Can I use getDestinationStepName() in Behaviour Plugin when the transition is global?

Hi, 

I've defined a Global transition named "X" associated to the window "WindowX". This window has 3 customfields "CF1", "CF2" and "CF3".

This global transition is defined as follows:

Name: X

Description:

Destination step: The source step 

View: WindowX

 

I need to configure which customfield must be shown in WindowX depending on the status on which the transition is launched.

I've tried to configure Behaviour plugin in this way:

CF1       is associated to a validation script:

if(getActionName() == "X" && getDestinationStepName() != "En Entrega"){
getFieldByName("CF1").setHidden(false);
}

if(getActionName() == "X" && getDestinationStepName() == "En Entrega"){ 
getFieldByName("CF1").setHidden(true);
}

But, when I launch the action "X" from the "En Entrega" status (where the destination step is "En Entrega"), the customfield "CF1" isn't shown.

All help is welcome!!

I'm not sure why you need to check the destination step name. If the action name is X, and it's a global action you know the destination step name. So you could check the current step name in conjunction with the action name.

That said, getDestStep uses the OSWorkflow API, so if it doesn't give you a destination step for a global action there's not much I can do.
