Hello,

is there a way to dynamically change the modelClass property on the RecordFinder widget?

Thanks.

it's a public property of the object, so you should be able to change it.

You can also use this event:

https://octobercms.com/docs/api/backend/form/extendfieldsbefore

Event::listen('backend.form.extendFieldsBefore', function ($widget) {
    // make sure you have the right model & controller here...
    if ($widget->getController() instanceof yourController  && $widget->model instanceof yourModel) {
        $widget->fields['recordFinder_fieldName']['modelClass'] = 'otherClass';
    }
});

Thank you. It works in the 'backend.form.extendFieldsBefore' event. When I try the same in the 'backend.form.refreshFields' event, the new modelClass is not used.

I use the 'backend.form.refreshFields' event because RecordFinder dependsOn some other field.

But if you set it using backend.form.extendFieldsBefore it should still have the same value when you do your things using backend.form.refreshFields?!

I verified the code flow in the source code and backend.form.extendFieldsBefore is definitely going to be fired within onRefresh() BEFORE the backend.form.refreshFields event is fired.

All good. It works as it should. Thank you.
