Adding custom property

[mpilo0]

We're creating a widget from scratch, however we have a few problems because we want to bind a dictionnary field into the new property. When i create the new widget, i have my property who appears and everything, however i don't have the option to bind to a dictionnary field. I've read the documentation on pui.addCustomProperty and cannot find a way to do it. Please help.

Not exactly sure what you mean by "bind a dictionary field to a new property." Are you referring to the translation dictionary? Or something like a field reference file (data dictionary)? Or...?

Maybe you are just looking to set up your widget so that the default value of a property is bound to a particular field? If so, this would be done with the 'defaults' property on the pui.toolbox.add() API.

Sorry, I should've specified but i do indeed mean the translation dictionnary.

Sorry, the 'pui.addCustomProperty()' document needed an update -- I've done so now. If you pass a property "translate" set to true, the option will appear to translate your custom property.

Ok, Thank you both for your help.
