I created a simple test app to figure out the proper way to auto populate fields when selecting an item within a dropdown menu. I read some other Questions but I am confused a bit by the workflow
The App:
The user creates a new Main record and chooses or creates a new item from the Main List drop down menu. If they choose an item from the list, it will auto populate the Main Name field.
What is best practice to do this?
This is what I have so far that references the items data for the dropdown menu. The hard part is connecting the item selected to the Main Name to auto populate. Do I need to use a Lookup?

I tried what you suggested and now understand what you mean. In this case, the fields get auto populated, logged to the Main_Table and you can change the name if you want.
Would this work the same way if it was an Image being selected from the drop down menu?
Result auto populated colors field which is also still editableโฆ
