Clickable phone number to open dialer Mendix Native

0
I want to have a phone number shown (as link) on the screen, and that when the user clicks on it, it will open the dialer app from the phone to make the call to this number. Preferably being able to retrieve the number from the database in some way.   For web applications, you can simply add a Link Button (regular action button that opens link on-click) and set it to 'Call' as action. But this feature is not available in Native platform pages.  Not even the option to make the button look like a link at all.  Any ideas?

Hi, 

 

You could add a button (or text) with dynamic caption. Caption should be the phone number you want to call. 

For opening the dialer, in the nanoflow commons module there's a CallPhoneNumber javascript action you could use.
