Hi,
Probably the best (and easiest thing to do) is this:
Add a property to your model class that returns exactly what you want
the label to show.
In your case:
class Person(object):
# snipped your existing class
def get_gender_string(self):
if self.gender == -1:
return 'Not specified'
elif self.gender == 0:
return 'Male'
# etc
# now declare it as a property
gender_string = property(get_gender_string)
Now any instance of Person will have the gender_string property which
you can read as any other attribute: myperson.gender_string. Then
setting the label's model attribute to 'gender_string' instead of
'gender' will display what you want.
