Is this possible with existing extension mechanisms in Modeler?</SPAN><BR /><SPAN> </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>[img]</SPAN><A href="http://s11.postimg.org/b5vsgk437/Screen_Shot_2014_01_30_at_5_53_29_PM.png" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://s11.postimg.org/b5vsgk437/Screen_Shot_2014_01_30_at_5_53_29_PM.png</A><SPAN>[/img]</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 30 Jan 2014 07:04:02 GMT ddweerasiri 2014-01-30T07:04:02Z Extending input types of Service Task attributes in Modeler https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/extending-input-types-of-service-task-attributes-in-modeler/m-p/168461#M121922 Hi,I am referring to the Activiti Modeler powered by KIS BPM.

The type of the class-property will no longer be "string", but will be a complex type. You'll have to add some code the the oryx-javascript, to render a custom editor for that specific type of property, in your case, showing a popup-box that does all the calls to the service. This requires javascript-coding and some digging into the oryx-internals.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 30 Jan 2014 10:17:33 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/extending-input-types-of-service-task-attributes-in-modeler/m-p/168462#M121923 frederikherema1 2014-01-30T10:17:33Z Re: Extending input types of Service Task attributes in Modeler https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/extending-input-types-of-service-task-attributes-in-modeler/m-p/168463#M121924 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Thanks aot.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>I was able to get this done.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 03 Feb 2014 13:36:55 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/extending-input-types-of-service-task-attributes-in-modeler/m-p/168463#M121924 ddweerasiri 2014-02-03T13:36:55Z
