Description

Like authors in theme "In ansvIs it possible to view all entries for an item (NOT all items for each entry)" (http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=51448), I need to have some functionality - a more than one list view of table with different set of fields and his representations

I think that the ability to add new "list views" and manage them - will be solution of our troubles. It's my first feature request.

To solve second suggestion, list views may be have grouping with some summary feature (count, summ, average, min etc - may be in syntax like in MDL-8386, may be in functional form like ##sum(MyFieldName)## ). It's second request. It's in addition make to need have header and footer templates for each group level.

In list view i need an row index as an additional field to add it to list view. (third)
And good, if there are will be calculated fields... with ability to group by them (fourth)

By the way, card view now is the same to list view, but with the page size is equal 1 - it may be replaced by one of this my custom list views... If in list view will be default page-size settings (fifths request).

Summary features/ list view: Calculations within database function:

I have made some clumsy attempts to build Likert Scale questionnaires on database, exporting results (input by users) to Excel for ease of calculation.

This works after a fashion, but I would also like to see the functionality (as mentioned by Nenashev) to return a result of database calculation either back to the user (as in the case for personality analysis tools), or to the database administrator (as for example with class evaluations, or questionnaires etc).
