Mixing datatypes in column of table object

Ignition

Hi. Anyone knows if it’s possible to have different datatypes in one column of the table object. I’m using the table today to list up several tags/parameters in the plc and made the column editable. With some scripting i’m sending the values back to the plc. But what would be really nice if I could have float, int or bool values in different rows of the columns, based on the respective tag type in the plc. I could of course make a new column, but I think the other option is much nicer. :thumb_right:

Tnx for all help!

Tables are driven by Datasets, and Datasets are modeled after the return format of SQL queries, which are quite strictly column driven, meaning, only one datatype per column.

You could model the values as strings, with proper formatting it should be seamless to the user.
