Hi,
I'm trying to add a custom selection box, but I am running into an issue with max field length.
In my field setup, I have chosen Field Type:selection and entered...
[('straight_hem','Straight Hem'), ('adjustable_hem','Adjustable Hem'), ('ribbed_hem', 'Ribbed Hem')]
...in the SELECTION OPTIONS, which works.
However if it won't let me add any more options because I'm exceeding the 128 character max limit.
Am I doing this the right way? :)
By chance I saw this yesturday - a trick using a function and tuple
Go here and scroll down to "selection"
Its from V6 but should be ok for V7
I don't know how to code.. I was hoping to do this though the GUI. Thanks

A short-term workaround would be to use smaller text strings, such as:
[('s','Straight Hem'),('a','Adjustable Hem'),('r','Ribbed Hem')]
That get's you from 100 characters to 64.
Another option to consider is to create a Model for this list and replace the selection field by a one2many relation field.
Thanks for this. I have a few fields that require a lot more options than this so it looks like I'll need to create a model. Would you be able to point me to the exact section in the manual I need to read about this? I am a beginner developer at best so need pointing in the right direction. Thank you.
It's ok - I found this: http://help.openerp.com/question/378/creating-a-new-model-example/ - thank you.
