field_select with search_ui = :select and "not"

[Atastor]

Hi

how should I approach offering the possibility of negating a selection in a field_search form, where the column has search_ui = :select?

So just like in string-columns I would like to have a "not equal" operator. Using ":multiple => true"  is of course a possible workaround, but in my eyes less elegant.

You will have to override conditions for that column in the controller.

I thought overriding the conditions just overrode the actual search conditions. 

What I was looking for was a simple way to insert a select field with the comparison operators just in front of the select field with the actual values. Just like the operator select fields which are inserted automatically with all the other search_uis (just not so with :select).

I understood you only need to override the search conditions.

You will have to override active_scaffold_search_select and include the
operators
def active_scaffold_search_select(column, html_options)
operators html code << super
end
