Set reference field value in UI page and show i icon aside of it.

[Abhijit4]

Hello Everyone,

I have reference field in UI page where I am setting the value as below,

<g:ui_reference name="module" id="module" table="u_nowmodule"/>

gel('module').value='7cf7a0861be55c50191adc6a9b4bcb1d';
gel('sys_display.module').value='Incident Management';

this sets the value fine but it is not showing i icon beside it. Please refer below image,

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I think I've found a better way to do this. The script which verifies the new reference field value is on an onChange event handler, which isn't triggered when the value is updated programatically. 

Running this script (to manually dispatch the event) after the value change makes it work much better for me.

document.getElementById('module').dispatchEvent(new Event('change'));
