Choosers for parameters of a table¶
New feature: until now it was not possible to write a chooser for a
field of lino.core.actors.Actor.parameters. Now it is. Regression danger.
This feature was needed for solving the following problem (from docs/tickets/123):
Die Tabelle
ml.courses.SuggestedCoursesByPupilmuss noch ein bisschen intelligenter und ergonomischer werden: die Auswahlliste in der Combobox “Stadt” (der Tabellenparameter) beschränken auf die Städte, für die es Kurse gibt.
TODO: After implementing this I understood that this is still not the
perfect solution for our problem. In fact we need a choicelist with a
hard-coded list of “course regiona”: geographical subdivisions of the
area covered by the site owner. Every room gets assigned one region.
The lino.core.actors.Actor.parameters (and lino.core.actors.Actor.params_layout)
must then become “dynamic”, adding one checkbox per region (replacing
the current combox city). “dynamic” means here: after
lino.core.site.Site.setup_choicelists() but before generating the
linolib.js. This wll probably require some other cool new
features.
Clickable foreign keys¶
New feature: Clickable foreign keys in a grid are now less “intrusive”: instead of making the whole text clickable, we now prefix a clickable xsite/link.png icon.
Miscellaneous changes in Renamed “Lino Faggio” to “Lino Voga”¶
Change in database structure:
New field ref for ml.courses.Line.
New feature:
New action ml.cal.ShowEventsByDay on Event and on Reservation
is a handy shortcut to “Show all calendar events of the same day.”
