Hey Rob -
With the new Summer '14 release, the ability to conditionally clone a model is exposed and is extremely powerful. One of these benefits is that we can now develop pages that handle “New” and “Clone” as well as “View” and “Edit.” In short, one page instead of multiple.
Unfortunately, one challenge that I’m facing to accomplish this without code is detecting a “new” record since on a Cloned model, CreatedDate has a value but the record is New.
Any thoughts on how to solve for this and also if you guys are planning on expanding the “conditional” rendering options to include IsNew and other types of capabilities (call a snippet, formulas, url param, field from another model, etc.) in a future release?
Thanks!
