Hi,
I am working on a Blazor XAF application and would like to modify the behavior of hyperlinks in Detail View so that they open in a new tab instead of a popup, similar to how they function in the List View.
Is there a simple way to configure this behavior so that hyperlinks in the Detail View also open in a new tab?
I would appreciate your guidance on implementing this change.
Thank you in advance for your support.
Best regards,
Marcin
Hello Marcin,
Thank you for your patience.
Our ObjectPropertyEditor doesn't have an API that allows you to change its behavior to open the referenced object's Detail View in a new MDI tab.
As an alternative solution, you can utilize its built-in capability to open the referenced object's Detail View in a new browser tab, as described in the Hide Hyperlinks in Lookup Controls section of the same help topic:
To open the referenced object in a new browser tab, use Ctrl + mouse click or click the middle mouse button.
If this solution doesn't meet your requirements, you can implement a custom version of our ObjectPropertyEditor that includes this capability.
To accomplish this task, follow the instructions from this help topic to explore how our ObjectPropertyEditor class works on the inside: Debug DevExpress .NET Source Code with PDB Symbols. In your custom implementation, utilize the ShowViewStrategyBase.ShowViewFromCommonView method to open the object's Detail View in a new MDI tab.
I shared your usage scenario with our team and we will consider adding this capability to our built-in ObjectPropertyEditor in the future.
Best regards,
Herman
