The table can have these entries: X key: A key name in the bound table. X bind_to_object or object: Optional. The name of an observable table which overrides both the default bind_to_object value and this binding's bind_to_object value. X uniqueKey: Optional. Because you can specify keys in different tables, the names might overlap. This provides a unique name that is used to identify this key in the values table passed to your operation function. Optional. An observable table which overrides the value of the bind_to_object view property.

Binding UI values to data values
105
transform = function( value, fromTable )
if fromTable then
return value ~= nil and value ~= '' -- check that key has a value
end
return LrBinding.kUnsupportedDirection
end,

},

end )
Binding multiple keys
To specify even more complex bindings, between a property in a view object and multiple keys in one or
more bound tables, the value part of a
binding
key-value pair can be a table with these items:
keys
A table specifying one or more keys. The table can have these entries:
X
key
: A key name in the bound table.
X
bind_to_object
or
object
: Optional. The name of an observable table
which overrides both the default
bind_to_object
value and this
binding’s
bind_to_object
value.
X
uniqueKey
: Optional. Because you can specify keys in different tables,
the names might overlap. This provides a unique name that is used to
identify this key in the values table passed to your
operation
function.
bind_to_object
—or—
object
Optional. An observable table which overrides the value of the
bind_to_object
view property.
