Hello! πŸ‘‹
Is it possible when using
custom-asset-sources to be also able to update other parts of the document? It looks like that can be done using
onChange
&
PatchEvent
but I'm not seeing
onChange
passed to my plugin. Any thoughts?

I have a plugin that is following the Custom Asset Source steps to open a dialog with an existing image modify it, and re-save it. Along with modifying it, I want to be able to have a text input that captures a caption for that image. When a user is done, I'd like them to be able to save the modified image & the caption. Currently I'm only able to pass the image back via
onSelect
.
