I am trying to set a value with a custom component, but I am getting no response when the

PatchEvent.from(set(value));

executes.

The docs mentions this syntax:

{
  type: 'set' | 'unset' | 'setIfMissing',
  path?: Array<string>,
  value?: any
}

Hi, sorry for the sparse documentation - we're working on improving this. Do you call your custom input component's

onChange

prop with it anywhere? PatchEvent.from(...) is just a action creator and doesn't do anything on it's own.
There's an example in the render() function here:
