Issue/Introduction
When using :
ca_fdHideField(s)
ca_fdShowField(s)
ca_fdEnableField(s)
ca_fdDisableField(s)
The code used by Catalog looks like :
scope.disable = function(){
scope.field.disabled = true;
scope.$apply();
}
You can find this code in about all the file located in \scripts\catalogux\common\components\form\fields
Using $apply results in an exception :
ca_fdShowFields: Error: [$rootScope:inprog] $apply already in progress
http://errors.angularjs.org/1.5.7/$rootScope/inprog?p0=%24apply
at angular.js:1
at gK (angular.js:1)
at gA.$digest (angular.js:1)
at gA.$apply (angular.js:1)
at gA.scope.show (LabelDirective.js:78)
at String.<anonymous> (FormAPIs.js:288)
at Function.each (eval at <anonymous> (jquery-1.11.2.js:2), <anonymous>:2:3005)
at window.ca_fdShowFields (FormAPIs.js:282)
at Object.showLabel (eval at switchFdScope (formdesigner.js:502), <anonymous>:3:12)
at eval (eval at evalJsFunction (formdesigner.js:581), <anonymous>:1:10)
As per stackoverflow, using $apply should be avoided and $evalAsync should be used instead. One other dirty solution is to wrap the $apply into a settimeout with 0ms. Wich is what your devs did in LookupField.js.
Replacing $apply with $evalAsync and everything works fine.

Additional Information
to reproduce :
Create 3 labels with those ids: [“lbl_clickme”, “lbl_showme”, “lbl_showme2”]
In the lbl_clickme parameters, add this function: ca_fd.js.showLabel() in the onClick field.
Hide those labels in the form: [“lbl_showme”, “lbl_showme2”]
In the form script section, add this following code:
{
showLabel: function() {
ca_fdShowFields(ca_fd.formId, ["lbl_showme", "lbl_showme2"])
}
}
Current behavior:
When you click on the clickme label, The first lbl_showme will appear as expected. However, an exception is triggered and the second label will be ignored with this error in the console :
