Description: It could be usefoul to have the possibility to set a modular form (not the table one, but the "graphic" type) to show multiple records, ie to repeat the form for each record. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a modular form 2. Open form 3. Only a record can be shown Actual Results: Display only a record at time Expected Results: Show multiple records Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: This feature can be usefoul to create rich views of data with graphic elements.
Would be good if you could show with an image. I don't know what the difference to table controls in a form should be. The only part, which table controls don't show are images, but you could add an image control instead.
Created attachment 163737 [details] Illustration of the idea
As additional explanation, as you can see in attachment image you could populate each record-form with status icon of the record and action button to call macro with record reference.
Don't know for which special thing you will use this forms. I would prefer the table control. Macros could also be started, for example by a checkbox. And a checkbox could show the status for TRUE, FALSE and NULL. But it is a whish for enhancement and I will set it to NEW.
I see the usefulness in this. An example might be for displaying and entering data for a family of objects havin some common element data, but also individually editable data. Take a patent or trademark family: - usually there is an initial filing in an intial territory - followed by filings in other territories, with optionally a link back to the first filing date - common data is shared between the family (e.g. applicant, inventors, adresses, etc) which would be displayed in a separate section (generally above the other entries) - one or more members of the family may be active, or abandoned, as suggested with the green light/yellow light icon - different procedural deadlines might apply for each different member of the family Currently, this can be done using a grid view, but it is easy to lose focus when editing tuples in a grid view, whereas separate form blocks with controls as suggested by the OP could potentially facilitate data entry.
