XSLT for Custom Object XML?

Hi,
I would like to produce a relatively pretty document from the XML definition of a custom object. Ideally the e.g. Fields would look something like:
Field Label

fullName: Field_Label__c
encryptionScheme: None
externalId: false
length: 32
etc. etc.etc.

I recognize that that's an oversimplification, but hopefully you get the idea. Has anyone seen (or does anyone have) an XSL template that will produce something like that?

How to make a Flow embedded in a VF page recognize the language param?

Hi,
I have a public VF page (no login controller) with an embedded screen flow as follows:

<apex:page showHeader="false" sidebar="false" controller="ImportantWorkController" language="{!languageCode}" action="{!init}">
    <html>
    <head>
			...
    </head>
    <body>
    <div id="content">
        <div class="container">
            ...
            <div class="row">
                <div class="twelve columns" id="LightningContainer">
<apex:outputPanel rendered="{!isBroken == false}">
    <script type="text/javascript">
        var theId = "{!$CurrentPage.parameters.recordId}";
                    

        //Create Lightning Component
        $Lightning.use("c:ImportantWorkScreens", function() {
            $Lightning.createComponent("c:ImportantWork",
                { "recordId" : theId, "param2" : "{!param2}", "param3" :"{!param3}", "language" : "{!languageCode}" }, //Pass Parameters
                "LightningContainer", function(component) {
                    console.log('Component created');
                });
        });
    </script>
    </apex:outputPanel>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    </body>
    </html>
</apex:page>

The Application in the ImportantWorkScreens app is simply:

<aura:application description="ImportantWorkScreens" access="GLOBAL" extends="ltng:outApp" implements="ltng:allowGuestAccess">
    <aura:attribute name="recordId" type="String" />
    <aura:attribute name="param2" type="String" />
    <aura:attribute name="param3" type="String" />
    <aura:handler name="init" value="{!this}" action="{!c.doInit}" />
    <aura:dependency resource="c:ImportantWork" />
</aura:application>

And the inner ImportantWork.cmp is:

<aura:component implements="lightning:isUrlAddressable,force:hasRecordId" description="ImportantWork">
    <aura:attribute name="recordId" type="String" />
    <aura:attribute name="param2" type="String" />
    <aura:attribute name="param3" type="String" />
    <aura:handler name="init" value="{!this}" action="{!c.init}" />
    <lightning:flow aura:id="flowData" />
    {!v.pageReference.state.c__action}
</aura:component>

(I'm omitting the Controllers and Helpers but can add them if needed).
I would like the Flow to pick up the language parameter and display the correct text from Translation Workbench accordingly. Is this possible, and if so what do I need to do to make it happen?

(The language actually works properly if I build this in Experience Cloud, but if I do that then I have other questions about initializing the E. Cloud site off the recordId the way I can with the VF Controller.)

How does Lightning Email Composer populate the To: address?

We have a Lightning Case record console that includes the Email Quick Action, and the Quick Action does specify the default To and From addresses, with the To: being either the Contact Email or a custom field that's populated during Email-to-Case processing. I am finding that, in some cases, for follow-up emails the To: address is getting populated with another value, such as the default From: address. I turned on Lightning Debug and when I open the composer I see this:

address set to /email/htmlbody/htmlbody.jsp?id=6599%3A0&layout=CaseLightningEmail&useCkEditorPanels=false&isNarrow=false&customCssClasses=&isQuickTextEnabled=true&isPardotOrg=false&isCmsOnly=false&_CONFIRMATIONTOKEN=...

Does anyone know how that addressee gets chosen? Thanks for any help!

Can I delay the redirect from a visualforce controller?

Hi,
I am working on a new Visualforce page as part of our Lightning conversion. As part of that, I've written code to showMessages if we're still on Classic, and showToasts if we're on Lightning. If the operation succeeds, I would like to show a Success message and then redirect back to the record page, but the redirect happens instead of the rerender (for failure, I return null as the new pageReference so no redirect happens and the messages display properly). How can I force the VF page to wait for the showToast operation(s) to complete before reloading the record?

VF page:

<apex:page id="Xx_CancelQuote"
           standardController="xx__Quote__c"
           extensions="XxQuoteButtonController"
           title="Cancel Quote"
           lightningStylesheets="{!lightning}">
    <apex:slds />
    <apex:form >
        <apex:actionFunction name="cancelQ" action="{!cancelQuote}" id="cancelFunction" reRender="messageBox" />
        <apex:actionFunction name="return2Q" action="{!returnToRecord}" id="returnFunction" />
    </apex:form>
    <apex:outputPanel id="scriptPanel">
        <script>if (confirm("Cancel quote {!quoteNumber}?"))
                cancelQ();
            else
                return2Q();
        </script>
    </apex:outputPanel>
    <apex:outputPanel id="messageBox">
        <apex:pageMessages showDetail="true"/>
        <script>
            <apex:repeat value="{!toastMessages}" var="dirKey">
            sforce.one.showToast({
                "title":  "{!toastMessages[dirKey].title}",
                "message":  "{!toastMessages[dirKey].message}",
                "type":  "{!toastMessages[dirKey].typeName}",
                "mode":  "{!toastMessages[dirKey].mode}"
            });
            </apex:repeat>
        </script>
    </apex:outputPanel>
    <br/>
    <apex:form>
        <apex:commandButton id="returnBtn" value="Return to Quote" onClick="return2Q(); return false;" />

Datatable URL field opens new browser tab in Summer '19

I have a Lightning Datatable with a URL field whose target value has been a forward slash concatenated with a case object ID (so it resolved to https://mydomain.lightning.force.com/objectId). Prior to Summer '19, this produced the intended result: the link opened a new tab in the Lightning service console. As of this week, though, it's opening in a new browser tab instead (so effectively a target="_blank"). I have two questions:

Does anyone know if this change was documented anywhere?
Is there anything I can do with the typeAttributes that will produce the same result that calling workspaceAPI.openTab() does (regardless of focus)?

