Examples

  1. This example returns 1 when the document is being loaded into memory. 
    @IsDocBeingLoaded
  2. This example returns 0 when the document is saved.
    @IsDocBeingLoaded
  3. This example, when used in a computed field named "Editors," displays the contents of $UpdatedBy when the document is being loaded. When the user recalculates the field (by pressing F9), the field displays the user's name as the current editor, followed by previous editors' names. When the document is saved, the value of "Editors" remains unchanged.
    @If(@IsDocBeingLoaded;$UpdatedBy;
@IsDocBeingRecalculated;("Current Editor - " + @UserName):$UpdatedBy;Editors)
