public interface IPluginFormElementPropertiesExtension extends IFCPlugin
A plugin that lets you add additional properties to existing form elements, which can be configured in the form designer.This plugin takes care of the server side. If you only need to add one of the built-in XPropertyEnum, no additional action is required.
For custom properties, you should also create a
IPluginFormDesignerResource
to include a JavaScript resource in the form designer which adds the property editors for the new custom properties. Use e.g. the functionsregisterCustomProperty
andregisterCustomCategory
provided by the client-side JavaScript API.See also
IPluginFormRenderCallback
, which lets you adjust how existing items are rendered. You can use that plugin, for example, to add additional data attributes based on the custom properties.- Since:
