Re: Add color field for stock list

You can use <alt-row-style use-when="" style=""/>
And add your style on a dedicate css file.

However the style attribute isn't parse by FlexibleStringExpender so you 
can't write a simple line like :

<alt-row-style use-when="product.featureColor != null" 
style="${product.featureColor}"/>

For that you need to improve the form renderer ;)

Like I said, your approach is not the best way.

You can create a template in the Content component to contain the HTML 
fragment that displays product-specific content.

Re: Add color field for stock list

Hi Adrian,

Maybe I don't really understand what you mean but if it's :
Add the color in a picture and attach it as a content to the product.

It's not acceptable in my case because the color is a feature that 
contained color hexa code.
With your suggestion it's really difficult to maintain (picture file 
creation, linked to the product, etc.)

With a color field I just have to put the color code in field attribute 
and it will be displayed in the form.
I have generated a patch that can explain it : 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5849

So to have my color in the form, simply add this :
        <field name="couleur">
            <color value="${productColor}"/>
        </field>

Then it will generate :

<img src="/images/webapp/images/img/color-field.png" 
style="background-color=#DE2315"/>

color-field.png is to have a square color field (25x25 px).
Style will overload css file

I think it's more flexible and easier. But maybe it's not the best way 
to add color feature linked to a product in table form.
Any suggestions are welcome :)

Regards,

Julien.

Most likely such a change will not make it into the project. HTML 
element styling is under the control of the visual theme.

If you want to display product-specific content, then use the Content 
application.

Re: Add color field for stock list

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for your answer, I feel less alone :)

I was looking for this but create a specific css file for each color let 
me feel that it's not THE solution.

We was working on something like that : 
custom-style="background-color=${product.featureColor}"
But our source code failed (I think now I know why).

So I start to improve form renderer by adding a color field that just 
display color.
I think this is the best way but... I do it and my source code failed...

I'm opening Jira to put my patch on and see if this improvement is 
interesting to be added. I hope to see some comment on why it's not 
working as well.

Julien.
