Group fields in edition/creation view?

[eddyLazar]

Is there a way to group fields in view or how could it be implemented?

[FelixMalfait]

Same here, I have about 100 fields and I would be really keen to know how to group them into tabs?
Maybe there's a way to tweak something with cssClasses?
Thanks a lot

I need this for the App I'm working on. Don't really like the tabs, but will probably try to implement this by allowing fields have 'parent' nodes somehow. Basically I want it to look like the JSON output in a way (maybe without all the table cruft) Can probably get it up and running with a custom directive.

I came up with a solution to add tabs. It works great but it's a very very ugly tweak so I'm not going to post it here.
If interested please let me know.

I'm interested)
Let's make it less ugly

Well I would have warned you ;)

Basically:

1. I'm adding a css class to each field to identify which tab it belongs to (tasks.config.js)
2. I define a function to show/hide fields for that have given classes (tools.js)
3. I'm adding a fake field which inserts the tabs (tasks.config.js)
4. On load, every fields are loaded by ng-admin, the directive allows to hide the field that don't belong to the current tab (taskTabs.html, initTabs.js)
   I never do JS so I'm sure we can work to make something better :)

Take a look at #657 for an alternative approach.

Adding support for other layouts isn't in the scope of ng-admin for the near future. If you have too many fields on a single screen, your admin is probably not usable anyway ;)

@FelixMalfait Would you mind reposting your gist please ? Link seems broken. Thanks

Hello. I just made a gist showing how to add tabsets to ng-admin. A screenshot of the tabs is here.
