Reload form

Hi On a form we have created a button which opens the vote dialog. When the user are finished voting the form isn't reloaded before closed and reopened. In example state isn't updated. Is there a way (command) to generate a complete form reload? Strangely pushing the "Refresh Item" button on the toolbar doesn't seem to reload the form. Kind Regards Henrik Olesen

    Hi Henrik, You can try the following code in the button's onClick event after the vote dialog completes. 
    // code calling the vote dialog
// vote dialog has executed and we want to refresh form

var parentItm = document.thisItem;
var parentID = document.itemID;
var parentAction = 'edit'; // or 'view'
top.aras.uiReShowItem(parentID,parentID,parentAction,'tab view');

    Hi Eli I tried adding the code. I also tried adding a new refresh button and added the code add an onClick event to this new button, but it doesn't reload the form unfortunately. I tried pushing the button when the form was locked. But it still leaves the form in the locked state. I suppose it should leave it in edit state according to Action = "Edit" isn't that correct? Kind Regards Henrik Olesen
