You can use the entity type to let a user select from among the current set of entities, or an embedded form to let him add a new entity.
My question is, how can you do both (i.e. offer a select field as well as an 'Add New' field)?
My builders are
$builder->add('customer', 'entity', array(
'class' => 'TechrescueAdminBundle:Customer',
'property' => 'label',
));
and
$builder->add('customer', new CustomerType());
but of course, one will overwrite the other if I have both.
