Customize Display Tables

This part shows how to define a custom way to display entity types' data.

Table

This display table with DisplayTableDesignElement set to table will display the list of resources as a simple table filled with several columns.

Replace code attributes enclosed with <> with a custom value before entering the script in the command line.

<DisplayTable Identifier="Referentiel_Guest" DisplayTableDesignElement="table" EntityType="Referentiel_Guest" IsEntityTypeDefault="true">        <Column CanBeFiltered="true" DisplayBinding="Referentiel_Guest:Login" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" IsResizable="true" IsSortable="true" />        <Column CanBeFiltered="true" DefaultSortPriority="0" DisplayBinding="Referentiel_Guest:LastName" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" IsResizable="true" IsSortable="true" />        <Column CanBeFiltered="true" DisplayBinding="Referentiel_Guest:FirstName" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" IsResizable="true" IsSortable="true" />        <Column CanBeFiltered="false" DisplayBinding="Referentiel_Guest:PhoneNumber" DisplayName_L1="Telephone" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" IsResizable="true" IsSortable="true" />    </DisplayTable>

Ergonomically, it is recommended to hide the search symbol in a column header (in a list displayed like a table) if a criterion linked to this column is already displayed in a search bar. This avoids filter duplication. Thus, the <CanBeFiltered> property can be deleted in the <Column> argument.

Resource Table

Set DisplayTableDesignElement to resourcetable to create a table similar to the display table with DisplayTableDesignElement set to table and add a column containing the owner of the resource.

Replace code attributes enclosed with <> with a custom value before entering the script in the command line.

<DisplayTable Identifier="AD_Entry" EntityType="AD_Entry" DisplayTableDesignElement="resourcetable" IsEntityTypeDefault="true">    <Column DefaultSortPriority="1" DisplayBinding="dn" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" IsResizable="true" IsSortable="true" CanBeFiltered="true" ColumnSize="4" />    <Column DisplayBinding="userPrincipalName" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" IsResizable="true" IsSortable="true" CanBeFiltered="true" ColumnSize="2" />    <Column DisplayBinding="userAccountControl" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" IsResizable="true" IsSortable="true" CanBeFiltered="true" ColumnSize="1" />    <Column DisplayBinding="rdn" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" IsResizable="true" IsSortable="true" CanBeFiltered="true" ColumnSize="2" />    <Column DisplayBinding="displayName" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" IsResizable="true" IsSortable="true" CanBeFiltered="true" ColumnSize="2" />    <Column DisplayBinding="objectCategory" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" IsResizable="true" IsSortable="true" CanBeFiltered="true" ColumnSize="2" />  </DisplayTable>

Display Table with Tiles

.

Instead of creating a table, you can create tiles to give another rendering of the user interface. Create the different tiles first, then import them into the display table with <DisplayTableDesignElement> set to <list>. Display tables with other values of <DisplayTableDesignElement> can't display tiles.

See theTile topic for additional information.

tip

Remember, if the display table uses tiles, then you can't use bindings.

Replace code attributes enclosed with <> with a custom value before entering the script in the command line.

<Tile Identifier="Directory_User_Tile1" DisplayName_L1="User: first/last name" DisplayName_L2="Collaborateur : nom, prenom" EntityType="Directory_User" TileDesignElement="picture-text">    <Item Binding="MainRecord.FirstName" LineDisplayOrderIndicator="1" LineNumber="2" />    <Item Binding="MainRecord.LastName" LineDisplayOrderIndicator="2" LineNumber="2" />    <Item Binding="MainRecord.Title.DisplayName" LineNumber="3" />    <Item Binding="Id" LineNumber="5" />    <Item Binding="PhotoTag" LineNumber="6" />  </Tile>  <Tile Identifier="Directory_User_Tile2" DisplayName_L1="User: dep/loc" DisplayName_L2="Collaborateur : orga/site" EntityType="Directory_User" TileDesignElement="inline data-icon">    <Item Binding="MainRecord.Organization.DisplayName" LineNumber="1" />    <Item Binding="MainRecord.Location.DisplayName" LineNumber="2" />  </Tile>  <Tile Identifier="Directory_User_Tile3" DisplayName_L1="User: contact" DisplayName_L2="Collaborateur : contact" EntityType="Directory_User" TileDesignElement="inline data-icon">    <Item Binding="MainRecord.PhoneNumber" LineNumber="1" />    <Item Binding="MainRecord.MobileNumber" LineNumber="2" />  </Tile>  <DisplayTable Identifier="Directory_User" EntityType="Directory_User" DisplayTableDesignElement="list" IsEntityTypeDefault="true">    <Column DefaultSortPriority="1" ColumnSize="6" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" SortBinding="MainRecord.LastName" Tile="Directory_User_Tile1" />    <Column ColumnSize="3" IsDisplayInSummaryView="true" Tile="Directory_User_Tile2" />    <Column ColumnSize="3" Tile="Directory_User_Tile3" />  </DisplayTable>
