Still been researching this and haven't found a solution...would anyone have any ideas?

Need to be able to automatically fill in the Node Name based on a property value entered on the node.

So for example a new node is created, and a value of "Company A" is picked in the dropdown. The Nodename is then automatically filled in with "Company A"

Hi,

What Content events have you tried to override so far? Maybe the 'saving' rather than the 'saved' event could work for you? (not sure at what point the property validation kicks in though).

Failing that you could create a custom Property Editor that extends the Member Picker data type and adds the member name to your node name when it's selected. However that would be a bit more work...

Thanks,

Maff

Hi Matt,

if you really want to do it when you select the member then you have to create a custom property editor in which you handle the callback of the member Dialog and update the property of the node you are editing.

Don't know for sure how you geht access to the node property but with some testing you should Figuren it out. Maybe it is in scope or in some parent scope.

Shouldn't this mich afford. The Dialogs are fairly simple to use. Here is the API doc if you don't know it already.

A bit old thread, but just wanted to say how I ended up solving this, if anyone maybe finds it helpful.

I ended up using editorState: http://umbraco.github.io/Belle/#/api/umbraco.services.editorState

var currentEditorState = editorState.getCurrent();
currentEditorState.name = "New awesome name";
editorState.set(currentEditorState);

My use case was that I needed the node name to match the selection from a dropdown selector.

is working on a reply...
