Hello,

I would like to ask a question regarding the reevaluation of SAIL interfaces, one that I have not been clear on so far.
Does ANY user interaction with SAIL components cause the whole interface to be reevaluated?
For example, changing the value of a radioButton or the value of a textField, would that cause the whole SAIL interface to be reevaluated?
And reevaluation, if I have understood correctly, means that all expressions within all SAIL components of an interface will be reevaluated, even to return the same result that is already being displayed.

We have been using a series of cascading drop down fields where the choices of each drop down field must be updated from the database using the selected value of the previous drop down field. Now, given that each drop down field is within a ...
