Preconfiguring dynamic properties
I have a dynamic property in a custom processor that my down-streamers
struggle a little bit to configure (requires newlines and a peculiar
format). I would like to "preconfigure" a dynamic property as an example
that they can either modify or erase to add their own. Most of them
would probably just use what I preconfigure.
The point is that I don't wish it to be a full-raging, static property.
I want to see a trash can to the right of it. The trash can is not a
feature of static properties.
Is this possible, wrong-headed, what?
Thanks,
Russ

Thanks, that probably gets me all or most of what I wanted. I'll try it out.

I don't think it was the intent to pre-add a dynamic property. You
should be able to set a default value though, the user still has to
click the + icon to add the property though.
