Re: Activating tab on form from code?

Hi,


I think this would probably most easily done through JavaScript. Basically emulate a click on the desired tab when the user opens the form, or moves to the next record. Unfortunately I have no example, as I am not deep into Odoo JS myself.


Kind regards, Ronald

Hello,


I would need to make certain tab active based on field contents of the record in basically 2 scenarios:

1) As a result of the action

2) When opening the record in form view


The idea is to lead the user to a tab where they need to fill in some stuff.


2) would override default system behavior that tries to keep last open tab open when switching to next record - i.e. I open one record from tree view and the press Next. It should also work when I open the first one.

1) would seem to be easier but I do not have any idea how to tacke this. Manipulating view architecture does not seem to work because there is no information on the record being displayed


Am I missing something? Any pointers on how to do this?


Thank you very much. Best regards
