Hi,
DomStatusFieldDescriptorLink has a Visible property that allows you to hide a field for certain statuses.
The API also allows you to simply not add it to the FieldDescriptorLinks list.
Is there is any practical difference between these 2 options?
Hi Thomas,
If my memory serves me right, a field can only be saved on a DOM instance that resides in state X whenever state X has a DomStatusFieldDescriptorLink for that field in the definition.
So you only need to start adding these links from the state where it’s possible to have such a field onward. Imagine that you have 5 consecutive states (1-5), if you add a field in state 3, you only need to have that link in state 3, 4 and 5. You can then use the visible property to show or hide the saved field for each of the states.
