Sc_block_display not working in advanced search v8.1

Applications Search
#1

Hello. The following SC macro does not seem to work when I substitute my search block names. Here is the basic macro:

sc_block_display(Block_Name, on/off)
Dynamically determines the display fields of a specific block.

By default all the blocks are displayed (“on” condition).

Ex. 1:
if ({type_customeri} == “personal”)
{
sc_block_display(company, off);
}
else
{
sc_block_display(personal, off);
}

Here is my code which I’ve tried at both grid scriptinit and advanced search scriptinit. Emotions and Part 2 are the names of the blocks in my advanced search. I’ve also tried with just the Emotions block. The macro has no effect.

[glo_simple] = 1;

if ([glo_simple] == 1)
{
sc_block_display(Emotions, off);
sc_block_display(Part 2, off);
}

Has anyone had success with this macro?

Thank you!

#2

try off in quotes “off” and check where you fire this code

#3

Blocks have both a name and a label and they can be different.
Are you sure you’re using the names of the blocks in the macro?

#4

Thank you. Yes, using the names.

#5

Thank you. I tried with the quotes and at events scripinit in both grid and search and also applicationinit in grid.

#6

what also is possible is that he does’nt reset the blocks try

if ({type_customeri} == “personal”)
{
sc_block_display(company, “off”);
sc_block_display(personal, “on”);
}
else
{
sc_block_display(personal, “off”);
sc_block_display(company, “on”);
}

Thank you. Also doesn’t work. Baffling.

This is my code following example:

[glo_simple] = 1;

if ([glo_simple] == 1)
{
sc_block_display(Emotions, “off”);

}
else
{
sc_block_display(Emotions, “on”);
}

#8

if you lose the IF code does the block appear or disappear?

#9

Good idea, but still displays. Here is the code that I’ve tried placing at the grid events scriptinit, applicationinit, and advanced search at scriptinit.

sc_block_display(Emotions, “off”);

I tried changing the Emotion block setting to Start Closed, and that worked.

Here are the blocks:
