Okay...this is a super-picky wishlist item, so don't sweat it.

The default page titles and such for a table are generated as "List of Widgets", where "widgets" is a table name. That works great for table names that are plural.

However, the style guidelines I follow indicate table names that are singular. That is, you would have the "widget" table instead of a table of "widgets". My default titles and such end up being "List of Employee" and such.

Soo....it would be great if there was a project-level setting that controlled the generated titles, prompts, headers, etc. It could either be a checkbox for plural/singular table names, or perhaps more generally, it could be a format string where you could enter something like "List of %s" or "%s List" or "Admire Our Tremendous %s Collection", where %s is replaced with the table name.


I know I'm just being lazy/fussy, but I thought I'd throw it out there. I assure you, I'll stay a faithful customer with or without this feature request.

Done :-D

Edit the following file: C:\Program Files\CodeChargeStudio\Components\Translations\Site\English.xml

Find the lines that contain GridFormPrefix and GridFormPostfix, then change them as follows:
<Msg name="GridFormPrefix" caption="Grid Form Prefix" value=""/>
<Msg name="GridFormPostfix" caption="Grid Form Postfix" value="List"/>

You can even create several variants of the above to use them in different projects, like English_singular.xml and English_plural.xml
