| FormField | resetPosition() | Boolean | Resets field position to default position specified in field editor. |
| FormSliderField | resetRange() | Object | If the min or max values have been set via amiscript, this resets to default config |
| FormSliderField | resetStep() | Object | If the step value has been set via amiscript, this resets to default config |
| FormField | setAnchors(anchors) | Boolean | Set this field's position by anchor, rather than as a fixed box. Which keys you supply decides how the field behaves when the panel resizes: left+width is fixed forever, left+right keeps a fixed gutter each side and stretches, leftPct+rightPct tracks the panel proportionally. Vertical works the same with top/bottom/height. minWidth/maxWidth (and the height pair) clamp whatever those keys work out to, so a proportional field neither collapses on a narrow panel nor sprawls on a wide one. On a field positioned by anchors they clamp that field alone and take no space from its neighbours, so a floor big enough to matter will overlap them and a cap leaves a hole beside them; if the field is a member of a layout group, the group divides its box so the floor is met without overlapping and hands back what the cap refused. This replaces the whole position spec and any key you omit is cleared. |

| FormField | setDisabled(disabled) | Boolean | Set the disabled status of the field (true for disabling, false for enabling). |

| FormField | setError(error) | Boolean | Shows an error message against this field. Passing null or an empty message clears it. The message is never saved with the layout. Depending on the field's Error Indication style, the field itself may also be recoloured. |
| FormField | setFieldValue(key, value) | Boolean | Sets the key value pair to this portlet's attributes and returns true if successful. For key, put in the field's variable name, then set the value. |
| FormField | setLabelTooltip(tooltip) | Boolean | Sets the label tooltip. |
| FormField | setPosition(x, y, w, h) | Boolean | Sets the field position. Specify (x,y) position, width, and height in pixels. Passing null to an argument is equivalent to not setting a value for that specific argument. |
| FormField | setPosition(rect) | Boolean | Sets the position, if the position is null then resets the overrides |
| FormSliderField | setRange(min, max) | Object | Set min and max values of field |
| FormSliderField | setStep(step) | Object | Set step of range field |
| FormField | setValue(value) | Boolean | Set this field's value. This is a generic set method that is available for every field in AMI. For FormRangeSlider and FormImage field, it is advisable to use their own setValue() method. |
| FormSliderField | setValue(val) | Object | Set low and high values of field |
| FormField | setVisible(visible) | Boolean | Sets the visibility of this field. Returns false iff the argument is null, true otherwise. |
| Object | toJson() | String | Returns a string of a json representation of this object. |
| FormField | validate() | Boolean | Calls onValidate() on this field, showing the returned message as the field's error or clearing it when nothing is returned. A field with no onValidate() is left alone, so an error set by setError() is not cleared, and it passes. A validator that queries a datasource suspends this script until it answers, and a validator that throws fails the field with 'Unexpected Error'. Returns true if the field passed. |
