Usage

Even if this module does not provide views to display some model’s Attributes, it provides however a Technical menu in Settings > Technical > Database Structure > Attributes to create new Attributes.

An Attribute is related to both an Attribute Group and an Attribute Set :

• The Attribute Set is related to the “model’s category”, i.e. all the model’s instances which will display the same Attributes.

• The Attribute Group is related to the “attribute’s category”. All the attributes from the same Attribute Set and Attribute Group will be displayed under the same field’s Group in the model’s view.

  🔎 In order to create a custom Attribute many2one or many2many related to other Odoo model, you need to activate the Technical Setting “Advanced Attribute Set settings” (group_advanced_attribute_set).

If you want to create a module displaying some specific model’s Attributes :

1. Your model must _inherit the mixin "attribute.set.owner.mixin"

2. You need to add a placeholder <separator name="attributes_placeholder" /> at the desired location in the model’s form view.

3. Finally, add a context {"include_native_attribute": True} on the action leading to this form view if the model’s view needs to display attributes related to native fields together with the other “custom” attributes.
