Reference field rendered as picklist with filter... AND custom snippet?

Have you tried to override the field metadata in the model?

Hi Pat. Picklist is not presented as an override option, unfortunately.

What is the filter criteria?

Ok - I realize this is using a hammer to strain a gnat.  But in V2 you can do conditional styling as a declarative feature.  This means you can get the highlighted field when the value is something (even blank),  as well as the picklist and reference field filtering. 

It’s a contact lookup that is rendered as a picklist with values filtered by the account set in another field in the row.

So in JS, I’d need to query this for each row (or filter it), so trying to leverage this functionality - all I want to do is highlight the field if it is null - not rebuild the picklist filter/generation capability.

Any thoughts?

I’m not even seeing an option to convert the reference to a picklist in v2 - where did the “field renderer” field go?

Wound up recreating it.  Was less JS than I anticipated.  For those that may need something similar, here it is.  The biggest risk is too many contacts, but I’ve got a filter on the model so I don’t have to requery on each row, just select the ones I’ve got.

I’m sure there are more elegant ways to do this, but it seems to work.

var field = arguments[0], 
value = arguments[1],
CounselContacts = skuid.$M(‘CounselContacts’),
selectedName = CounselContacts.getRowById(value),
$ = skuid.$; 

var row = field.row;
//get value of valuation status from row
var deals = skuid.$M(‘Deal_Pipeline’);

field.metadata.picklistEntries = ;
$.each(CounselContacts.getRows(), function(r,ccRow){
    if(ccRow.Name != selectedName.Name && deals.getFieldValue(row, ‘Company_Counsel_Firm__c’) == ccRow.AccountId ){
        field.metadata.picklistEntries.push({value: ccRow.Id, label: ccRow.Name, active: true});    
    }
});

skuid.ui.fieldRenderers[‘PICKLIST’]field.mode;

if(value == null){
        field.element.css({‘border-radius’: ‘3px’, ‘background’ : ‘#F4FF95’, ‘padding’ : ‘10px’ ,‘color’: ‘white !important’, ‘text-align’ : ‘left’ }); 

}

Look for the “Display As” field property on the table or form.  Relabled, but hopefully clearer.
