In Dashboard , available Widgets[2] bind the “mapview”, viewparameters set “isEdited”.

Bind the parameter “isEdited” to PROPS’s “isEditing”.

When I Edit or not Edit , the label always is True ,not change?

Try adding a messageHandler that does refreshBinding on the label on value change of **isEditing**.

For that, you can create a messageHandler on your **Label\_0** component and add script `self.refreshBinding("props.text")` in the messageHandler.

Then, call this messageHandler on value change of **isEditing**.

By creating a messageHandler ,Label’s value change to the new. It’s right .

I think instead of creating a param in your map view, just create a custom property in the view. Remove all other code on your messageHandler and just put this code below.

```python
self.view.custom.isEdited = payload["value"]

```

Then, bind your label to this custom property **view.custom.isEdited**.
