Sorry yes I did not add a filter to the view, I did now, just filtered by ID >is greater than 0

I can now see the “Filtered View” as an option. Although when I select it the CAML generated is “undefined” – and an error now pops up when chart loads.

Hope this is progress! (copy pasted errors

Strange I have no filters I can choose in the optional filter (under filter tab) – see image attached. I created a view in the lookup list to see if that had any effect and it didnt.

Yes both the lists are on the same site.

Is the lookup single choice or multichoice? – no multiple values selected

Which field is shown in the lookup column (the Title field or another field from the lookup list)? – Title field

Are you using A CAML filter in the Filters tab? – no

(see attached screen shots)

PS Other info

• I reset the chart, before rebuilding from scratch.
  I’m using a basic table with two fields (Title – String) and (Lookup – String)
  The lookup column is to a list in same site, with 7 different choices.

I CAN get the lookup field to show in my table I switch the Data Type from String to Boolean (Yes/No) – it just shows as a tick for every record!

Thanks Alex,

I upgraded to version 7.0.0.9 but still have the same issue. Just seems to get stuck on the loading screen when I add a lookup.

Sorry just realised my mistake – I should have used the very useful “Fields” tab to get my internal field names.

Instead I was using the encoded internal field names taken from URL – once I decoded them it works!

So
%5Fx0031%5F%5Fx002e%5F3%5Fx0020%5FCountry%5Fx0

decoded is;
_x0031__x002e_3_x0020_Country_x0

If anyone ever needs to do this I always find this useful:

Thanks for looking Alex – still no idea why it’s not showing in display form.

However I finally got the html/js call to bring them in with your code posted elsewhere here so I am good now thanks.

If anyone else is looking to show 3 calculated columns in Editform. (or has issue showing in Display form see below – my internal fieldname and column names are the same btw)

var qRes = spjs.utility.getItemByID(
	{
		"listName":_spPageContextInfo.pageListId,
		"id":spjs.dffs.data.thisItemID,
		"viewFields":["calccoldate1","calcoldate2","calccoldate3"]
	}
);

$("span.calccoldate1").html(qRes["calccoldate1"].split(";#")[1]);
$("span.calcoldate2").html(qRes["calcoldate2"].split(";#")[1]);
$("span.calccoldate3").html(qRes["calccoldate3"].split(";#")[1]);  

Then in the HTML field added to tab (repeated for each column):

<table style="width: 100%" class="customised1">
	<tr>
		<td class="customisedcss2" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Segoe UI Semilight&quot;,sans-serif;
mso-fareast-font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;;color:#262626;mso-ansi-language:EN-GB;
mso-fareast-language:EN-GB; width: 87%;">text for the column label
   </td>
<td class="customisedcss3"><span class="calcoldatecss2" /></td>

Thanks Alex. There are three dates, I just want to show these dates in a display form in a “friendly” format of dd.MMM.yyyy so want to show a calculated column instead of the original field.

PIC 1 – Shows the configuration in form:
1) Original Field
2) Calculated Column (that never shows up)
3) Is HTML in a field column I am trying to use to force it to show up!

PIC 2 – Shows some columns – really just to confirm that the calculated column itself works great.

PIC 3 – Shows the Display Form – notice no calculated column is shown.

I create a HTML field workaround which shows up for one of the dates – “1.15 Start date of the OSQMV:” but not for the others?

PIC 4 – JS of HTML field workaround – first field is ok – but if I just copy line [39] to line [40] and update the reference it doesnt work – keep getting error 80020101 wondering how to add this in, as this might be easier than trying to solve why my calculated column is not showing.

Doh – wrong file sorry – just thought I would wrap this up – now working beautifully again and so is the new BETA version, thanks Alex!

Dynamic Forms for SharePoint [frontend] v4.4.3.31

[Paul Lynch]

Sorry not done this before, I take a local copy of the DFFS/js/SPJS-vLookup_frontend.js file from my production DFFS.

I drag and drop it into the window of Dans JS tool. (which unpacks it?)

I use the tool to format the JS so it’s beautiful!

Then I scroll down to line 417 and cannot see anything above or below the next 100 line (or more) unless I am blind!

[Paul Lynch]

I appreciate the fix Alex – sorry but please can you tell me which line that code is on?

There are 6057 lines of code

If I copy to notepad ++ cant seem to search and find these exact lines or combination of terms if I split it out.

[Paul Lynch]

In fact yes you’re right – any field that does not have a number to start with (or part of internalfieldname) is shown!

This explains why the “Title” shows – but the field name (non internal) is 1.0 xxxx

[Paul Lynch]

I noticed it is the same on many tabs.

However I think many of these fields do start with a number like 1.0 xxx 1.2 xxx etc..

Here are some examples (with encoded internal field names)

1.10 # Screened-failed:
_x0031__x002e_10_x0020__x0023__x
SPFieldText

1.12 # Early Terminated:
_x0031__x002e_12_x0020__x0023__x
SPFieldText

1.15 Start date of the OSQMV:
_x0031__x002e_17_x0020_End_x0020
SPFieldDateTime

1.16 End date of the OSQMV:
_x0031__x002e_16_x0020_Start_x00
SPFieldDateTime

I use the new cookie function to store which tab it is saved on so if you go back into a form, whichever tab is on does not have these fields.

[Paul Lynch]

Not sure if it might be related the the Expand and Collapse functionality.

1)No heading at all on tab 1 – get main issue above.

2) If I add a heading – and choose “initially collapsed” – show just the option to expand and nothing else. But expanding and collapsing then shows all the fields!

2a)..Interestingly if I keep 2) but choose “First form section in each tab expanded” in the Expand and Collapse section – get main issue above again (rather than just see it expanded!)

3) If I add a heading – and choose “initially expanded’ with no settings in Expand and Collapse section – get main issue above.

Strange how it always seems to show the Title and the multiple lines of text fields. Apart from 2a.
