Hi Usman,

You are almost doing it right way but you did just a small mistake. In the states attribute, you need to pass the one or more states separated by comma (,) and not the domain.

Ex:

<attribute name="states">sale,done</attribute>
The button will be visible only in sale and done state and will be hidden for other states.

Or you can use attrs as well instead of states attribute.

Examples of possible solutions:

1. Only state = cancel

a) <attribute name="states">cancel</attribute>
b) <attribute name="attrs">{'invisible': [('state', '!=', 'cancel')]}</attribute>
c) <attribute name="attrs">{'invisible': [('state', 'not in', ('cancel',))]}</attribute>

2. state = cancel  or state = done

a) <attribute name="states">cancel,done</attribute>
b) ---
c) <attribute name="attrs">{'invisible': [('state', 'not in', ('cancel','done'))]}</attribute>

Hello @Usman,

Kindly use the below code.

<xpath expr="//button[@name='print_quotation']" position="attributes">

<attribute name="attrs">{'invisible': [('state', 'not in', [ 'cancel'])]}</attribute>

</xpath>

<xpath expr="//button[@name='print_quotation']" position="replace">

<!-- <attribute name="attrs">{'invisible': [('state', 'not in', 'done')]}</attribute> -->

<attribute name="attrs">{'invisible': [('state', 'not in', [ 'sale'])]}</attribute>

</xpath>

</field>

i put this query but i still not getting my require result ....

i just want to show print button only in sale state

It is not working because that button already has states attribute added in the core module.

States always reflected as attrs when it is parsed. So better to change its states attribute as shown in my answer.
