DisplayUsing() not working with integers

Hi,

This stopped working after i changed the datatype to integer in my database. Why is that?

BelongsTo::make('Radio', 'gearratio', 'App\Nova\Gearratio')
    ->displayUsing(function ($name) {
        return 'i: '.$name;
    }),

Getting this error:

Object of class App\Nova\Gearratio could not be converted to string

Don't know Nova specifically BUT you might want to implement the following method in the Gearratio

public function __toString()

Or simply tell it what to actually show

BelongsTo::make('Radio', 'gearratio', 'App\Nova\Gearratio')
    ->displayUsing(function ($name) {
        return 'i: '.$name->my_column;
    }),
