  To be slightly more specific on the problem/request, I'm unsure how to reference a "type: datatable" inside an editor definition, to update/refresh the data within it. I can use editor.dependent() to trigger all the necessary workflow to create a filtered dataset, I'm getting it returned, I have it, but unsure how to send that to the editor datatable element to refresh its contents.

  Figured it out ...

    editor.dependent('a_id', function (val, data, callback) {
      $.ajax({
          type: "POST",
          url: '/api/dt/filter',
          async: true,
          data: { values: { 'id': val } },
          dataType: "json",
          success: function (data) {
              console.log('data',data);
              editor.field('a_id').update(data.results);
              return;
          }
      })
    });
  

  Not as classy as updating the "options" table, but it works!

  That leaves figuring out how to re-select the values, if you're editing something that has already been built ...

  Editor should handle the reselection of values automatically. Can you give me a link to a page showing the issue please?
