I’ve been doing some more dynamic data and trying to work with the meta data for a table to change the display.
Previously I’ve mentioned ordering columns and although not explicitly mentioned it the hiding of columns you don’t won’t by applying the [ScaffoldColumn(true)] attribute where you set true so DD generates a column and false if you don’t want it displayed.
The attributes that I can find in relation to display of the data are:
| Attribute Name | Description |
| Scaffold Column | Indicates if column should be displayed or not |
| DisplayName | Name to be displayed in the header of the column for the property |
| DefaultValue | Default value to use when inserting new data |
| Description | Text to show in a tooltip when mouse hovers over the field |
| DataType | Used to specifies the name of a type to associate with a data field to provide additional functional around that field e.g EmailAddress |
| UIHint | Used to specify the FieldTemplate to use when rendering the column. |
| DisplayColumn | Specifies the column to display for filters or foreign keys. Default is to use first string column that is found |
Over the next few posts I’ll being going into these attributes to show the source code and the results.
