Using a the Window component to submit the parent form including validation.

[Jstemper]

I have a form that I would like to use the Window component on to gather additional information before submitting the parent form. 

Is there a way to trigger submit of the parent form and the associated Validations from the Window component? Or is there a different component that should be used?

Hi,

If you have an EditContext object for the form and you pass it to the window cotnents, you will be able to use its .Validate() method as required by your logic.

That said, I recommend you take a look at the following three articles that explain similar situations and common issues with similar setups that you may want to keep in mind:
