    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-873?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12772371#comment-12772371 ] 

claudio perrotta commented on FORGE-873:
----------------------------------------

To change the string "org.forgetest.model.Entity at 5f9ba38e" i change in xhtml files (create, view, search)  this line

<f:selectItems value="#{EntityBean.all}"/>

in 
<f:selectItems value="#{EntityBean.all}" var="entity" itemValue="#{entity}" itemLabel="#{entity.id}"/>
 
where "#{entity} is the private attribute in the bean relative to the entity class and #{entity.id} is the label that you want to show in dropdown menu

i hope it helps

> For a table with a foreign key the UI permits to select the possible values, but this values are listed in a dropdown menu in a form like "org.forgetest.model.Entity at 5f9ba38e" (would be preferable that the string present be relative to the PK referenced)
> Anyway, after setting this field and submitting the form, the data are inserted in the table correctly but when i want to modify the record, the UI doesn't show the setted value for the foreign key and i must set it again before saving.
