ValueChangedThisAction

Description

Returns True if this field's value was modified by the current action.

This method considers changes that were made after the action was initialized, that is, after the BuildEntity or EditEntity method returns. This method returns False if the field was implicitly changed only during the action's initialization (which includes FIELD_DEFAULT_VALUE hooks setting initial default field values).

This mechanism detects actions that take place only on the Entity object to which this field belongs. It ignores actions on other Entity objects.

Syntax
