').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Delegations').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('Responsable_x0020_direct').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_direct').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('Responsable_x0020_boite').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_boite').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('Utilisateurs1').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Utilisateurs1').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('Directeur_x0020_actuel_x0020_de_').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('Directeur_x0020_actuel_x0020_de_').readonly(true);
});
fd.field('AssignedTo').control('ready',function() { 
  fd.field('AssignedTo').readonly(true);
});*/

fd.onsubmit(function(){
  fd.field('Demandeur').readonly(false);/*
  fd.field('Utilisateurs').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Delegations').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_direct').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_boite').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Utilisateurs1').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Directeur_x0020_actuel_x0020_de_').readonly(false);
  fd.field('AssignedTo').readonly(false);*/
  return true;
});

Same thing with the Utilisateurs field
>> Open an existing item:

>> Open an existing item:

So it seems that the problem is just after the readonly. All the person fields after a field with a readonly are impacted.
Looks like a bug...

Thank you four your help ! This is really urgent...

Hello everybody !

Good news !
By talking to Nikita, it gave me the idea to test my previous code (with readonly(true)) just by adding the settimeout: It works very well!

So the code now is :

Code: Select all

setTimeout(function(){ 
	fd.field('Demandeur').control('ready',function() { 
	  fd.field('Demandeur').readonly(true);
	});
	fd.field('Utilisateurs').control('ready',function() { 
	  fd.field('Utilisateurs').readonly(true);
	});
	fd.field('Delegations').control('ready',function() { 
	  fd.field('Delegations').readonly(true);
	});
	fd.field('Responsable_x0020_direct').control('ready',function() { 
	  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_direct').readonly(true);
	});
	fd.field('Responsable_x0020_boite').control('ready',function() { 
	  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_boite').readonly(true);
	});
	fd.field('Utilisateurs1').control('ready',function() { 
	  fd.field('Utilisateurs1').readonly(true);
	});
	fd.field('Directeur_x0020_actuel_x0020_de_').control('ready',function() { 
	  fd.field('Directeur_x0020_actuel_x0020_de_').readonly(true);
	});
	fd.field('AssignedTo').control('ready',function() { 
	  fd.field('AssignedTo').readonly(true);
	});
}, 1000);

fd.onsubmit(function(){
  fd.field('Demandeur').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Utilisateurs').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Delegations').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_direct').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Responsable_x0020_boite').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Utilisateurs1').readonly(false);
  fd.field('Directeur_x0020_actuel_x0020_de_').readonly(false);
  fd.field('AssignedTo').readonly(false);
  return true;
});

I have a question :
I kept the ready function, just to be sure the field is ready. (In my tests, it works fine without too.)
Does that slow down the execution a lot?

I ask that for the few users who are in places where the internet connection is very very bad.

Thank you in advance for your response and have a nice day !

Hello Leslie,

I'm sorry for the delay in reply.

As Nikita mentioned in the email, this shouldn't slow down the form load or scripting execution. The users with a very slow internet connection should experience approximately the same results with and without the ready event, but it should be just a little safer to keep ready included.
