Any ideas from skill?

  • Fred,

    The callbacks for all form fields are simply a SKILL expression that is evaluated whenever the form value changes (most of them when the focus moves away from that field). The idea is that the function you call then can react to the change the user has made to the field value, and either check the value they've specified (and do something with that) or compute the value of another field based on the current value of the field.

    So it would get called whenever you picked a different value for the layer-purpose in this field.

    I'm not sure it would be very useful to offer a complete list of layer-purposes in the choices, and then have the callback check to see if it's valid; it would probably be better just to provide the list of valid layer purposes as choices and then there's no need to check that in a callback. The use model would be a bit strange otherwise.

    Regards,

    Andrew
