DisplayType
The DisplayType user property is used for overriding the Type property at the field level in Siebel Business Applications configured for right-to-left (RTL) display. This user property allows you to make text fields display as data types that are always left to right, for example, DTYPE_ID, DTYPE_PHONE, and so on.
Value |
The value for the DisplayType user property must be one of the following:
- DTYPE_CURRENCY
- DTYPE_DATE
- DTYPE_ID
- DTYPE_INTEGER
- DTYPE_NUMBER
- DTYPE_PHONE
|
Usage |
Displaying data from right to left for some fields does not make sense. For example, a service request number must always display from left to right. Because the Type property for the SR Number field is set to DTYPE_TEXT, this field has a DisplayType user property set to DTYPE_ID to make sure the service request number displays left to right. NOTE: The DisplayType user property is applicable only for Siebel Business Applications with an RTL configuration.
