| 213 | | == Adding new custom field types == |
| 214 | | |
| 215 | | It is useful to have fields that only accept numbers, fields that only accept an entry when the ticket is created and perhaps a field that accumulates the numbers you enter? This can be achieved with a patch to the appropriate .cs files and the addition of a little javascript. The changes can be found in the [http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/attachment/wiki/TimeTracking/CustomFieldsRev2827.patch patch file] attached. |

| 217 | | '''Description of new types:''' |
| 218 | | |
| 219 | | ''integer'' |
| 220 | | |
| 221 | | Allows only integer values such as "12" and "-98329847" to be entered into the custom field. |
| 222 | | |
| 223 | | ''cumulative_integer'' |
| 224 | | |
| 225 | | Like integer but only allows the user to enter a value that is added to the current value. Useful for accumulating work done on a ticket or dollars spent. |
| 226 | | |
| 227 | | ''set_once_integer'' |
| 228 | | |
| 229 | | Like integer but only allows the user to set a value when the ticket is created. From then on the value is fixed. |
| 230 | | |
| 231 | | Syntax of ini file: |
| 232 | | |
| 233 | | <name> = <type> |
| 234 | | |
| 235 | | Example: |
| 236 | | |
| 237 | | {{{ |
| 238 | | [ticket-custom] |
| 239 | | mycustominteger = integer |
| 240 | | mycustominteger_cumulative = cumulative_integer |
| 241 | | mycustominteger_setonce = set_once_integer |
| 242 | | }}} |
