2012-11-23 11:44 <ivangarcia> hello, I realized that Tryton 2.6 still doesn't have Fields.Email type
2012-11-23 11:44 <ivangarcia> any plans to add that validation or parameter in the future versions?
2012-11-23 11:47 <cedk> ivangarcia: correct email validation is quite complicate
2012-11-23 12:00 <rmu> all e-mail clients i know of (thunderbird, mutt, gmail) let you type essentially free-form text in the recipient-fields, no verification whatsoever before sending the email IIRC
2012-11-23 12:06 <cedk> rmu: yes and not everybody conforms to the RFC
2012-11-23 12:07 <cedk> I think the good way is to implement the domain validation on non-relational field
2012-11-23 12:09 <rmu> i have a question regarding reports... i have two types of paper: the usual white A4, and pre-prints with the company logo
2012-11-23 12:09 <rmu> some reports should be print on the paper with company logo, some other on plain paper, and include the company-logo in the printout
2012-11-23 12:09 <rmu> some reports also are sent per email as PDF, and also have to include the logo
2012-11-23 12:10 <rmu> for obvious reasons, i don't want to duplicate all reports into a non-logo and a logo-version
2012-11-23 12:11 <rmu> are there any ideas how one could deal with this situation?
2012-11-23 12:12 <cedk> rmu: why not duplicate, it is the purpose of template: showing similar content in different layout
2012-11-23 12:16 <rmu> i feared that duplicating is the only non-smelly option... but duplication sucks from maintainance POV. and i would need to further amend the template mechanism and dig again into ODF spec
2012-11-23 12:17 <rmu> would it be possible to add a plugin to the client that would communicate a boolean flag in the call to retrieve a report?
2012-11-23 12:20 <rmu> my preferred solution would be to use "pdftk background" to add the pdf-template of the company logo... including proper company logo directly in open office has "issues".
2012-11-23 12:34 <cedk> rmu: you can use a wizard to launch the report and setup a context, I think
2012-11-23 13:56 <udono> rmu: Hi, you can put information in frames and unselect the frame property for printing.
2012-11-23 15:19 <rmu> udono: don't understand
2012-11-23 15:19 <rmu> i'm generating PDFs on the serverside
2012-11-23 15:23 <rmu> my idea is: add a field to ir.action.report to identify which reports should be treated with pdftk, and patch the client to show those reports two times. which is sent to the client will be controlled via context.
2012-11-23 15:27 <udono> rmu: you can use a frame and include the logo. Uncheck the frame attribute for printing in soffice.
2012-11-23 15:27 <udono> rmu: then the logo will be shown in the pdf, but not printed
2012-11-23 15:40 <sisalp> cedk: what will bring workflow on stock move ?
2012-11-23 15:41 <sisalp> czdk: anything to read for learning ?
2012-11-23 15:44 <cedk> sisalp: simpler, faster and more maintainable code
2012-11-23 16:11 <sisalp> cedk: thank you
2012-11-23 16:24 <rmu> udono: IIRC that does not work for header/footer, and i still have the problem that sometimes i also want to print the logo...
2012-11-23 16:26 <rmu> udono: delivery-note that is sent to customer is printed on company-paper, the copy for the records is printed on plain paper. more or less the same happens with customer-invoices
