How to use custom column inside ViewAction

i created a custom column which im using in my table component. https://filamentphp.com/docs/2.x/tables/columns/custom#view-column In the docs, i understood that i can also use it inside a view action:

ViewAction::make()
    ->recordTitle(__('game'))
    ->label('')
    ->color('primary')
    ->tooltip(__('See game details'))
    ->modalHeading(__('See game'))
    ->mountUsing(function (\Filament\Forms\ComponentContainer $form, Game $record) {
        $record->load('createdBy');
        $record->load('winner');

        $form->fill($record->toArray());
    })
    ->form([
        Grid::make(4)
            ->schema([
                ViewColumn::make('result')
                    ->view('tables.columns.game-result-column')
                    ->translateLabel()
                ,
...

ViewAction::make()
    ->recordTitle(__('game'))
    ->label('')
    ->color('primary')
    ->tooltip(__('See game details'))
    ->modalHeading(__('See game'))
    ->mountUsing(function (\Filament\Forms\ComponentContainer $form, Game $record) {
        $record->load('createdBy');
        $record->load('winner');

        $form->fill($record->toArray());
    })
    ->form([
        Grid::make(4)
            ->schema([
                ViewColumn::make('result')
                    ->view('tables.columns.game-result-column')
                    ->translateLabel()
                ,
...

but im getting:

Filament\Forms\ComponentContainer::Filament\Forms\Concerns\{closure}(): Argument #1 ($component) must be of type Filament\Forms\Components\Component, Filament\Tables\Columns\ViewColumn given

in the line where i fill the form: $form->fill($record->toArray());

Filament\Forms\ComponentContainer::Filament\Forms\Concerns\{closure}(): Argument #1 ($component) must be of type Filament\Forms\Components\Component, Filament\Tables\Columns\ViewColumn given

in the line where i fill the form: $form->fill($record->toArray());

what should i do?

@ericmp columns are not form fields they are separate objects

ericmpOP•2y ago

thanks yeah hmm. so is there any way to put like a custom component inside a view modal?

Dan Harrin•2y ago

yes, a form component View::make() or ViewField::make() depending if you want to store state or not or if this is the only thing in the entire action form, you can use modalContent() instead to render a view instead of a form
