I need to dynamically generate the ConfigUI for some actions. This has been discussed in several threads, but is there any official guidance on how best to do this? I'm planning to interpose the getWhateverConfigUiXml calls, use minidom to parse the file XML, put in my edits, then reconstitute the XML and pass it to Indigo. Is there a better/more future-proof way to do this?
Why am I doing this? I want to define dynamic default values, morph menus to text fields and back, implement macros like menu-or-other, and such - all cases where I want to pick up the static XML, edit it according to rules, and then pass the result upstream. I'm not (currently) trying to make up ConfigUI from scratch.
This all means I'll add XML elements to your ConfigUI. Do you have any suggestion on how to name mine, so they're less likely to clash with future additions of yours?
Cheers