Current column definition (wrapped for ease of reading) in the Controller:

{label: "Case Number",
    fieldName: "Anchor",
    type: "url",
    typeAttributes: {
        label:{
            fieldName: "CaseNumber"
        }
    },
    sortable: true},

Thanks for any help!

Hardcoding fields in List Actions with StandardSetController

Hi,
I'm trying to create a List Action Visualforce page (Lightning environment) which will not only include two user-set fields, but also push in the user's ID and current timestamp into two additional fields which the user has no control over. Updating the selected records with the exposed fields (a dropdown and a textbox) works fine, but I have been unable to set the other two fields. I have tried two different tactics:

Using inputHidden for the two fields (see code below), but I haven't found the magic Javascript incantation to properly set them before the form submits. In ordinary HTML I would just set the value attribute, but that's bound to the object field and using html-value is not allowed.
Using controller.getRecord() in the controller extension, also as shown below, but that doesn't work, either; I can tell in the logs that updateRecords is called but the fields aren't updated.

Does anyone have a working solution for this? (Note: I haven't tried both methods at the same time, I just wanted to show them both in the example).

Page:

<apex:page standardController="MyObject__c"
        recordSetVar="adjustments"
        extensions="ExtensionsClass"
        showHeader="false"
        id="MyObject_BulkChange">
    <apex:slds />
    <apex:form id="muform">        
        <apex:pageBlock title="Refunds / Adjustments Mass-Update" mode="edit" id="mub1">
            <apex:pageMessages />
            <apex:pageBlockSection id="mus1">
                <apex:inputField value="{!MyObject__c.Status__c}" id="status">
                    <apex:actionSupport event="onchange" rerender="muselectedlist"/>
                </apex:inputField>
                <apex:inputField value="{!MyObject__c.Comment__c}" id="comment">
                    <apex:actionSupport event="onchange" rerender="muselectedlist"/>
                </apex:inputField>
                <apex:inputHidden value="{!MyObject__c.User_Name__c}" rendered="true" id="userName"/>
                <apex:inputHidden value="{!MyObject__c.Action_Date__c}" rendered="false" id="actionDate"/>
            </apex:pageBlockSection>
            <apex:pageBlockButtons location="bottom" id="mubut">

            </apex:pageBlockButtons>
        </apex:pageBlock>
        <apex:pageBlock title="Selected Items" id="muselectedlist">
            <apex:pageBlockTable value="{!selected}" var="ref" id="mutab">
                <apex:column value="{!ref.Account_Number__c}" id="refAcctNbr"/>

                <apex:column value="{!ref.User_Name__c}" id="refUserName"/>
                <apex:column value="{!ref.Action_Date__c}" id="refActionDate"/>
            </apex:pageBlockTable>
        </apex:pageBlock>
    </apex:form>
</apex:page>

Controller:

public with sharing class ExtensionsClass {
    ApexPages.StandardSetController setCon;

    public selectedSizeWorkaround(ApexPages.StandardSetController controller) {
        setCon = controller;
    }

    public integer getMySelectedSize() {
        return setCon.getSelected().size();
    }
    public integer getMyRecordsSize() {
        return setCon.getRecords().size();
    }

    public PageReference updateRecords() {
        ((MyObject__c)(setCon.getRecord())).User_Name__c = UserInfo.getUserId();
        ((MyObject__c)(setCon.getRecord())).Action_Date__c = System.now();
        return setCon.save();
    }
}

Visual flow in visualforce - Language issues

Hi,
I am running a visual flow embedded in a visualforce page through flow:interview, since I need to show it on a Force.com Site.
I'm using custom labels in the flow, in order to be able to use it for multiple languages.
My goal is to pass the language to the visualforce page with a URL parameter (and it works), so I can usa a single flow by changing only the URL, and I don't have to make a different flow for every language.

The problem is that the visual flow ALWAYS use the system language, and ignore the language I'm passing to the visualforce page.
The VF page takes the language correctly with the language={!$CurrentPage.parameters...} component.

I've tried everything but I can't make it work. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Using force:navigateToComponent Not Saving in Dev Console

I am attempting to use force:navigateToComponent but running into an odd issue. The internet sites that I'm using as reference seams to point me that I'm following the right path but I'm unclear on the error. Its preventing me from saving the page:

   <aura:component>
<lightning:button variant="brand" label="Button Text" onclick="{!c.Navigate}" />
   </aura:component>

Controller JS:

Navigate : function(component, event, helper) {
var evt = $A.get("e.force:navigateToComponent");
evt.setParams({
componentDef : "c:component2",
});
   evt.fire();
}

Error Reported on Save: Failed to save undefined: markup://aura:component cannot be instantiated directly. Component will not save in developer console.
