Is this a bug or expected behavior? I have been able to do similar things in the past, so I'm not sure why this isn't working. |
So the dropdown list you have is set to show "Things" and not "Picks". You can't modify a Thing only Pick. A "Thing" is something (ie feat, race, spell) that is in the HL database but is not Live on the character. Once chosen and added to the character it becomes a Pick and you can modify it with scripts.
I don't know what field[fChosen].chosen is accessing with out the custom expression. But in example if your download list was showing "Skills" and you set to "All Things" then you could see Knowledge skills in the dropdown list even though the Knowledge skill is not live or added to the skills tab. If you tried to modify that Knowledge skill you would get the 'Read only' error message above.
Hope that helps.
