I am creating an action on the document libaray that will present a form to the user. I know the action config in share-config-custom.xml can use the onActionFormDialog function to show a form to the user but I would like to pre-populate the form with data from an aspect before displaying it to the user. Is there a way to do this?
How would one do this if there is? i.e what class must one extend or is it possible to hook into the form display process to manipulate the form before it is displayed?
Yes, but its not on the metadata, content model, properties form. It will be displayed on an document library action from before the results are sent to the action on the repository tier.
