Hi,

Could you clarify what are you going to achieve, please? It is easier to get data from the underlying datasource rather than from UI elements.

hello andrey,

i have created lookupfields in generated column as given below

 public Component generateCell(TmpFormulaComponents entity) {
          lkp=componentsFactory.createComponent(LookupField.class);
            lkp.setOptionsList(arr1);
            lkp.setValue(arr1.get(0));
            lkp.setWidth("100%");
         return lkp;
       }
            });

It looks similar to this fig

My question is , how to get the selected options of each lookupfield ?
eg : lookupfield no 1 - english
lookupfield no 2 - russia
lookupfield no 3 - english
lookupfield no 4 - english
and so on

Hi,

Thanks for the clarification. I understand that, but what exactly you need to do? Do you want to export these values to CSV or Excel? Do you want to build a report or pass these values somewhere?

In our sample application this column is not bound to an entity, but in a real project it would be easier to define a “Language” attribute for an entity and get all values by querying entities list rather than getting it from UI Table.

Hi,

I’ve created a quick and dirty project that writes all values to the log file. Is it what you’re going to achieve? See code attached.
