Add Row Modal

Allow a user to add a row to a table by opening a form in a modal, accessed through a button, and the form is very customizable.

Outline Display: Provide a button (labeled {{buttonText}}) to the user that brings up a modal to let them add a row to {{tab}}. The form is defined by: {{rowIngredients}}

Details

The form appears in a modal dialog triggered by a button. Form ingredients are composed sequentially: later fields can reference earlier fields via formulas. Key columns should use SequentialID.

Local scope

Names introduced within this component’s knobs:
