No news? Is a bug or is not possible to replicate the error?

This is a bug. It will be fixed in a later version, but in the meantime, here is a work around.

In the delegate class’s init() method:

Code: Select all

function init(&$table){     $myfield =& $table->getField('my_enum_field');     $myfield['widget']['type'] = 'hidden'; }

Where ‘my_enum_field’ is an enum field.

I am using version 1.1.5r2 and still have the problem to hide enum field or make enum field static.

Is the bug solved?

Evidently not. Please use workaround described in this thread until it is fixed.

Sorry for reopen this topic but I try to add this:

function init(&$table){

$myfield =& $table->getField(‘Allegato_mimetype’);

$myfield[‘widget’][‘type’] = ‘hidden’;

}

and

in fields.ini

[Allegato_mimetype]

widget:type=hidden

but the in list view field Allegato_mimetype is still visible!!

with

Code: Select all

[Allegato_mimetype] visibility:list=0

it’s working

What about the functionnality “widget type=hidden” in the xataface current version ?

It still seems not to work.

Thanks in advance.

Hello !

I had a try with this code in the delegate class :

Code: Select all

function init(&$table){     $myfield =& $table->getField('my_enum_field');     $myfield['widget']['type'] = 'hidden'; }

and it works fine.

Hope the actual implementation of the widget type hidden will come a day …
