Learn to apply bold, italic, and color styles to Odoo tree view fields using decoration-bf, decoration-it, and color attributes for better data visibility.
In Odoo, enhancing tree view appearance helps users quickly identify critical information. With options to make text bold, italic, or even change colors, you can customize tree views to highlight essential data. Let’s explore how to use attributes like decoration-bf
, decoration-it
, and decoration-info
in Odoo.
To make text bold in a tree view, use the decoration-bf attribute. This attribute applies bold styling based on a condition. Here’s an example:
<tree string="Sale Orders">
<field name="name" decoration-bf="state == 'draft'" />
</tree>
In this example:
state
field is set to draft
. This helps visually emphasize draft records.To apply italic styling in a tree view, use the decoration-it attribute. It’s ideal for subtly differentiating certain records. Below is an example:
<tree string="Sale Orders">
<field name="name" decoration-it="state == 'cancel'" />
</tree>
Here, decoration-it is used to apply italic styling when state
is cancel
, making canceled records visually distinct.
For coloring text, use attributes like decoration-info, decoration-danger, or decoration-warning. Here’s an example of how to change text color conditionally:
<tree string="Sale Orders">
<field name="name" decoration-info="state == 'sent'" />
<field name="state" />
</tree>
In this case:
state
is sent
.You can apply multiple decorations to a single field, making the text bold, italic, and colored based on various conditions:
<tree string="Sale Orders">
<field name="name" decoration-bf="state == 'draft'" decoration-it="state == 'cancel'" decoration-danger="state == 'cancel'" />
</tree>
This example combines bold, italic, and color styling, making the record bold if it’s in draft and italic and red if canceled.
Using decoration-bf
, decoration-it
, and color options in Odoo tree views enhances data readability and makes important records easy to spot. By applying these styling attributes, you can tailor your interface to suit business needs and improve the user experience.
