Thanks James,

Here are some more elements to convince Taher that it was not a shoot in the 
dark.

They are all available from http://ofbiz.apache.org/release-notes-16.11.01.html, just 
look for "grid"

http://markmail.org/message/4m3vgq4wdvo7ziaj

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-6404

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-6501

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-6502

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-7029

So it's not 100% done, but I don't see myself reverting all this work with 
really good reasons!

Hi Taher,

Common grid functionalities include pivots, sorting columns, multiple-row
header, aggregate functions, in-grid editing etc. IMO, these should be
standard grid features for modern ERP. I see the value of the extraction. It
would be difficult to innovate in the future if lists are still coupled with
forms.

Regards,
James Yong

Still seems unclear. What is the value of this extraction? How is it
implemented? Who intends on implementing the new features if any? What are
the new features? How does that play into the UI refactoring intended
within themes? What do we gain by this whole exercise? Given that we lost
Adrian, someone should have answers to these questions before we commit to
such a large body of work. There are hundreds if not thousands of such
forms all over the code base.

That is what you get in transitional stages. But then again, OFBiz offers
lots of flexibility in order to get from A to Z.

As I read it, it was the intention of Adrian to simplify (I would like to
extract list functionality from the form widget and create a new grid
widget). But you can't remove the functionality until all referenced
widgets are converted (the backward compatibility).

So it's two widgets that output an identical HTML structure with no
plan
in
sight of making a differentiation. This is now putting in the code base
two
ways of achieving the same thing (more complexity) for no added value.
Maybe we need to discuss the added value and direction of such work.

Hi Taher,

It's explained here http://markmail.org/message/77swtjvr6q25rq4d

Quoting Adrian.

<&lt;Finally, I would like to extract list functionality from the
form
&gt; > widget
and create a new grid widget. So, instead of a form widget
representing a
single data entry form OR a list, it will ONLY represent a single
form.
If
you want a list, you use the grid widget. Initially, this change will
be
backwards-compatible - the XML parser will accept a
<form>
  element for
both
types and it will create the correct model based on the type
attribute.>>
Initially I wondered if Adrian had not a CSS idea in mind, I can't
clearly
remember if we discussed it or not

Hi Jacques,

What is the purpose of converting list forms to grids?
