Using transient attributes to improve the usability of Query Panel
A simple demo application that uses transient attributes to format(re-arrange) fields displayed in model driven query component is attached here
In this sample application, query panel displays an 'Employment Date' field (which is a transient attribute) and the value keyed in for this field is mapped to a bind variable. This bind variable can be used by the Criteria Items to form the required 'where clause', based on the use case requirement. Please note that, 'display property' of Criteria Item can be controlled from the UI Hints tab (UI Hints tab -> Rendered Mode-> All/Basic/Advance/Never). In the attached sample application, first two criteria items are not displayed to the user, but the actual query is getting generated basen on these two items only.
