[Qgis-developer] Open custom form from another form

[Denis Rouzaud]

Hi Luca,

The best way to do this, is to set your personnally designed UI file in 
the layer properties->field properties->attribute editor layout->provide 
ui file

Then, you want to call qgis method to show a feature form:
http://qgis.org/api/classQgisInterface.html#aff2467aa3cefd8fc5b59213f385b7180

And you would need some processing to show it:
1. get feature id from the selected line
2. fetch the feature of the main layer
3. get the foreign key from one of its fields
4. fetch the corresponding feature
4. show the feature form with it


Anyway, if I understand properly, you're trying to do something which 
has been recently added to QGIS (it's in the master version), it's 1:n 
relations.

Cheers,

Denis
