"view" button - form should also show module name and view id

[Ferdinand]

clicking on the "view #" button opens the html source code

IMHO it would be helpful to display module name and view id and allow to open / edit the view definition

Dear Ferdinand,

How can I reproduce this problem ?
I am not able to fine "view #" button any where ?

Thanks,
Synconics Technologies.

The "View#" button is a debugging feature (in fact, it should only be enabled in debug mode). The view editor is a separate feature, which I believe is not done (therefore not merged) yet.

The "View#" button is not intended as a view editor, it's only indended as a printing of the data received by the client to troubleshoot incorrect rendering of the view. The module name therefore is not helpful (the number displayed after "View#" is already the view id — in-database that is)

I doubt that the number is "unique" for all OpenERP installations
hence it is not suitable for debugging

what we need is the view "name" (XML-ID) like
record id="view_partner_bank_form_inherit" inlcluding the module name

I did not claim it was.

It's perfectly suitable for its intended purpose of debugging view rendering.
