Display of field_names in status_box


Hi,

we have a number of fields which, in the underlying DataModel, are qualified with the table_name.

- In a multi_selection_box we have on many charts, an alias_name can be assigned to a field

<=> In a status_box (which we have underneath that on most charts), the original fieldname is used. That, however, is

just too long and the available space in that status_box is quickly used up.

=> Can I somehow set the fields to be displayed (so I cannot use HidePrefix), but with an alias_name?

Thanks a lot!

Best regards,

DataNibbler

I would suggest, when you do the alias. use a very short suffix to the field name. a max of 2 or 3 character codes to specify which table is it coming from. with this, as a developer you can also find the field easily and will also not hamper the table relation.
