Hi,

Try to do like following:

in py file:

def onchange_child_attending_school(self, cr, uid, ids, child_attending_school=False, context=None):
        if child_attending_school:
            return {'value': {'boolean': True}}     
        else:
            return {'value': {'boolean': False}}

in xml file:

<field name="child_attending_school" on_change="onchange_child_attending_school(child_attending_school)/> 
<group string="Education" colspan="4" col="6" attrs="{'invisible':[('boolean', '=', False)]}"> 
      <field name="education_level"/> 
     <field name="class"/> 
     <field name="name_of_school"/>
     <field name="residence"/> 
     <field name="school_address"/>
     <field name="name_of_class_teacher"/> 
     <field name="school_telephone"/> 
</group>

i did try that ,,, but it didn't work... :( <field name="child_attending_school"/>
<group string="Education" colspan="4" col="6" attrs="{'invisible':[('child_attending_school', '=', False)]}"> <field name="education_level"/> <field name="class"/> <field name="name_of_school"/> <field name="residence"/> <field name="school_address"/> <field name="name_of_class_teacher"/> <field name="school_telephone"/> </group>

Do you want to hide the group on onchange of child_attending_school?

no i want to hide the group when the child is not attending school ..

I did it , time ago , with the attrs ... but now i forgot how i did it last time , and its really annoying :D

i have edited my answer. Add one boolean field and try that one.

Author

AttributeError: 'sna.orphan' object has no attribute 'onchange_child_attending_school'

Have you restarted the server?

Author

it give me that error on the change event of 'onchange_child_attending_school', so i think restart services wont make a difference

You should restart the server for affecting changes of py file and need to update that module to affect changes of xml file.

Hi nehal, how can i do this for single field.. my scenario is,, when a admin confirm(check box is checked),, marks field has to disable/could not be edited.
