Display questions

Hello! I have a question about the breadcrumbs path in FileExplorer. We are using the FileExplorer to browse for objects in our CRM and because objects are identified by a numeric ID and not a Unique Name, we must use the IDs in the paths in FileExplorer. Is there anyway to alter the displayed breadcrumbs path in the FileExplorer window to show the actual object names instead of the Object IDs?

Also, how can I change which icons are displayed for the different object types?

Best regards,
Patrik Edberg

Hi Patrik,

In order to "mask" the original names of the items in the address bar you need to use custom content provider implementing mapping of the folders names. Please review the following KB article demonstrating such implementation:

Okay, thanks. I take a look at that.

Best regards,

Another question... is it possible to use custom object and folder icons in the browser window? We want the browser window to reflect the object types in our CMS as closely as possibly to our Silverlight version which uses custom object items in it's browser window.

Scratch the last question, I found a solution to that.
