I'm trying to make a smartgrid using a table that has references to other (auth_user). The smartgrid show up but it does not include the field where I reference the other table.

with code:

-- in the db:

auth = Auth(db, hmac_key=Auth.get_or_create_key())
crud, service, plugins = Crud(db), Service(), PluginManager()

## create all tables needed by auth if not custom tables
auth.define_tables()
...

db.define_table('attachment',
    Field('name'),
    Field('filename'),
Field('submitted_by', db.auth_user, default=None, readable=False, writable=False),
    format='%(name)s')

-- in the controllers:
def show_files():
    form = SQLFORM.smartgrid(db.attachment)
    return dict(form=form)

The generated smargrid does not show the "submitted_by" field. How can I make that happen? I would like to see auth_user representation and if I click on it brings the complete auth_user entry.


Thank you

P.S.: In the book there is an example that shows the "opposite" of what I want to do using the linked_tables=[] parameter that allows us to drill down from a parent smartgrid into a child.
