Resolution
Perform the following local-change:
- Add another button for an iPad specific case to upload the file directly and attach it to the case without any modal window.
- Create a new Attach control.
- Provide Visibility for mobile devices.
- Provide the Category to the control.
- Use a property reference.
- Populate the value from another dropdown.
