Hi Bilgin,
Glad you are also interested by that. Sure, actually all is already in trunk. It was 1st commited by Andrew at r894277, 894460,
894480, 894671, 904198. Then, at r904922, I just fixed an issue related to the new layer lookup feature (Ajaxified lookup, thanks to
Sascha's work) that I will explain and certainly generalize soon in trunk. Contrary at the lookup by name, this last feature is easy
to install and will replace the old popup lookups, if the community agree about that. There will be some positionning to do, though
we may simply center them all in screen, and that's it.
So to use them simply use this kind of syntax
<field name="facilityName"
title="${uiLabelMap.FormFieldTitle_facilityName}">
<lookup disabled="true" target-form-name="LookupFacilityName" description-field-name="parentFacilityId"
default-value="${parentFacilityName}"/></field>
<field name="facilityId"><hidden/></field>
instead of
<field name="facilityId"
title="${uiLabelMap.FormFieldTitle_facilityName}">
<lookup disabled="true" target-form-name="LookupFacility"/>
</field>
also in a new listLookupFacilityName, use
<field name="facilityId"><hidden/></field>
<field name="select" title="${uiLabelMap.CommonSelect}"
widget-style="smallSubmit">
<hyperlink also-hidden="false" target-type="plain" description="${facilityName}"
target="javascript:set_values('${facilityName}','${facilityId}')"/>
</field>
instead of
<field name="facilityId" title="${uiLabelMap.CommonEmptyHeader}"
widget-style="buttontext">
<hyperlink also-hidden="false" target-type="plain" description="${facilityId}"
target="javascript:set_values('${facilityId}', '${facilityName}')"/>
</field>
I let you figure out the details, I guess you have enough information for that
Cheers

Hi Scott,
Yes sorry for that, I forgot again :/
The only real change was the introduction of FieldLookupPopup2 which solves an
issue that can't be reproduced with OFBiz OOTB has
this functionnality is not used in OFBiz (yet?). It allows to show names
instead of Ids in lookups fields. This was needed by a
client but introduces some complexity when you use it (easier to deal directly
with an Id like the lookups do OOTB)

Hi Jacques,
would you share some code from your implementation to show names instead of Ids in lookup fields? I'm also interested in
implementing this functionality in form widgets.
