Interesting. Sort of, yes...!
With FT 2.1.0+ when you create a radio, checkbox, dropdown or multi-select dropdown, you have the option to specify *either* an Option List as the data source for the field, or the contents of a separate form field (but on from a different form). To do this, just edit the field on the Edit Form -> Fields tab, and go to the second tab in the dialog window that appears. There, in the Option List / Content field, pick the form field.
So you could create a form #1, that has an "event" field. Then in the second form, target the contents of that form field for the dropdown field (or whatever). Then the content of that dropdown would always reflect what's in that other form.
It's dynamic, but pretty limited. Plus it only pulls from a single form field - and it has to be in a separate form. So it's definitely not perfect, but it may help for certain cases.
Any use?
