[shantanukul]

Hello Experts,

We are using List Tabbed widget on ESC Portal, and wanted to change the message it show when records are not present.

Would like to change it to, no records available!

Is there a way?

Thanks,

Shantanu

It is very much hardcoded into the widget and I would never recommend to clone a widget for a purpose like this. There is an alternative though, where you can alter the message by creating a sys_ui_message on the key. 

You create it in "sys_ui_message" and make sure the key is exactly how it is in the widget: "no records in {{data.table_label}} <span ng-if="data.filter">using that filter</span>" 

Then you set the language to english to have it "translated", and then you write your new line in messages. If you need data from the original one it is important to write it as it was. If you support more languages you need to do it per language.
