The form, tree/list, and search views are the most frequently used view types. But there are a few more view types available to design our user interfaces.
We're already familiar with the three basic views: form, tree , and search. In Chapter 11, Kanban Views and Client-Side QWeb, we discuss in detail the kanban views, where we visualize the record as item cards, and even organize them in columns, to have Kanban boards.
Next, we have additional view types:
- activity to show an organized summary of the scheduled activities
- calendar to present data in a calendar format, based on selected date fields
- diagram to present relations between records, currently not used in Odoo
These two view type are used to show aggregated data:
- graph for chart presentation
- pivot for interactive pivot tables
