Knowingly creating bad software because someone wants it to be bad and not collaborating with them to make it better just confuses me |

..but you’re a developer, your expertise in UI should be greater than your client in most instances, so guiding them on good working practises and UI is part of the role I think |

I’m just following what the client wants http://webapplayers.com/inspinia_admin-v2.9.3/form_basic.html |

As they’re related items as part of a set |

The label should be close to the input imho |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 11:32 |
neon1024 |
At least right align the label so I don’t have to look right across and try to remember what the label is when I’m looking at the input |

If you want to check whether it was a non-change? Sure, that should work. |

would property be marked as dirty even if the value was not changing |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 11:15 |
birdy247 |
$this->save($entity) |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 11:15 |
birdy247 |
and then $entity->property = 1; |

Single checkbox with a custom template |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 11:08 |

Ok so do the multiple doesnt work the form fails validation |

*global templates |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:59 |
ndm |
If you're not messing too much with the global labels, then using custom HTML and non-`control()` inputs should give you pretty much free hand for solving complicated/special cases... also sometimes there's no way around overriding templates on a per-control basis. |

I think my problem is I learned html way to early and didn't evolve to this HTML 5 stuff |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:55 |
ndm |
I'd probably start smoking again if I also had to write the docs for all the stuff :grimacing: |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:54 |
challgren |
That is until I want to wrap the checkbox in a div |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:54 |
challgren |
It works as a dirty hack around but as of right now it's not documented well |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:52 |
ndm |
Maybe there's also a cleaner way, ie not appropriating the multi checkbox stuff, but I'd have to look into that a little deeper... getting this horizontal stuff to work wasn't easy |

Damn thing is making me chain smoke |

Feb 10th 2020, 10:51 |

Oh yeah duh! |

Feb 10th 2020, 10:51 |

Use a single option? |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:50 |
challgren |
The label is fixed |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:50 |
challgren |
Bad, I just want a single checkbox there |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:49 |

I don't know if that's good or nah :upside_down_face: |

Should generate something like that |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:46 |
ndm |
You'd need to pass some options, ie `<?= $this->Form->control('active', ['multiple' => 'checkbox', 'options' => [1 => 'Option one', 2 => 'Option two', /* ... */]]); ?>` |

`<?= $this->Form->control('active', ['multiple' => 'checkbox']); ?>` generates |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:42 |
ndm |
That should work when using `'multiple' => 'checkbox'`, it will put the control label on the left, and the individual checkboxes with their labels on the right |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:39 |
challgren |
It does following this example https://github.com/FriendsOfCake/bootstrap-ui/tree/cake-4-bs-4#horizontal-form but i need the label on the left and the box in the right column |
# |
Feb 10th 2020, 10:34 |
ndm |
Ok, if you remove your global templates, use a horizontal form, and `'multiple' => 'checkbox'`, does it come close to what you're looking for? |
