Welcome to the #dominoforever Product Ideas Forum! The place where you can submit product ideas and enhancement request. We encourage you to participate by voting on, commenting on, and creating new ideas. All new ideas will be evaluated by HCL Product Management & Engineering teams, and the next steps will be communicated. While not all submitted ideas will be executed upon, community feedback will play a key role in influencing which ideas are and when they will be implemented.

What if I can't/won't use a special form to do computations ? Evaluate would allow situative Operations on the document without the need to hard-code every possible case in forms.
Actually, it can use an arbitrary form: https://doc.cwpcollaboration.com/appdevpack/docs/en/domino-db-advanced.html#compute-with-form
So you can do what you want today, just make a form with all your formulas in it :)
You can compute with form on a document read. It uses the form listed on the document but that should evaluate fields that are for display. If this is not working for you, can you please raise a support ticket?
I think tgere is lots of classes that needs to be added to this not only evaluate to make this an alternative devpath.
