Form buttons

AE202502048334

Hi all, I'm trying to create a from with user defined buttons.
I'm trying the following code but can't get it to work:

main = hiCreateFornLayout('main_layout ?items () )

form = hiCreateLayoutForm(

             'myForm

             'myTitle

             ?buttonLayout '(Empty (btn1 btn1_CB()) (btn2 btn2_CB()) (Close hiFormClose()))

)

hiDisplayForm(form)

The part I'm having issues with is buttonLayout part, I can't seem to understand the syntax in the DOCs

    There's a typo in the documentation (you originally had '('Empty ...) but I see you've corrected the mistake). Now the issue is that the callbacks need to be either an unquoted name of a function or a string. So something like this:

    main = hiCreateFormLayout('main_layout ?items () )

form = hiCreateLayoutForm(
             'myForm
             "myTitle"
             main
             ?buttonLayout '(Empty (myFun1 "myFun1()") (myFun2 "myFun2()") (Close hiFormClose))

)

hiDisplayForm(form)

    The first two buttons have a full function call expression to invoke, and the third is the name of the function to call (and this gets passed the form id).
