Does not work with existing db values

[tanthammar]

If the BroadcasterFields have existing values in db.
Those field values are not accounted for when an update form is loaded.
Which makes the User think that the calculation is incorrect.

For better usability it would be best if the initial values of all BroadcasterFields are emitted to the listeners when they are mounted.

                    $disc_percent = $values->get('disc_percent') / 100;
                    $disc_amount = $values->get('disc_amount');
                    $disc_sum = ($gross * $disc_percent) + $disc_amount;
                    $disc_gross = $gross - $disc_sum;
                    return $disc_gross;

hi,did you find any solution for this?

[tanthammar]

@ramisaaa No, I did not.

Hi, any news about that?

@codebykyle This is a really nice component, seems that is abandoned, would be great to solve this issue so this component will become more useful.
