[Qgis-developer] Attribute Dialog inactive for new feature; regression from 2.2

[Bernhard Ströbl]

Hi all,

in a plugin I create a new feature for a vector layer (being in editing 
mode) and before adding it to the layer I want the user to input the 
attribute data. I use

accepted = iface.openFeatureForm(layer, newFeature)

However the OK button and all input widgets in the dialog are inactive.

The same happens if I add the feature to the layer before calling 
openFeatureForm; all is active if I call openFeatureForm with a feature 
already in the layer, though.

This is QGIS master on Linux 64 bit

The behaviour is a regression to QGIS 2.2 where all works as expected.

Is this the intended behaviour? If yes is there any work around suitable 
for QGIS 2.0+? If no, I will file a ticket.

all the best

Bernhard
