Description

Goal:
Suppress/disable the link in the first column of a table (CollectionProperty) for marked DomainObjects.

Proposal:

• Add a new field to the @DomainObjectLayout like openable/viewable.
• Special handling of title columns in CollectionContentsAsAjaxTablePanel / ObjectAdapterTitleColumn / EntityIconAndTitlePanel

Background:

I have a complex entity which is displayed in tables in different places.
In one place I want to show a subset of properties only. For this
projection I made a special in-memory object, which wraps the complex
entity and has getters for the subset of properties only. How can I mark
this inmemory object to be not openable, or with other words how do i suppress/disable the link in the first column.

Dan/Martins "QuickFix" was:

The column is added at

https://github.com/apache/isis/blob/master/component/viewer/wicket/ui/src/main/java/org/apache/isis/viewer/wicket/ui/components/collectioncontents/ajaxtable/CollectionContentsAsAjaxTablePanel.java#L96
and I see no way how to suppress the addition in current master branch.

The column is marked with "title-column" CSS class so it is easy to hide
with: visibility:hidden;, but I'm not sure how easy is to detect on which
page to apply this CSS rule.
If you use 1.8.0-SNAPSHOT then maybe you can combine it with the new
#cssClass() special method that may be used to set a custom CSS class. See

+1 to Martin's answer, there is no configuration setting but it is possible
to hack it using Javascript and CSS and the new #cssClass in 1.8.0-SNAPSHOT.

For example, the todo app uses #cssClass() so that completed todo items are
shown in a table with a strikethrough. This comes from the "done" CSS
class:

public String cssClass()

{ return !isComplete() ? "todo" : "done"; }

In webapp/css/application.css, if we add:

tr.done a

{ pointer-events: none; cursor: default; }

and in webapp/scripts/application.js, if we add:

$(document).ready(function() {
$('tr.done a').click(function()

{ return false; }

);
});

then the icon for each completed item cannot be clicked.
