Hi
in custom javascript code using guidebridge I consume a ‘elementHelpShown’ event as described in https://helpx.adobe.com/aem-forms/6/javascript-api/GuideBridge.html#event:elementHelpShown.
Here is the skeleton of my custom javascript code:
window.addEventListener("bridgeInitializeStart", function (event) { var gb = event.detail.guideBridge; gb.connect(function () { gb.on('elementHelpShown', function(target, _property, newText) { ... }); }); });
Following guidebridge documentation the event handler receives 3 parameters:
target: | Object | component whose help is being shown |
_property: | String | what kind of help is being shown. can be either Short Description / Long Description |
newText: | Object | object of the form{help: help content of the field}
|
What I finally get is:
target : p.Event {type: "elementHelpShown", timeStamp: 1449596265869, jQuery18005850592961069196: true, isTrigger: true, exclusive: undefined…} _property: child {options: Object, jsonModel: Object} newText : undefined
The parameter 'target' does not refer to a component but to an event. The parameter '_property' does not refer to a string but to an object. The parameter 'newText' is undefined.
The help text I've finally found in '_property.newText.help' is truncated:
This is the long description of the field:

and this is the long description in html view:

and this is what I got in '_property.newText.help'
_property.newText.help: "blablabla"
Has anybody ever successfully implemented a working event handler for this event: https://helpx.adobe.com/aem-forms/6/javascript-api/GuideBridge.html#event:elementHelpShown ?
