sap.ui.table.Column Regards Only Last Control and Expression Binding Doesn't Work - sapui5

Question

I have a column in a sap.ui.table.Table. In this column, I want to display my template control depending on the value. If I have a typeof DateTime, I want to use the DatePicker, typeof DateTime a DateTimePicker, and so on.
Now I want to differ it in my XMLView / Fragment but it only checks my last control (DateTimePicker):
<table:template>
<Input id="masterDataValueInput"
value="{thingDetail>value}"
placeholder="{path:'thingDetail>type', formatter:'.formatter.placeHolderFormatter'}"
visible="{= ! ${path: 'thingDetail>properties'} && ${path: 'thingDetail>type', formatter: '.formatter.inputVisibility'}}"
enabled="{appView>/isCurrentTenant}"
type="{path:'thingDetail>type', formatter:'.formatter.inputTypeFormatter'}"
/>
<DatePicker id="masterDataValueDate"
value="{thingDetail>value}"
displayFormat="short"
visible="{= ! ${path: 'thingDetail>properties'} && ${path: 'thingDetail>type', formatter: '.formatter.dateVisibility'}}"
enabled="{appView>/isCurrentTenant}"
change="handleChange"
/>
<DateTimePicker id="masterDataValueDateTime"
value="{thingDetail>value}"
displayFormat="short"
visible="{= ! ${path: 'thingDetail>properties'} && ${path: 'thingDetail>type', formatter: '.formatter.datetimeVisibility'}}"
enabled="{appView>/isCurrentTenant}"
change="handleChange"
/>
</table:template>
So the <Input> and the <DatePicker> controls are never displayed..
The methods in my formatter are never called either.

The reason why only the last control (DateTimePicker) is taken into account is because the template aggregation of sap.ui.table.Column awaits only a single control (0..1).
In order to make use of all three controls, you'll have to wrap them together in another container / layout control such as HorizontalLayout:
<table:template>
<layout:HorizontalLayout>
<!-- your controls -->
</layout:HorizontalLayout>
<table:template>
About the expression binding..
Try with parts:
visible="{= !${thingDetail>properties} && ${parts: [{path: 'thingDetail>type'}], formatter: '.formatter.inputVisibility'}}"
If that didn't call the formatter, toss that expression binding (as it's become hard to read anyway) and go for the usual property binding with the appropriate formatter:
visible="{
parts: [
'thingDetail>properties',
'thingDetail>type'
],
formatter: '.formatter.myFormatter'
}"
