live field how to lfwatch work with radio button

[Dennis Manacap]

Hi,

I am trying to implement lfwatch on a radio button to show or hide another field based on selected value... on live field main configuration I have below code

lfWatch("customfield_15800", {"customfield_15800"}, "OnChangeCustomField.sil", {"change"});

and OnChangeCustomfield.sil

switch(customfield_15800){
    case "Normal Change":
        lfShow("customfield_15900");
        lfShow("customfield_15901");
        lfHide("customfield_15904");   
    break;
    case "Emergency Change":
        lfHide("customfield_15900");
        lfHide("customfield_15901");
        lfShow("customfield_15904");   
    break;   
}

How to correctly implement lfWatch on a field my code is not working.

Thanks,

Dennis

Hello,

Your OnChangeCustomfield.sil should look like this:

switch(argv["customfield_15800"]){
    case "Normal Change":
        lfShow("customfield_15900");
        lfShow("customfield_15901");
        lfHide("customfield_15904");   
        break;
    case "Emergency Change":
        lfHide("customfield_15900");
        lfHide("customfield_15901");
        lfShow("customfield_15904");   
        break;   
}

If you want to get a value of a field on a screen, then you should use the argv list to do it. It would be like this:

argv["customfield_15800"]

If you type  customfield_15800, it takes a value saved in the Jira database, which is not what you want.

Great!! It worked!!

Thanks @Alexey Matveev 

I also added lfInstantHook for the loading part.

Hi @Dennis Manacap 

I believe scripts don’t work of fields as they used to. 

You can look at the addons,

• Dynamic forms - provides this functionality 
• Scriptrunner- I believe you can achieve this using the behavior feature in this addon.
• view marketplace.atlasssian.com as there may be other addons that offer you this functionality.

Hope this helps.
