Thanks David,
I followed your advice and it does the trick for me!

detected in widget definition"
Hi,
Try to use the approach used in the "Form model GUI example" : you need
to add a new department only when needed, so use a widget supporting the
"submit-on-change" function.
<fd:new id="Department"/>
<fd:class id="Department">
<fd:widgets>
<fd:field id="departmentName">
<fd:label>Department Name</fd:label>
<fd:datatype base="string"/>
</fd:field>
<fd:repeater id="subDepartments">
<fd:label>subDepartments</fd:label>
<fd:widgets>
<fd:new id="Department-row"/>
</fd:widgets>
</fd:repeater>
</fd:widgets>
</fd:class>
<fd:class id="Department-row">
<fd:widgets>
<fd:field id="type">
<fd:label>Type element</fd:label>
<fd:datatype base="string"/>
<fd:selection-list>
<fd:item value="">
<fd:label>nothing</fd:label>
</fd:item>
<fd:item value="department">
<fd:label>department</fd:label>
</fd:item>
</fd:selection-list>
</fd:field>
<fd:union id="union" default="" case="type">
<fd:datatype base="string"/>
<fd:label>Type</fd:label>
<fd:widgets>
<fd:struct id="Department">
<fd:label>Department</fd:label>
<fd:widgets>
<fd:new id="departmentName"/>
<fd:new id="Department"/>
</fd:widgets>
</fd:struct>
</fd:union>
</fd:widgets>
</fd:class>
Well, it's not really beautiful, because like this you will have a dummy
selection list with only one option.
I guess you can replace it with a simple action-widget.
On my (newbying) opinion, that is the spirit : instead of adding your
"fd:new" tag recreating your element directly in the very same element,
you put it in another, in which you won't automaticaly add this element,
but only when needed.
You also need to create a template file according to this structure. You
can find an example in the sample.
Good luck !
