Hi,

I am finding that I am repeating a lot of duplicate information on my view:

For instance if I have 40 fields that all have the same "attrs" properties.  Instead of needing to repeat this on ever single field, is there a way I can set a variable that contains the string for which I can dynamically add to each field.  I there only need to change the variable in one place instead of every field?

e.g:

<field name="field1" string="Field 1" attrs="+$attrsvariable+" />"

Thanks,
Damien

I am not sure this will help, as It is not just about user groups, as you can see I looking at both user groups and also workflow state.  I am ending up repeating the attrs value across everyline.  Is there a way to set this in a variable once and reuse it in each of the lines:

<tr><th nowrap="true">Division Code</th><td><field name="divisionAU" attrs="{'readonly':['&amp;','|','&amp;',('groupEngineering','!=','YES'),('groupMarketing','!=','YES'),('state','=','Completed'),('state','!=','draft')]}"/> Australia | <field name="divisionNZ" attrs="{'readonly':['&amp;','|','&amp;',('groupEngineering','!=','YES'),('groupMarketing','!=','YES'),('state','=','Completed'),('state','!=','draft')]}"/>New Zealand</td></tr> <tr><th nowrap="true">Product Status</th><td><field name="itemStatus" attrs="{'readonly':['&amp;','|','&amp;',('groupEngineering','!=','YES'),('groupMarketing','!=','YES'),('state','=','Completed'),('state','!=','draft')]}"/></td></tr>


Second issue that I am hoping to resolve with the availability of a variable is as follows:


If a certain value is selected in a "type" field it should display the following state line with the appropriate states:

<field name="state" widget="statusbar" statusbar_visible="draft,PendingEng,PendingMan,PendingFinance,PendingApproval,Completed" />

However if the other value is selected, it should use the following:

<field name="state" widget="statusbar" statusbar_visible="draft,PendingEng,,Completed" />

Thoughts?

Hi Damien, can't say exactly about the dynamic variable functionality which you mentioned,but you can avoid adding the attrs condition to each field using group tag.

You need to add all your fields[where you want to set attrs condition] under a group tag, and add attrs condition to the group tag which will be applying for all the fields.
