You can edit this by hand in EditView.tpl files.

e.g. I have changed the Zip-City representation with following code:

<tr>
<td width='%' class="dataLabel" NOWRAP>
{sugar_translate label='LBL_CITY' module=''}:
</td>
<td width='%' class='tabEditViewDF' >
<input type="text" name="primary_address_postalcode" id="primary_address_postalcode" size="6" maxlength='150' value='{$fields.primary_address_postalcode.value}' tabindex="4">
<input type="text" name="primary_address_city" id="primary_address_city" size="20" maxlength='150' value='{$fields.primary_address_city.value}' tabindex="4">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>

This is the editview.php

Kuske refered to the EditView.tpl

[cagatay]

Which EditView.tpl do you refer?

There is no EditView.tpl file in my custom module?

OK let's start from scratch.

Sugar has a default template in each module directory for each view, e.g for accounts this is the file
\modules\Accounts\metadata\editviewdefs.php for the editview.

If you change the code in this default template in a clean installation then you will see the changes on the accounts editview.

    'panels' => array(
	   'lbl_account_information'=>array(
		        array(
                 array('name'=>'name', 
                       'displayParams'=>array('required'=>true)
                       ), 
                 array('name'=>'phone_office',
                       'customCode' => 
'<input name="ticker_symbol" size="6" maxlength="6" type="text" value="{$fields.ticker_symbolvalue}">&nbsp;<input name="phone_office" size="20" maxlength="20" type="text" value="{$fields.phone_office.value}">',
                      )
                 
                   ),

The first time you open an editview for an account the file
/cache/modules/Accounts/EditView.tpl will be generated (the file where I changed in my first post).

Every time you change the \modules\Accounts\metadata\editviewdefs.php you MUST delete this cache-file.

NOW, if you use the STUDIO to design your EditView, the STUDIO reads the default template \modules\Accounts\metadata\editviewdefs.php and generates a custom template in /custom/modules/Accounts/metadata/editviewdes.php.

Additionally it creates a copy in /custom/working/modules/Accounts/metadata/editviewdef.php.

In these file your changes look like:

      'panels' => 
      array (
        'Account Information' => 
        array (
          0 => 
          array (
            0 => 
            array (
              'name' => 'name',
              'displayParams' => 
              array (
                'required' => true,
              ),
              'label' => 'LBL_NAME',
            ),
            1 => 
            array (
              'name' => 'phone_office',
              'customCode' => '<input name="ticker_symbol" size="6" maxlength="6" type="text" value="{$fields.ticker_symbolvalue}">&nbsp;<input name="first_name" size="20" maxlength="20" type="text" value="{$fields.first_name.value}">',
              'label' => 'LBL_PHONE_OFFICE',
            ),
          ),

If you changed your editview already in STUDIO you should delete these two files before changing the default template.
They will be generated correctly again on calling the STUDIO - or - you enter your changes directly in these two files without changing the standard template (the method I prefer in my environment).

Always make backup copies of your changes!

Have fun with Sugar

Mr Harald Kuske

Thanks a lot for your long and detailed REPLY

As I mentioned here I am NEW in SUGAR

Now I did all what you said but what is interesting is that NO CHANGE can be seen in "edit view" page

Lets explain like that:

I have a new custom module:

root\modules\GF\

there is a editviews.php file in root\modules\GF\metadata\

There is also another editviews.php file in /custom/modules/GF/metadata/editviewdes.php.

These two files here atteched my post (without any changes)

Please could it be possible for you to make changes in these files and i will UPLOAD it again

I wonder are there any actions after editing php files ? (forget deleting CACHE fodler)

I did nothing except for deleting cache file

Best Regards

[kuske]

attached you can find the editviewsdef.php for root\modules\GF\metadata\ that should work,
if not I really have no idea why not.

You should delete the other in custom... and clear the cache, then open an GF object to edit.

Do not empty the cache folder manually,
Goto Admin-Repair-Quick Repair and Rebuild
Select your module (Accounts) and leave the check boxes.

After that it should work, I´ve just tried it myself.
