[Qgis-developer] (very) dynamic (python) forms

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Richard,

Here is more info.

To associate the start-script with the layer do the following:
Layer Properties --> General --> Init function

The python script can reside either in the project directory, side by side
with the .qgs project file, or in the python plugin directory.

In my case the init functions are "haltung.featureFormInit" and
"normschacht.featureFormInit". It receives the following parameters:
dialog,layerid,featureid

I attached you two sample scripts. You can't do much with it without the
database, but you see the structure of the script. Starting from the
featureFormInit method or function you can do pretty much everything you
can do with python scripting.

Hope this helps,
Andreas
