Name Column Derive from Display Atttribute #45

Closed maharatha closed 8 years ago

maharatha commented 8 years ago

The Name column should fill up the data that's being used in the Display attribute of the Enum. Currrently it's ignoring it.

Also I find some strange issue of spaces automatically appearing in the name

There's already discussion of adding the display attribute data as a new column, so this is a duplicate of #33

I'd be interested to know why you need access to this for your particular usage, so please do comment on #33 with some more info.

That's intentional, it's splitting enum value names no CamelCase to make it look nicer. You can turn it off if you like by setting the SplitWords property.
