Workshop widgets feature request

Hi all.
I’ve summarized some feature requests.

Custom placeholders
I would highly appreciate the possiblity to set custom placeholders for Object dropdowns, Date inputs and so on (every widget that today is limited to english) - like I can do in a Text input or String selector.

Checkboxes
I also would like the Checkbox widget to have two buttons, on for true and one for false instead of as today that the value is default false and a checkbox for true. I would like to be able to choose between these to workflows.

Object list/Property list
I would like the object list widget and property list widget to behave in the same way as a object table regarding ‘Custom “no value” display’. As of today I can not change the representation of “No value” in the widgets.

Hi @Enok9090

Nice proposals :slight_smile:

On your 2nd point “Checkboxes” I assume you would like to have a nicely looking “toggle” button right? Are you aware of the workaround to use the tabs widget? You can basically wire the tab change event to also set your target variable. There is only not-so-nice thing… To make the tab widget show the active color correctly you need to wire it to an actual tab change event (which can take place in a hidden section). But I read somewhere here in the forum, that PD is looking into how a simple variable value would also set the visibility properly :slight_smile:

Will result in:

Hi @Phil-M
I am aware of that solution but thank you for your solution, maybe it can help someone else. :slight_smile:

My workaround is a function that takes a string (output from a String selector, which is my preferred layout in this particular case) and return is a boolean.

I forgot to add another feature request and was unable to edit my post in pending state.

  • I want to customize the value formatting in a Date widget. I know I can format the property value, but I want to customize the look and feel of the widget in Workshop so that it follows my UI/UX idea.

Best regards
