Question

Unexpected label name change

1

I have an attribute with the name BTW_Code. But with a dataview the label that is automatically generated becomes BT w Code. Has anyone else seen this behaviour?

Yes, when generating forms, the modeler assumes your attribute names are in CamelCase. So CamelCase is converted to 'Camel case', BTWCode is converted to 'B t w code', and BtwCode would be converted to 'Btw code'.

Of course, nothing prevents you to change the name afterwards, its just a generated heuristic name. The modeler has no built in support for special abbreviations introduced by the Dutch law.
