reason to let form designer refresh form

usr338

Hi, I think i found a situation that make form refresh essential for designer.
i have a collection that will be shown in header and a form assigned to that to let user change collection data.
In other forms there is dropdown field that its data is filtered using collection shown in header. auto select for this drop down are active(=1).
when user change collection though assigned form to it, drop-down data will be changed(because of filter) but auto select will not select data for drop-down(because it only do it for new record on form load). so user need to refresh the page to change effect.
what do you think? is this a valid senario for form refresh ? or auto select should work somehow?

Form refresh exists - for this you use the function app.form_open() using the current form ID. This reloads the current form.

Or do you mean page refresh (eg. F5)? In the later case you still only need to refresh the form, not the page. At least if I understand your explanation.

If it´s too difficult to put into text, you could share your app with a short explanation of what is supposed to happen on which form. Then we could directly see the issue.
