Hi,

I am looking for an understanding of how to make a dialog dynamic in the sense that if say when the author is on a component's dialog, if they selected a checkbox then a drop down list of items would be dynamically generated in the dialog.

Hi Ratna,

In the examples, it looks to me like Touch-UI and Classic-UI seem to be very different. Touch-UI does not use ExtJS and replaces xtypes with Sling:resourceType. This seems like a better choice. But I am uncertain how I would apply touch-ui code to classic-ui as the classic-ui uses xytpes.

Maybe it would be better for me to try get the team to switch over to touch ui. The problem though is we have only got experience working with Classic-ui and XTypes. However it looks to me like developing dialogs in classic-ui is far more complex than in touch-ui. In classic-ui I would have to work in ExtJS, which is a whole new rabbit hole to fall down. And your dialog is completely done by creating a custom Xtype component.

In touch-ui I can use a combination of jsp and JQuery.

If I am on the wrong path here I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could advise me.

Regards

Clive Stewart
