List view shows 0 or 1 instead of checkmark

[transcan]

When entering a new record, a checkmark prompt is properly displayed.

When in List view, a value of 0 or 1 appears whether it is checked or not when entering the record. How can a setting or delegate change the 0 or 1 to supposed show No or Yes for example?

Also, when in view mode within detail mode, the field does not appear whatsoever. How can this be made to show the field and thus No or Yes as well?

Thanks in advance.

Hi transcan
For list view you can have a delegate class like that:

Code: Select all

function field__rendercell(&$record){
      if ( $record->val('field') == '1' ){
      return '<B>YES</B>';
    }
      else return 'NO';
   }

where 'field' is your check-box field name.

Overriding renderCell() will only affect the appearance in the list view. If you want to override the appearance everywhere you could override the display() method.

i.e.:

Code: Select all

function fieldname__display(&$record){
    if ( $record->val('fieldname') ) return 'Yes';
    else return 'No';
}


Alternatively you could achieve what you want by implementing a valuelist and applying it to the field using the vocabulary directive.

e.g.

in the delegate class:

Code: Select all

function valuelist__yesno(){
    return array(0=> 'No', 1=>'Yes');
}


and in the fields.ini file:

Code: Select all

[fieldname]
    vocabulary=yesno

I could not test your solution. This thread is somewhat related to another:

Since I used a workaround, making yes or no appear became moot.

Thanks again.
