Smartgrid layout question

[funm...@gmail.com]

Hi all,

I have a couple questions about the layout built by smartgrid.

1) My smartgrid has a couple linked tables. They show up nicely as links on the right hand side of the grid. Is there a way to control which linked table to be listed first? It looks like that it is sorted by alphabetical order from A to Z.

2) when the page is built with the smartgrid, it shows the db name in the upper left area. Is there a way to change it to something else?

Thanks

1) The code says it is possible to pass in linked_tables as a dictionary, in which case it will put the links together in the order produced by linked_tables.keys().  This may or may not give you what you want.  Quoting the Python web site, "The keys() method of a dictionary object returns a list of all the keys used in the dictionary, in arbitrary order (if you want it sorted, just apply the sorted() function to it)."

My suggestion is to just play with it.  As a starting point, try linked_tables = dict(sometable='id', othertable='id')

2) Check layout.html.  Again, spend some time playing with it.

sorry... i need some coffee. Typed the wrong name of table above.

Case 1) - I still can't get demo_detail to be listed first. My smartgrid shows achievement first and then demo_detail.

I've tried a few combination, and it didn't get to what I want.

1) linked_tables=['demo_detail','achievement'].sort(reverse=True)
2) linked_tables=dict(demo_detail=id,achievement='id')

Case 1) - I still can't get achievement to listed first. My smartgrid shows achievement first and then demo_detail.
Case 2) For the linked_tables=dict() one, the linked tables disappeared from the smartgrid.

regards,

Sorry... it's really my bad. But to answer myself to share what could be done.

                                                ^^^^^^^
Option 2 is indeed working. I missed the '' for the id... Now, i am happy.

Cliff, Thanks very much for your help on this.

Ovidio,

I have a similar need, but not exactly an icon. I want to change the "file" link to reflect the original file name. I got too busy and haven't got enough time to research it.

If anyone know how to or may point a direction for you or me, it will be great.
