flask-admin: Render inline_models as list view?

Question

I have a Motion model which has many Votes. I display the votes as an inline_model in flask-admin. Is it possible to render the votes as a table like in the list_view template? Instead of like this:

Using using rules from flask-admin you can change the way either the create form or the edit form looks.

class View(sqla.ModelView):
    form_create_rules = {
        #for instance
        attribute1,
        rules.Header('A header'),
        attribute2
    }

If you want more customization you can also use formatters

class View(sqla.ModelView):
    form_create_rules = {
        #for instance
        attribute1,
        rules.Header('A header'),
        attribute2
    }

def _a_column_formatter(view, context, model, name):
    #returns the content of a row in h3 html tags
    return Markup('<h3>{}</h3>'.format(model.attribute))

column_formatters = {
    'ticket_name': _a_column_formatter
}
