You could calcualte it in a view field or similar though on the fly based on changes in the form

@toeknee mmm debugging the code, the problem is slightly different the function refresh the field...but not take the last value save in db but the previous... (consider that the field in db is virtual... if i refresh page the result is correct) protected function afterSave(): void { $this->refreshFormData([ 'calorie_calc', ]); }

 protected function afterSave(): void
    {
        $this->refreshFormData([
            'calorie_calc' => $this->record->refresh()->calorie_calc
        ]);
    }

 protected function afterSave(): void
    {
        $this->refreshFormData([
            'calorie_calc' => $this->record->refresh()->calorie_calc
        ]);
    }

How about this ?

not work..and not understand why.... work with $this->form->fill([

Where does the calorie_calc value come from? why are you trying to update it after save?

Ok.. just use $this->form->fill($this->record->refresh()->toArray())

ZoltarOP•6d ago

now work 🙂 ..but why not work with refreshFormData?

toeknee•6d ago

Is this a custom page?

ZoltarOP•6d ago

i try this....and not work $this->refreshFormData([ 'calorie_calc' => 13 ]); no simple EditRecord

So viewRecord and EditRecord has the refreshFormData which does

    public function refreshFormData(array $attributes): void
    {
        $data = [
            ...$this->data,
            ...Arr::only($this->getRecord()->attributesToArray(), $attributes),
        ];

        $this->form->fill($data);
    }

    public function refreshFormData(array $attributes): void
    {
        $data = [
            ...$this->data,
            ...Arr::only($this->getRecord()->attributesToArray(), $attributes),
        ];

        $this->form->fill($data);
    }

So if you pass in the correct attribute it should trump it... try

$this->refreshFormData($this->record->refresh()->toArray())

$this->refreshFormData($this->record->refresh()->toArray())

Method Filament\Forms\Form::refreshFormData does not exist.

toeknee•6d ago

Sorry updated

ZoltarOP•6d ago

$this->form->fill($this->record->refresh()->toArray()); this work correctly I just wanted to understand if refreshFormData couldn't be used

toeknee•6d ago

So it should be used can can be, it's defined It could be that it's too late in the cycle. But either way, if the fill works and that's all refresh does... then win win!
