Given this table... translator_format = lambda row: row.custom_name if (row.custom_name and row.custom_name.strip()) else "%s -> %s" %( db.notation(row.source_notation_id).notation_name, db.notation(row.target_notation_id).notation_name)
db.define_table("translator", # A name for the translator is not required. If the custom name is empty, the name will be computed # from the notation names Field("custom_name", "string", length=512, ), Field.Virtual("translator_name", translator_format), # ... format = translator_format, ) ... I'm trying to define this form: form = SQLFORM.factory( Field("translator_id", "reference translator", label=T("Translator"), requires = IS_IN_DB( db(translator_query), db.translator.id, translator_chooser_representation, zero=None, sort=False), ), # ... ) Now, within the format function, i cannot access the virtual field of the row: def translator_chooser_representation(r): return "%s" %(r.translator_name) ## This I'd like to use but it doesn't work return db.translator._format(r) ## This works, but I'd like the actual result to be different from the format Am I doing something wrong? -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
