Using Rules Editor to limit number of attachments

I recently noticed that you can either select one or multiple attachments for an adaptive form. I would l ike to limit the number of attachments to 4. How can I do that?

Simply use the following script in the validate event of the file attachment field. it works.

 

if(this.value.split("\n").length < 5)
  {
    true;
  }
else
  {false;}

@lsmurph Can be handled but may require custom code. Let me see if I have one in the archive.

    @lsmurph use this on value commit of attachment: 

    guideBridge.getFileAttachmentsInfo({
    success:function(list) {
    for(var i = 0; i< list.length; i++) {
    // console.log(list[i].name + " "+ list[i].path);
    if(list.length>4)
    document.getElementsByClassName('button-default button-medium guide-fu-attach-button')[0].disabled=true;
    }
    }
    });
