Meaningful Field Names

Hi Vladimir,
Is there a way to display alternate field names in the Edit Data Source window? In the table called COLUMNS of INFORMATION_SCHEMA database of MYSQL, we put the meaningful description in the COLUMN_COMMENT field. For example, the field name is memc_printdate, we put the more meaningful description 'Membership Card Print Date' in the COLUMN_COMMENT field.
Is it possible to display this in the Edit Data Source Window instead of the actual field name?
Regards,

Hello,

Unfortunately, currently this functionality is not available. We have added its implementation in our to-do list.

Thank you.

Hi Vladimir,
Any timetable for this? Will it be within the next 2 months or 3 months...?
Looking forward to this.
Thanks for considering it.
