VLF-ONE Workbench Visual Ids

[jyoung]

When using the new VLF Workbench, how do you specify "Visual Ids" for the Instance List?

When I initially open the Instance List with a new object there are two "default' fields.

When I delete those fields, V1 seems to become the first string based field that is dropped onto the grid.
Then when I add my other fields to the list (don't have a V2), save and restart, the description "default" field comes back as V2.

When I delete the description field again, save and restart, it comes back.

I assume this is because I don't have a V2 field defined, but yet I cannot figure out how to define the visual ids for the list.

Thanks,
Joe

Hi Joe,

You have to have at least 2 visual IDs in the list.

To assign visual IDs, you can clear all the fields, and then when you drop fields in, the VLF should assign the first two alpha fields it gets as Visual ID1 and 2.

(You can delete a column while you are working with the list fields, but the VLF cannot store the absence of a Visual Id when you save. That is why it keeps coming back)
