Hide Ribbon Button based on View selected

Sometimes we need to hide some button based on view selected.

CRM doesn’t have this functionality, and there is not supported way to achieve this. With small unsupported JavaScript code you can easily hide ribbon buttons based on view selected.

To do this, need to add Enable rule to button command.

I am using Ribbon workbench to add Enable Rule.

1.      If want to hide custom button then select button command, and click on Enable rules

If want to hide existing CRM button then need to customize button command, and then add Enable rule.

2.      Add new Enable rule to command

3.      Add Step to Enable rule and select Custom JavaScript Rule

4.      Set properties to javascript rule as

Default : True

FunctionName: HideButtonBasedOnViewSelected

InvertResult: False

Library: select JavaScript library where HideButtonBasedOnViewSelected function code is.

Parameters: Need one parameter to HideButtonBasedOnViewSelected function,

Add Crm parameter, and set parameter value as SelectedControl

5.      Now save and upload changes to CRM, and publish changes.

6.      JavaScript code required to hide button is
for CRM 2013

function HideButtonBasedOnViewSelected (selectedCtrl) {

      

        var view = selectedCtrl.get_$1X_3();

        var query = view.selectedViewName;

        if (query == 'Your View Name') {

            return false;

        }

        else

            return true;

    }

For CRM 2015

function HideButtonBasedOnViewSelected (selectedCtrl) {             

        var query = selectedCtrl.get_viewTitle();

        if (query == 'Your View Name') {

            return false;

        }

        else

            return true;

    }

To get selected view name need to use some unsupported JavaScript. 

"selectedCtrl.get_$1X_3();" or "selectedCtrl.get_viewTitle()"

This is giving all details about selected view and default view of this grid. 

Here I am hiding button for all views except view name is "Active Students - 2015"
For CRM 2013:

function HideButtonBasedOnViewSelected(selectedCtrl) {

        

        var view = selectedCtrl.get_$1X_3();

        var query = view.selectedViewName;

        if (query != 'Active Students - 2015') {

            return false;

        }

        else

            return true;

    }

For CRM 2015:

function HideButtonBasedOnViewSelected(selectedCtrl) {        

           var query = selectedCtrl.get_viewTitle();

        if (query != 'Active Students - 2015') {

            return false;

        }

        else

            return true;

    }

Enroll button is visible only for Active student -2015 view.
