How to extend ViewQuickcreate

I need to add some custom JS for fields in QuickCreate form in custom module. I tried to create views/view.quickcreate.php file in which I extended ViewQuickcreate class. But it looks like this doesn’t work since Xdebug could not hit breakpoint installed inside overridden display(). Any ideas how to override default view for QuickCreate?

Oh, it looks like we need to name view file as view.subpanelquickcreate.php and the view class name should be SubpanelQuickCreate

What class did you extend your SubpanelQuickCreate?

This is what I have and it is working. The file is in custom/modules/Cases/views/view.subpanelquickcreate.php


<?php

require_once('include/EditView/SubpanelQuickCreate.php');

class CasesSubpanelQuickCreate extends SubpanelQuickCreate
{
    public function CasesSubpanelQuickCreate(){
        ?>
        <script>
        $( document ).ready(function(){
            alert('hello');
        })
        </script>
        <?php
        parent::SubpanelQuickCreate("Cases");
    }
}

I am trying to pull parent name (contact name) into my custom field with this extension however I am unable to get it. Can someone give me a hand with this. As of now im just getting parent_name_advanced in my field.

<?php
require_once('include/EditView/SubpanelQuickCreate.php');

class CasesSubpanelQuickcreate extends SubpanelQuickCreate {

public function CasesSubpanelQuickcreate() {
    $_REQUEST['contacts_cases_1_name'] = 'parent_name_advanced';
    parent::SubpanelQuickCreate("Cases");
}
}
