Did anyone ever succesfully extend the MultiAttachmentsField controller?

Hi, 

I was wondering if anyone succesfully extended the MultiAttachmentsField Controller? I need to make a small change to the format function so the url that is generated is a bit different for some reason as soon as I make a new file custom/modules/Notes/clients/base/fields/multi-attachments/multi-attachments.js and add the following content the field seems to be broken?

({
    extendsFrom: 'BaseMultiAttachmentsField',

    format: function (value) {
        return this.super("format",value);
    }
})

even if I add the contructor to it with this.super('initialize',[options]) in it, it doesnt seem to be working. Any idea's on how to extend it correctly?

    For those who are also strugling with this. I got it working by adding a controller to custom/modules/Notes/clients/base/fields/multi-attachments. This controller should extend the BaseNotesMultiAttachmentsField instead of the default like to so:

    ({
    /**
     * Override multi-attachments field for notes
     */
    extendsFrom: 'BaseNotesMultiAttachmentsField',


    init: false,

    initialize: function(options){
        // your custom initialize code here   
    }
    
    // your custom code here..
    
})
