One of the main descriptors we are using for all of our manually archived documents is the document-type.
Currently in standard the only option is the selection-box, where you can provide multiple values for selection. The downside is, that users first need to click into the control to see all the values, which is one unnecessary click.
We would like to have a control where all the available values are displayed and one can be selected with a single click.
We have implemented this with a workaround using the classification schemes (see screenshot attached), but this involves heavy scripting effort which we want to get rid off.
This will be realized enhancing DBRecordSelector.
A DBRecordSelector can already be bound to global value list. If configured in non compact mode, this control offers the values without any additional click and the selected values are visible. The control can be used for multiselection as well as for single selection.
Well, what's missing is a selection of visible columns. Currently DBRecordSelector shows all columns defined in the referenced global value list.
We will offer a sorted list of display columns (where the index column might be hidden).
