Thank you Stephen.
Martin had helped me resolve this off-list and I was about to post the
solution. That was indeed the issue.
Ended up like this:
def DY_propTest_DefineLayout( in_ctxt ):
return True
def DY_propTest_ComboMode_OnChanged():
oProp = PPG.Inspected[0]
oLayout = PPG.PPGLayout
buildPPGLayout(oProp, oLayout)
return True
def DY_propTest_OnInit( ):
oProp = PPG.Inspected[0]
oLayout = PPG.PPGLayout
buildPPGLayout(oProp, oLayout)
Cheers,
DAN
