Dynamically add CheckGroup with checkbox items to Display Form

Hi all,

I'm trying to add multiple CheckGroups to a display form dynamically. I added a part of the workflow, to clarify. Inside the load event of a display form, I have a For Each loop, and within that For Each loop (running through an array of names) I add a CheckGroup Form Element to the form. Works fine.

However, two steps later I want to Set the Form Element Items for that CheckGroup. But it does not recognize the dynamically created Element ID of the CheckGroup; the workflow stops with the error:

 

Error in header element's load event in a Display Form activity: The form does not contain an element with the name '$form1.state.checkbox_functie'.

 

I tried adding a delay in between, to make sure the checkbox was properly loaded, but it didn't help.

 

Something else I tried was adding the items during creation, but then nothing happens: the description is added, but the items not. I tried that by defining the element as follows, in the 'AddFormElement':

={ description:$attrNames.result[$count.result], items:$formElementItems1.items }

My question thus is; is there a way to dynamically add element items to a checkgroup, which is itself also dynamically created? Either by adding them later, or by adding them during creation.

Thanks in advance!

  The items seem to load for me using your second method, are you getting an error when setting the items in the object?

  Thanks for checkng it out @Zack Robison? ! I am not getting an error, but the checkboxes simply don't show. Does it work for you using my workflow as a start? Or did you recreate it yourself?
