Hi,

I am trying to create a nested multifield dialog using coral 3 (libs/granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/multifield).

In the first authoring when I click the "Add" fields for both parent and sub-multifield its working fine. But once I save the dialog and try to author it the second time and select the parent "Add" option then it displays the fields of the sub-multifield instead of the parent multifield.

We want to achieve this functionality without using acs-commons approach.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Raunak

THe Eng team said use of Nested granite/coral multi field was not supported - that is why its not working well.

Just checked with Eng on this - the response was:

nested multifield is NOT support otb, only composite is supported; and ACS commons nested multifield is coral2

See - Nested multifield in AEM 6.3 + sightly

@smacdonald2008 - In the multifield widget(/libs/granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/multifield/render.jsp) itself it is mentioned that nesting is supported in the composite multifield. Also, The ACS commons link which refers to the multifield extensions says it to be deprecated and asked to use the OTB coral multifield from AEM6.3 onward. I was also facing the same issue when we open the dialog after configuring it once.When we click on ADD it only opens the inner multifield irrespective if we click on outer multifield or inner multifield. Could you please validate ?
