This module aims to add support for dynamically coloring fields in tree view according to data in the record.
- Add attribute
bg_color
on field'soptions
to color background of a cell in tree view - Add attribute
fg_color
on field'soptions
to change text color of a cell in tree view
Table of contents
In the tree view declaration, put
options='{"bg_color": "red: customer==True"}
attribute in thefield
tag:... <field name="arch" type="xml"> <tree string="View name"> ... <field name="name" options='{"bg_color": "red: customer == True"}'/> ... </tree> </field> ... With this example, column which renders 'name' field will have its background colored in red.
In the tree view declaration, put
options='{"fg_color": "white:customer == True"}'
attribute in thefield
tag:... <field name="arch" type="xml"> <tree string="View name"> ... <field name="name" options='{"fg_color": "white:customer == True"}'/> ... </tree> </field> ... With this example, column which renders 'name' field will have its text colored in white on a customer records.
If you want to use more than one color, you can split the attributes using ';':
options='{"fg_color": "red:red_color == True; green:green_color == True"}'
Example:
...
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<tree string="View name">
...
<field name="name" options='{"fg_color": "red:red_color == True; green:green_color == True"}'/>
...
</tree>
</field>
...
With this example, the content of the field named `my_color` will be used to
populate the `my_color` CSS value. Use a function field to return whichever
color you want depending on the other record values. Note that this
overrides the rest of `colors` attributes, and that you need the tree
to load your field in the first place by adding it as invisible field.
Note that you should always use single quotes for fields' ``options`` and wrap nested values in double quotes since ``options`` is a JSON object.
- Before version 13.0, this module had a feature allowing to change the color of
a line depending on a field, using a
colors
attribute with the name of the field on the<tree>
element. Since 13.0, thecolors
attribute is no longer in the RelaxNG schema of the tree view, so we can't use it anymore. This feature has then been dropped, but could be reimplement in another way.
