Hi,
I have a second issue.
Our plug-in shows a view for hosts using the html -Bridge. When our view is active, and the user
calls the context menu in the Navigation on the left - and tries to perform an Action (for example: Disconnect Host) -
the Container (IFrame) in which our view is shown, is made to have a bright white background, and the action does not
work - no Dialog is started or anything.
Is there anything I can do to prevent this?
thanks for some more hints
Cathy
Hi Laurent,
I made an Acme Plugin - it does not do anything except show a label and some text. Then I added this to my plugin.xml for a host.
The first picture just shows the plugin at the start. Then I call the contextmenu - and select "disconnect" - the third shows
what the view looks like, and it is and the normal "disconnect" are you sure... box does not come up..
But I noticed that I am using the 6.0ga sdk - so maybe I should try it with update 1?
But for our production we use the 5.5 sdk, because it must function on 5.5 as well.
I also tried some other host Actions, like Alarms->New Alarm Definition - but that works correctly. I don't know what the diffence could be.
hi Cathy,
Can you provide more details and screen-shots to understand better your use case?

Thanks for the screen-shots. This problem is a bug reported several months ago and fixed in 6.0.1. See this section of the 6.0.1 Release Notes:
Any action that brings up a small popup dialog would have the same problem when the HTML view is active.
Unfortunately there is no good work-around. In your case hitting enter would dismiss the hidden "Disconnect" confirmation dialog, using the default No option.
I think it works for "New Alarm Definition" because this popup is larger.
Hi Laurent,
thanks for the Info - we will document that.
