The standard user picker field does not support this level of customization.
What do you mean with "how to display all the users using user picker field"? What is "all users"? A picker field is made to select certain users.
here all users means users in appian.
so I need to create a custom picker with users coming from database, Is this right?
Why database? Users are not stored in the DB.
A user picker lets you select from all users by default. But it defaults to display first and last name.
Can you explain your use case a bit? I do not understand what you try to achieve.
so my exact requirement is to display user list in user picker in format of lastname + firstname in alphabetical order. there is any way other than user picker?
I would challenge the requirement and try to stay with the default user picker component. But you can implement your own picker using the custom picker component.
I agree with Stefan, the Custom Picker Component is very customizable, we use it in a number of locations for different requirements. It is used for our primary shared user picker also to provide extra details and formatting, etc. We almost never implement a!pickerFieldUsers().
I've built this using a Custom Picker field before, out of bare necessity. There are many pros and cons. Just off the top of my head...
