Hi,

I've got a relationship set up something like this:

table: Food

table: food_types

In "food_types" is a list like "fruit","vegetable","protein","pasta", etc.

So, to mark a food as two types, like "fruit", and "protein", I need to go to that tab, and add each record individually.

Is there any way to list out the options, like you would with a valuelist?

For legacy purposes, I need to keep the selected values in a separate table. Maybe there is a way to do this with valuelists and a delegate class? If someone could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. Otherwise, I'll have to stick with the relationship model, which is something I could live with.

Consider using a transient field with a checkbox widget in the parent table:

Code: Select all

[myrelationshipfield]
transient=1
relationship=myrelationship
widget:type=checkbox


This will add a field to your edit form where each possible related record has a checkbox that you can check.

Ahhh - that's what I was looking for! Thanks! I love Xataface!
