Adding new forms to Activiti Explorer

prabhjot — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 10:22:15 GMT

I need some guide / documents on how we can add / make new forms ( Like Vacation request mentioned in Activiti User Guide ) to activiti explorer and then deploy on server and can see them on web browsers.

With the new activiti explorer (since 5.7) you can use form properties:
http://activiti.org/userguide/index.html#formProperties
using which the explorer renders a form.

You can also specify these using the activiti designer.

The forms of the pre 5.7 explorer are not supported any more, although the mechanisms used back then are still available in activiti engine.

Hi folks,

is there a way to override the standard layout.
I've got to use cases which i think occur quite often and i cant implement them with the properties.

1. I like to have an textarea input field for a variable of type string.
2. I would like to give read only information in a way which is not grayed out (it just is not readable).

Is there a way to add more styling options without the need to move away from the activiti explorer?

Best regards,
Jan

Hi,

The text area is already implemented as an example for the Activiti in Action book.
To have read only text you could also use the documentation element of a task.

Best regards,
