Clickable many2one fields for tree views

This addon provides a separate widget to allow many2one or reference fields in a tree view open the linked resource when clicking on their name.

You can also define a system parameter to have this behaviour for all the existing many2one fields in tree views.

Installation

Install it the regular way.

Configuration

If you want to have all many2one and reference fields clickable by default, you have to define in Configuration > Technical > Parameters > System parameters, a new parameter with name web_tree_many2one_clickable.default and with value true.

Usage

For the widget option, you need to add widget="many2one_clickable" attribute in the XML field definition in the tree view.

For example:

<field name="partner_id" widget="many2one_clickable" />

will open the linked partner in a form view.

Known issues / Roadmap

• You cannot deactivate clickable behaviour for an specific many2one field if you configure the system parameter.
• The value of the system parameter is retrieved for each many2one field present in the view instead of only once.
