Picker
The picker is a centered, searchable overlay used to choose rows, targets, columns, scripts, validation rules, and other objects. It fuzzy-matches your query against entry fields and shows a preview pane for the selected entry.
Opening
Section titled “Opening”| Binding | Scope |
|---|---|
Space f |
Profile-wide picker |
Space p |
Picker scoped to the current table |
Pages such as the admin panel, add-logic, and validation editors open their own
pickers with Space f or their page controls.
Layout
Section titled “Layout”The picker shows a query input, scope chips for the active commands, a result
list, and a preview pane. Up/Down move the selection, Tab completes the
current command, Enter selects, and Esc closes.
Query commands
Section titled “Query commands”The form picker understands a small query language:
| Command | Meaning |
|---|---|
%target <column> |
Restrict to rows that can fill the active reference field |
%table <name> |
Restrict results to one table |
%column <name> (alias %col) |
Filter by a column value |
%<column> <value> |
Short form of the above for a specific column |
%data <text> |
Free-text search across row data |
%order_by <column> <asc|desc> |
Override result ordering |
The admin-object picker uses %profile, %table, %dependency, %column,
and %script; the logic-reference picker uses %table, %column, and
%kind. Commands can be combined, and only the last %order_by/%table wins.
