Stop text input for item property in relationship grid
Hello, Is it possible to stop users from selecting an item for a item property using text input in something like the part number property of the product model relationship item? I've added a filter to the OnSearchDialog event of the property to limit the choices, but since it only triggers when the … button is used to open a dialog, I can still input any part number through text. Is there any way to stop this text input or do I have to make a method that checks the property OnCellChange to verify the selected value? /Rick
Override IType Property auto-label
After adding a property to an ItemType and tabbing from the property Name to the property Label there is the annoying behaviour I would like very much to override. I'd rather it stay blank than constantly needing to: Select all, delete, and finally enter a sensible label. I'm only critical of this annoyance because all the default labels are sensible, but whoever put together this auto-label didn't seem to take that into account. For instance, the default label for "team_id" is simply "Team", and the default label for "release_date" is "Release Date". So, why would tab-to automatically copy the property name? I'd like if tab to split on underscore and did a caps op on every word. Then, rather than constantly needing to delete the auto-label to enter one that conforms to the default look of out-the-box Innovator IType labels, it would actually be helpful! This is a quick JS example, and I think if ANY auto-label this should be it: ``` // Change "release_date" property name to desired default-looking, "Release Date": "release_date".split("_").map(x => x.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + x.substr(1,)).join(' ') ````
Compressed text property
Frequently, on ItemTypes, I use a "Text" property to store json data. Because, the json is very verbose and can be compressed to reduce the taken space in database and network traffic, I use LZString.compressToBase64 before a setProperty and LZString.decompressFromBase64 after a getProperty. This could be very developer friendly if ARAS could provide a new type named "compressed" (or whatever you want) doing this transparently. I don't know how to submit an idea, so I doing it here. Thank you for considering it. Regards.Display property value to be different from actual value
Hi, I would like to have a property value displayed differently than the actual value which is on the Item. I could have a field on the form, which can be set on form load, but I want the same behavior on the search grid, relationship grids as well. Thanks.
