Re: Question regarding top menu
HI Hector,
Thanks for your contribution. I could do the same as your screenshot in
detail screen, but I'd like to put an "Add" button on "List All" screen
without showing any checkbox for bulk actions.
The closest thing I'm trying to do is the Incode App showing an Add Button
as on screenshot in [1].

Re: Question regarding top menu
Hi, Fabio,
Dan will be able to explain this with greater detail, but since I
recently implemented some contributed actions without really trying to,
I'd like to give you a couple pointers.
The actions appear in the UI as buttons next to your object title, as
shown here http://i.imgur.com/OWI4Wo3.png [3] (Create IT Services is an
action defined in a class called ITServices that is contributed to the
ANS class' UI).
The code for that actions is as follows. From what I understand, ISIS
detects that the action has an ANS parameter and then adds it to ANS's
actions.
public ITService createITService(
final @ParameterLayout(named="Name") String name,
final @ParameterLayout(named="Description", multiLine=4)
String description,
final @ParameterLayout(named="Status") String status,
final @ParameterLayout(named="ANS")
@Parameter(optionality=Optionality.OPTIONAL) ANS ans
) {
}
Hope this is helpful.

Re: Question regarding top menu
Hi Dan,
Thank you so much for your explanation. Now I can get it working but I'm
afraid it's not enough because I'll need 3 or 4 lines for each domain.
The best way for my project may be listing actions as buttons above title
of List All pages. Can I do this by using Contributed Actions?
I didn't understand how contributed actions work. How can I fire these
actions? By buttons?
Best regards,
Fabio

Re: Question about contributed actions and one about the UI
Thank you, Dan, I agree that contributions are a little hard to visualize. When reading the documentation I got the idea that it worked based on interfaces, so after creating my own example without noticing it I understand the idea better. I'll check the documentation on mixins, too. Thanks for the detailed explanation, I'll update to 1.12.2 and get back to you.
