Community Days - Meeting 2008

Objectives:
Preparing the next stable version of OpenERP.
Focusing on the simplification and ergonomics of the system: improving the tool and the quality of the software (It means improving existing tool and not working on new modules)
Improving communication and development processes between the community and partners.

Targets :
Developers: Who will develop and follow the guidance fixed by the work group on particular the subjects.
Consultants / Professionals: who will bring their reflections in terms of professional competence. We would like to benefit, on priority basis, from the presence of Accountants (accounting experts) who will help us improve the competence of the software in that field.
The software users (confirmed and non-confirmed): who can provide us with feedback on their experiences and contribute towards the global reflection on improving the software.
Our partners: who will bring their expertise in the integration of the software in different companies.
General users/contributors: We will also focus on improving works between the 3 actors: edtior/partner/community: better workflow to process patch, bugs and feature requests.

Reporting: RML - define a height for each row

I would like to speak about a very small patch than I committed on trunk. This patch helps to define the row's height for each column dynamically in the reporting system.

Before, If you want to define an height you have to specify a value in the rowHeights parameter of a blockTable.

<blockTable rowHeights="10,10">
<tr>
<td>Firstname</td>
<td>Lastname</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Stephane</td>
<td>Wirtel</td>
</tr>
</blockTable>

So as you can see, the problem comes from the rowHeights parameter where you have to specify the height of each row.

Now with this patch you can define a height for each row.

<blockTable rowHeights="10">
<tr>
<td>Firstname</td>
<td>Lastname</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Stephane</td>
<td>Wirtel</td>
</tr>
</blockTable>
