It looks like the formatter assigned to a label is lost, if the table is repainted (e.g. a row is added).
The label has a valueSource (ContainerValueSource) and a formatter to format the BigDecimal value as a formatted currency string (e.g. 8 becomes “8.00 €”)
As soon as an item is added to the underlying CollectionPropertyContainer the format is lost and only the number (e.g. 8) is displayed.
Hello,
could you clarify how do you set a formatter? Do you use the Label in the generated column?
Yes, exactly. It is a generated column creating a label with a formatter and also a value source:
table.addGeneratedColumn(columnId) { invoiceEntry ->
val label: Label<BigDecimal> = uiComponents.create(Label.NAME)
....
val valueSource: ContainerValueSource<InvoiceEntry, BigDecimal> =
ContainerValueSource(table.getInstanceContainer(invoiceEntry), columnId)
label.valueSource = valueSource
label.setFormatter { formatInvoiceEntry(invoiceEntry) }
label
}
Try to change order of setting valueSource and formatter:
label.setFormatter { formatInvoiceEntry(invoiceEntry) }
label.valueSource = valueSource
Probably, formatter isn’t invoked because value was set before.
