Set a value programmatically after DataForm is loaded

[Yunuen Sanchez]

Hello guys,

I would like to modify a value on a field after the form is loaded. The user will touch a button and after some calculations the final result will update another editor on the dataform. 

I tried the method UpdateEditorForProperty + ReloadData, but only works if the no other field has been manually updated.

Thanks

Hi, Yunuen,

Thank you for writing.
You can easily edit a property value when another property is edited by using the valueCandidate property of TKEntityProperty and implementing dataForm:didCommitProperty: method of TKDataFormDelegate. Consider the code below:

- (void)dataForm:(TKDataForm *)dataForm didCommitProperty:(TKEntityProperty *)property
{
    if ([property.name isEqualToString:@"password"]) {
        _dataSource[@"secure"].valueCandidate = @(YES);
    }
}

Thank you Adrian! The valueCandidate property is the one I was looking for.
