Auto Show History

Geoff_Ross

This solution is already up here but buried in a thread somewhere so I thought I'd drag it out for all to see.

It removes the need to click the Show History button once the History tab is selected and just auto loads the history data instead.

Enjoy.

On addition I would suggest here is having a check for the current page to see if you actually want the script dynamically loaded on that page. For instance in this example you would only want this script to load on work item pages, that way you aren't dynamically loading ALL your scripts on each page that doesn't actually utilize that code.

One of the biggest performance complaints we get for the portal is the time it takes history to load. Especially on the older incidents. Is there a way to add that once the work item is loaded the history loads even before the user clicks the history tab?

Just remove the need to click on history tab first and the xhr request to show history will fire instantly!

Comment out (or remove) these lines in AutoShowHistory.js

app.custom.formTasks.add('Incident', null, function (formObj, viewModel) {<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; //bind a function to the form ready event<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; formObj.boundReady(function () {<br>    &nbsp;&nbsp;//$('a[data-cid=History]').on("click", function () { <== remove this<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;      &nbsp;pageForm.viewModel.view.loadHistory();<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;      $('#historyView').prev('div').hide()<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;    //}); <== remove this<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; });<br>});

Is there a possibility to add this feature for closed activities?
