new AppGiniField("last_name")
.placeholder("Last Name");
Works fine for a textbox but what about a lookup field?

As mentioned in the docs (
https://appgini.bizzworxx.de/products/j ... ceholders/ ) this function applies to <input /> fields, only.

Anyway, I consider adding this feature on lookups in a future version. Unfortunately I have seen many users struggling with placeholder-option for select2 dropdowns due to several problems. There seems to be a bug in that lib. Finding a hooks-only solution will be even harder because I cannot inject code while to control gets written - only after it has been rendered. So I cannot promise if this will work at all, sorry.
For now I recommend using the helptext (description field in AppGini).
