First, I would like to encourage unsupported and supported answers to this question. I can handle the filtering of acceptable risk and rework after suggestions have been posted :).
Hi all,
I have a request to let users categorize activities in a simple and quick manner (targeting on-prem 2013). Categories are like tags, but have some hierarchy built in (categories have sub categories and so on, 3-4 levels). We would like to implement this simply as a custom control in a web resource on the different activity forms where you would start typing and it would offer suggestions and then let users drill down if needed following that suggestion. Of course a simple search box or something similar does not require a lot of space around it, or at least not until you have some results, and here lies my problem: The standard CRM Iframes typically handle overflow... well, they don't handle it well.
- Is there a way to let content in an iframe overflow into the CRM form in general (by some z-index manipulation or otherwise)?
- Would you (very unsupported) rather inject this into the CRM DOM to achieve a more fluent custom control (HTML+JS)?
- Do you suggest other alternatives for web resources with lots of content without filling the screen or ending up in scrolling hell?
- Have anyone seen a ready-to-go categorization solution for CRM that we could look at buying?
Thanks.
