Create a context menu to request a PDF rendition

ChristianDeVries

Hi,

With Webtop or DA 6.7 how can I create a content menu to request a rendition. For instance do right click on the document and have "Create PDF rendition" menu.

Ideally I would like this API to run in the backgroud to send the request to the dmi_queueitem table.

API> queue,c,<object_id of object to render>,dm_autorender_win31,rendition,0,F,,rendition_req_ps_pdf

There is an action in dm_sysobject_actions.xml called "createpdfrendition” how can have it included in the context menu.?

Thanks!

Here is how I did it:

1- - Open the file C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 7.0\webapps\da\webcomponent\config\actions\dm_sysobject_actions.xml

2- - Add the action createpdfrendition to the context menu

- <menuconfig id="context-menu">

- <filter clientenv="appintg">

<actionmenuitem dynamic="multiselect" action="delete" nlsid="MSG_DELETE" showifdisabled="false" showifinvalid="false" />

<actionmenuitem dynamic="singleselect" action="view" nlsid="MSG_VIEW_FILE" showifdisabled="false" showifinvalid="false" />

<actionmenuitem dynamic="multiselect" action="editfile" nlsid="MSG_EDIT" showifdisabled="false" showifinvalid="false" />

</filter>

- <filter clientenv="not appintg">

<actionmenuitem dynamic="multiselect" action="createpdfrendition" nlsid="MSG_TRANSFORM_TO_PDF" showifdisabled="false" />

<actionmenuitem dynamic="multiselect" action="editfile" nlsid="MSG_EDIT" showifdisabled="false" showifinvalid="false" />

<actionmenuitem dynamic="singleselect" action="view" nlsid="MSG_VIEW_FILE" showifdisabled="false" showifinvalid="false" />

3- - Clear the Tomcat cache and work directory.

4- - Restart Tomcat.
