Is there any way that you could have Filters be applied during property editing like the other constraint types? Right now, in 2.4.7, it appears that property values are only evaluated against the Rex filter rules during application build, which minimizes the value of being able to use Rexs.

Please let me know if I've lost my mind and there is a way to get these to work during property editing.

Thanks...

Tim,

In addition to the app start/build -- which is really the main one that must work, preventing passing of an invalid value to the appliance -- I believe we check this in the CLI (e.g., on "app config").

We will check the EDT - and since it appears not to do it, make sure we add this check in a next release. I agree it would make sense to extend the field value validation checks to include the string constraints -- whether regex or enumerated.

Thanks for pointing this out,
-- Peter
