Hi:
Recently we needed render some boolean widgets as a combobox with 2 posible values: Yes or No.
I ask to the list if this change can be useful to integrate it to the
woody sample stylesheet. Currently boolean fields can be only rendered as
checkboxes.
The solution to this is to use a <wd:field> of type boolean with a selection list.
Although it may seem curious at first that we have two different widgets for boolean values, you have to consider the wide range of possible ways to display selection lists: drop-down menu, radio buttons (including orientation) and lists. Adding a selection list to <wd:booleanfield> would require to duplicate this styling, which isn't very convenient.
