Is there a way to assign existing "feature" to epic? - scrum

We are using Visual Studio online as our backlog/sprint planning system. Now VSO development team has introduced possibility to define epics, which is great.
But the problem is that I already have full backlog with features and backlog items. I can not find a way how to assign those features to newly created epics... (the same if I have created backlog item first and after that - if I create a feature, I can't find a way how to attach that aforementioned backlog item to the newly created feature)
I am stuck and can't find a way how to accomplish this. Is it at all possible? Can anyone shed some light?

Yes, follow the steps below to accomplish this:
From Epics:
Open the Epics item.
Click "Link to..." button under "Features" tab.
Select "Child" link type and enter the ID of the feature you'd like to assign to this Epic.
From Features
Set "Mapping" to "On" and you will see the Epics listed in the right
panel.
Drag and drop the feature to the Epic you'd like to assign.
Or you can also:
Open the feature item.
Click "Link to..." button under "All Links" tab.
Set "Link Type" to "Parent" and enter the ID of the Epic you'd like to assign.
The steps above can be also used when you want to assign backlog item to feature.

An easier way is to use the "Mapping" pane on the "Backlogs" tab:
Go to the "Feature" level
Activate the "Mapping" pane
Now simply drag & drop your features onto the epic you want:

The Epic work item form should have a FEATURES tab where you can associate existing or add new features (that are automatically associated to the Epic)

How to check EP page caller on AX client

I have added Financial dimension tab on enterprise portal lead's detail page. The web-part is controlled by AX class DimensionDefaultingEPController.
I need to make only one attribute of the dimension visible. How do I achieve this ?
As per my approach, I have find the web menu item of corresponding web-menu and tried to search that if its possible to check the web menu item as a caller. But didn't find a way to achieve this too. Please help.....
Regards,

Checking the caller is not a good idea anyway.
Better is to check the element.args parameters.
You could sniff the parmEnum property value provided by the menu item.
Supply different menu items for each different context.

Add filter to Add existing button crm 2011

I followed the instructions in this link
but I face a strange problem which is when the lookup is populated with the new filtered view the add button is getting disabled when I select a record from the new view !!
I debugged the code in the lookupinfo.aspx page and I found this line of code that controls whether the add button is enabled or disabled
btnAdd.disabled = (crmGrid.InnerGrid.SelectedRecords.length == 0);
and this line of code always return true despite there is a selected record !!
Can anyone help me ?
Thank you.
I followed the instructions in this link
Which link? I can't see one referenced in your question. I'll make some assumptions about what you are trying to do. I will assume that you are trying to hide an "Add Existing" button linked to a form's sub-grid. I'll also assuem you're trying to edit XML files by hand (which is the hard way!).
The easiest way to apply rules to buttons in CRM 2011 is to use Erik Pool's brilliant tool "Visual Ribbon Editor" (available here)).
To hide an "Add Existing" button based on selected records, you would:
Connect the tool to your CRM environment
Open the "parent" entity (i.e. the record type that shows the "Add Existing xxxx" button
Select the Ribbon Type to be "Sub-Grid"
Select the button you wish to manipulate
Add or edit the Enable Rules for that button
If I'm not describing a solution to your problem, maybe enhance your question - it's hard to understand what you are trying to acheive.

Accept edited wigets with QDataWidgetMapper

I'm making a small application that represents a to-do list.
The list is stored in a cusom model (derived from QAbstractItemModel) and is displayed in a QTableView.
I have also a custom widget (TaskDialog) that is used to browse and edit tasks from the list. The children of the TaskDialog are mapped to the model with a QDataWidgetMMapper.
On the task dialog I have also buttons that allow browsing through all the tasks in my to-do list (QDataWidgetMapper::toPrevious() ...).
The problem is that if I'm editing a task in the TaskDialog (e.g. the tasks name) and then browse to another task, the new edited enty isn't set in the model.
But if I edit something in the TaskDialog, then first change the focus to an other child widget of the TaskDialog and then press one of the browsing button, than the changes are written to the model.
How can I achive that widgets that are in a editing mode are accepted and written to the model.
I also tried the example of QDataWidgetMapper from Nokia. There it works perfectly. But they use a QStandardItemModel.
Best regards
Luke
I found a solution:
The submit policy of the QDataWidgetMapper has to be set to QDataWidgetMapper::ManualSubmit.
Then allways when I browse to a new item (i.e. one of the browse buttons is pressed) i submit the changes with QDataWidgetMapper::submit().

Flex Spark tabbar : initialize hidden tabs

problem is I have a spark Tabbar, with many forms in each tab.
But I have a single global save button. Problem is, if I don't open a Tab,
it doesn't get initialized and therefore the forms it contains do not exist..
How Can I make it as if the user had clicked on every tab?
The best way to handle this is to have a data model that each tab is displaying and editing, rather than trying to go in and read the values out of the controls in each tab, and save those. This is at the heart of MVC.
However, if you're too invested in your current architecture to be able to change it and you are using a ViewStack with your TabBar, you may find that setting creationPolicy to "all" does what you want. If you're using States, I don't think you can force all of them to be instantiated without putting your application into each State at least once.

How to implement sortable list of object in Flex

I have list of object that I want each item to be rendered with some renderer that include a delete and edit buttons with some text.
What is the best way to make the list of object re-order-able in drag/drop fashion so the user can drag on item on top of another to change the order of the list.
Basically, just use a List, or DataGrid, with an itemRenderer that displays the buttons. Look into the DragEnabled, DragMoveEnabled, and DropEnabled properties for the click and drag sorting.
Look into using itemEditors for the edit functionality.
At the risk of sounding self indulgent, our DataSorter component is designed for sorting lists. It is modeled after the Netflix movie queue / YouTube Playlist editor, but can be easily modified or extended as needed. Free developer editions are available from the web site and you can check out our API Explorer sample.
