Hi,

We have created a custom property which contains a check box. The value of the check box is saved, but while editing the form the check box is unchecked... The custom properties are reset when loaded for edit...

In the attachment, the value of the custom property is highlighted

Any help would be grateful.

Thank you...

That's a bit of a design-issue in form_builder so far: properties need to be put into the renderable array generated for the field. Under some circumstances form_builder reads them from the renderable. If the property is called 'custom' it's value needs to be stored under $element['#custom'].

@torotil very interesting findings. This bug slipped off my radar but we're still effected with it. When time allows I'll get to testing what you outlined.

@fenstrat: Usually _form_builder_webform_form_builder_load_COMPONENT() can be used to set the needed #property values. Once this is done things should work as expected. Although this _is_ a workaround for the underlying design issue we can't really change this for form_builder-7.x-1.x. Perhaps this needs some kind of documentation.
