Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-3541:
----------------------------------------

Hi Bruno,

2 things I thought about lookups
* why not create macro like for currency, etc. instead of an import to be done 
for each call (this is also true for renderPrevNext)
* in a WIP I changed all calls in FTL files (but for Workeffort which call 
other lookups inside itself) from lookup2 to lookupLayer. This is not a big 
deal as it's only a simple S/R on all files. But I'd like to avoid the 
conflicts we will get if we don't synchronize our efforts.  At which date do 
you expect to commit a global work on this?

> The attached patch introduces a way to let developers to use the templates 
> defined in htmlMacroFormLibrary.ftl in the FTL files.
> This was discussed in the mailing list and it seems that we all agree that 
> having this feature could be a good thing.
> In the patch I used the renderLookupField in the main.ftl file of the catalog 
> application. By doing this the two lookups that are included in this ftl are 
> now rendered similar to how they are from a form widget.
> This allows the Tomahawk theme to render these lookups in the supposed way 
> (with the card icon).
> Doing this I changed the macro in the htmlMacroFormLibrary.ftl to have all 
> parameters with a default value so that only the relevant ones must be 
> specified in the FTL.
> A new template.ftl file has been added but this only includes the 
> htmlMacroFormLibrary.ftl. I do not know if there is a better way to have the 
> macro available in the FTL file.
> Please fill free to comment any of the choise I did so that we could then 
> commit this and extend to other macros.
> I guess the next one I will address is the renderNextPrev so that all 
> paginations will look the same in all forms/FTL screens.
