Anyone have any workaround to keep a datafield alive while launching a widget mid activity?
From my testing, it appears that launching a widget kills all running datafields and then restarts them once you come back to the activity.
i was able to catch this flow when trying it
onStop() - datafield method called when i launch a widget
then when i go back to an activity, the below are all called again, resetting the app
initialize()
onStart()
getInitialView()
