Thanks. This isn't very helpful, though. From my understanding **Submission** is an `element` Shouldn't matter. Maybe it does. Do you know of any events firing from the control panel then?

<p>It appears to me that Freeform Submission events do not fire when editing events in the control panel. They certainly fire from a front-end submission.</p>

<p>That would make this statement in the documentation untrue. Emphasis added.</p>

"Submissions" is referring to the submission of a front end form. Not the Control Panel.
