| Badge Selection (`selection_badge`) | ||

| Badges Selection (``badges_selection``) |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
My 2 cents: badge_selection has a better English tune to it. Also it saves a whole character 😄

I just realized that badges_many2one follows this one and that you might to be consistent with its naming 😅

…ction This change restructures the existing selection_badge widget by splitting it into two specialized versions. By using a shared base component, we've separated the core rendering logic from the data-fetching logic. The new BaseBadgeField now handles the visual display, while two specific widgets handle the different data types. New widgets: badges_many2one for relational fields. It handles searching and reading records from the database while supporting domain filters and related icons. The second, badges_selection, is for standard selection fields and includes support for icon mapping and filtering options. We've also introduced a new behavior, when the number of options exceeds a defined badgeLimit, the widget automatically switches to a searchable dropdown menu (SelectMenu). Additionally, we optimized background data requests and standardized all icons to a consistent small size. This update cleans up the codebase by removing several redundant or outdated widgets that are no longer necessary under this new architecture. All relevant tests have been updated to ensure the new split logic works correctly across different use cases.

Introduce a computed `icon` field on `hr.work.location` to provide icon classes based on the `location_type`. This enables the `BadgesMany2oneField` widget to display representative icons for each location choice using the field name provided with relatedIconField option.

… add max badges option ### **This PR addresses:** Merging the `selection_badge_icons` widget from `mail` into the standard `selection_badge` widget in `web`. This unifies the badge logic across the framework and introduces a responsive fallback for fields with many options. ### **Key Improvements:** * **Integrated Icon Support:** The `selection_badge` widget now supports icons via `related_icon_field` for many2one fields and `icon_mapping` for selection fields. * **Optimized RPC:** When icons are requested, the widget now uses `search_read` instead of `name_search`. This allows fetching both the display name and the icon in a **single RPC request**. * **Smart Dropdown Fallback:** A new `max_badge` option allows the widget to automatically switch to a `SelectMenu` dropdown if the number of options exceeds the limit, preventing UI clutter. * **Offline Resilience:** Added handling for `ConnectionLostError` to ensure the widget displays the current record data even when the server is unreachable. * **Cleanup:** The legacy `selection_badge_icons` widget has been removed from the `mail` module. ### **New Option:** * **max_badge:** A threshold number to automatically switch from badges to a dropdown menu. **Task-5270283** **Related Enterprise PR:** odoo/enterprise#104338 closes #243855 Related: odoo/documentation#16477 Signed-off-by: Aaron Bohy (aab) <aab@odoo.com>
