Column name (Query), display icon?

hpl123

Hi all,
In the query options under "Column name" there is an option to show "Label only", "Icon only", "Icon and label", "None". Hos does this work? how do i specify an icon to be used in the column name area?
Thanks

Edit a BO. Edit an attribute. Click Presentation. Click icon Rules

Thanks Rod, i have tried that and that works for the icon on the row of the query, all good. What i don´t understand is, there are 2 options (see screenshot below) to use an icon in the query attribute options. Then one above is the first, the second one, if that is configured also from the icon rules, how does that work? (and where is the icon displayed, in the column header?)

Thanks

After a tip from kklosson I now know this isn´t a bug afterall. The icon in column header works, I had just missed to assign the actual icon to the attribute and therefore it wasn´t displaying in queries. To configure an icon for an attribute, open the attribute in the configuration tool and under presentation you have "Icon:" just below label and if you set an icon there and activate the column header icon options, the icon is displayed in the column header.

Just a note to support, Kklosson said this only worked sometimes, could you have a look at this functionality to see if there are any bugs there? Kklosson, could you possible explain a bit more on when you have experienced this bug? Thanks

I found I could not display an icon in the query header row when I had the attribute icon presentation set to "Icon is represented by a CSS class name" to "fa fa-star".

The only way I could display this star icon was to actually use

<i class='fa fa-star'></i>

As the label for the column.
