inherited form does not display correctly?
I'm very new to Openerp so please bare with me if my mistake is too obvious :-)
I'm trying to create a new model called clients.client inheriting from res.partner
The code partially works, but the problem now is that the form displays differently than expected. The form view shows all the views of the parent view as well as the new field, but the order and look is not as expected. Can someone help?
the clients.py code is the same as above (no change):
from openerp.osv import osv, fields
class clients_client(osv.osv):
_inherit = 'res.partner'
_name = 'clients.client'
_columns = {
'id_type': fields.char('ID Type', size=30),
}
clients_client()
the clients_view.xml looks like this after modification:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<openerp>
<data>
<record model="ir.ui.view" id="view_clients_client_form">
<field name="name">clients.client.form</field>
<field name="model">clients.client</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form"/>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<xpath expr="//field[@name='active']" position="after">
<field name="id_type"/>
</xpath>
</field>
</record>
<record model="ir.actions.act_window" id="action_clients_client">
<field name="name">Clients</field>
<field name="res_model">clients.client</field>
<field name="view_type">form</field>
<field name="view_mode">tree,form</field>
</record>
<menuitem name="Clients/Clients/Clients" id="menu_clients_client" action="action_clients_client"/>
</data>
</openerp>
As I said before, the form looks different form the way it looks in other modules. Please see the picture:

Can someone help me get the form to look the same way?
Hello , You must delete all the fields that you don't want to show with <xpath expr="//field[@name='active']" position="replace"/>.
I want to show them all, but the form does not show as expected. please see the image link i provided above to know what I mean.
