Hello All -
This actually can be done. See https://community.skuid.com/t/edit-mode-button?topic-reply-list%5Bsettings%5D%5Bfilte… for more details and make sure to read the posts that follow this post. You can also then use conditional rendering to hide/show fields based on the row state (new, existing, cloned, etc.).
In the app I’m building, I have a single page for everything - View, Edit, New & Clone. During page initialization, I have a custom component that sits on top of a framework that I’ve built that detects what type of page ‘mode’ it should be - New, Edit, View & Clone mode. From there, it flips certain components to the desired mode. As you guys mention above, having a single page is a huge time saver on both development & maintenance.
All that said, having this be a stock feature of Skuid would be awesome and avoid a lot of javascript that is required to properly support the functionality.
