I'm trying to find a way to prevent the Publish action from happening on a custom property editor in Umbraco 7, when there is a validation condition set.
e.g. in my angular controller i've got a simple global boolean for hasError - when that is true, I don't want the user to be able to Publish the page but rather want a validation message to show if they hit Publish.
There doesn't seem to be anything in the official documentation about how to do this, or at least I haven't found it.
Is there an event we can subscribe to in the JS and return false, or call a preventDefault or stopPropagation on, in order to stop the Publish action from happening?
Or some other method provided by the umbraco angular framework we should be using.
Umbraco 7 property editor - custom validation, prevent Publish

Hi Chris,
have you ever found a solution for this problem? Facing the exact same issue.
Thanks,
Christian
I have done it this way.
I created a hidden field with a required attribute.
Then in my angular controller I have function that I call that fills this field when my editor is valid. If it's not valid I leave it empty.
$scope.IsValidModel= function() { if (yourvalue != valid) { $scope.IsValid= ""; } else { $scope.IsValid= "valid"; } }That should do the trick
