A beautifully neat solution from @stucork…
Override the base Component class in the startup form/module:
from anvil import Component
from anvil.js import get_dom_node
def set_id(self, value):
get_dom_node(self).id = value
def get_id(self):
return get_dom_node(self).id
Component.id = property(get_id, set_id)
Much nicer than the slightly revolting set_id function I’ve been using for years!
