Configuration for QField's new attribute form features (version 3.3)

[lorenzomorning]

Note: I am using QGIS 3.28.15 (on a Windows computer) and QField 3.3.6 (on a Windows based Tablet).

I am wondering how/where to enable the (pretty cool) following new features of the new release 3.3:

• The feature form’s value relation widget gained grouping capabilities to enhance ordering of items
• The feature form’s value map widget gained a toggle buttons interface for faster data entry and an item filtering for large combobox lists
  

From my understanding of QField such features like the layout/settings of the attribute form are configured in the QGIS project itself. However in my current QGIS version 3.28 I cannot figure out where to enable in example the toggle buttons for the value map widget.

Therefore, my questions: Are these new settings configured in QGIS? What version of QGIS would I need for the configuration?

@lorenzomorning , it's a layer-wide setting, you'll find it in the QField panel (provided you installed the QFieldSync plugin):

Hi @SeqLaz,
I now tried both:

1. Installing it from the plugins repository (4.9.1) obviously does not add any new layer control sections (see image above)
2. Installing the zipped version 4.10.0 results in a kind of overlay for the QField layer settings (see image below, or post from 9th July). It now adds the option for controlling the toggle buttons of a value map, but unfortunately it is not nicely usable due the overlay...

Hi @SeqLaz @nirvn,
you are probably super buisy and I do not need a direct solution for my problem described above. But it is planned to soon integrate the current QFieldSync updates (e.g. toggle button control) into the version available within the QGIS Plugin Manager? :)

Hi @lorenzomorning,

Could be possible from your side to upgrade the QGIS version to the latest version?

Release of qfieldsync 4.10 has been delayed due to technical problems with the upload to the plugin registry, but has finally made it today. v4.10.1 is now available from the QGIS plugin repository and comes with this feature.

@m-kuhn , @nirvn , @SeqLaz thank you all for the update and the great and steady improvements of QField. It is so valuable for us working with this software, and at the same time it's a lot of fun :)
