Displaying boolean values as 'yes/no'.
« on: May 11, 2007, 09:36:59 am »
Does anyone know of a way that I can display the boolean value for 'isDerived' as a 'yes/no' for an attribute in an RTF export doc? I'd rather not see a '0/1' value.

I'd rather see true / false instead.

In a template, ALL the above rendering should be available.  The whole point should be flexibility for the user...

I agree with Paolo. It needs to make sense to the user. [And hopefully to be unambiguously translatable to the platform.]
