Complex dynamic link editor

The complex dynamic link editor allows you to add advanced logic to the source node value. The complex dynamic link editor displays in the
Advanced
tab of the dynamic link browser.
For more information about the dynamic link browser, see Dynamic link browser.
You can also open the complex dynamic link editor in the central pane by selecting
Open in editor
. Opening the complex dynamic link editor in the central pane is useful for editing a complex dynamic link that has a lengthy logic.
TIP: If multiple dynamic link browsers are open, you can open only one
Advanced
tab in the dynamic link browser. If the complex dynamic link editor is open when you open a dynamic link popup, the
Advanced
tab regains focus.
