    Change input type based on data type

    I need to change a textfield based on a value in a combobox. For instance, if i choose a numeric value i need to set the inpiut field to NumberField, if a date value is selected i need to change the input field to DateField, etc...

    Hi,

    You can render a required field dynamically. Please see the example how to render a control dynamically.
    https://examples1.ext.net/#/XRender/Basic/New_Window/

    Please note that, certainly, you can render it via JavaScript.

    Another way is using a CardLayout: define required fields at each card and set up a current card depending on ComboBox's value.

    Good. But the control will be located into a fieldset, if i use the RenderMode.AddTo this method will send the inputfield to the end of the list? cause this is the last contron on this fieldset to be populated.

    Tanx for your quick reply.

    You can call the FieldSet's RemoveAll method before adding a new item.

    the problem is that i got more controls inside the fieldset, this is just the one that changes based in another.

    Could you demonstrate your requirement with some simple example?
