Nintex Form "RegisterAfterReady" load event

Few more tips on Nintex forms. If you have an action that you want to occur before nintex load page, what are the options? If you have asked me yesterday, I would have easily say document ready event. But today I have few more option. 

Here are the options:

• NWF.FormFiller.Events.RegisterBeforeReady
• NWF.FormFiller.Events.RegisterAfterReady
• NWF$(document).ready

Well we all know 3rd option. Let me give some tips on 2nd option. We have a requirement that whenever we open any item, we need to show user what to do in the form. As the form was submitted at different level by approval process, we need to show different guide for different user. 

Document ready event was firing so quickly that we were not able to get all the information we need from form. So we used RegisterAfterReady event. so once the form is ready with our data filled in that, we can open a dialog showing our own page.

below is solution that we used:

Solution:

ShowInitialPop() {

    var widthValue = 600;    

    var options = {

        title: "",

        width: widthValue,

        height: 520,

        url: sr_siteUrl + "/SitePages/StartPopUp.aspx?IsDlg=1"

    };

    SP.UI.ModalDialog.showModalDialog(options);

    NWF$("#dialogTitleSpan").hide();

    NWF$("#dlgTitleBtns").hide();

}

NWF.FormFiller.Events.RegisterAfterReady(function () {

// your code

    ShowInitialPop();

    

});
