  The "func" parameter is just a callable function and uses the PHP call_user_func. So you need to create a function or a class with method (which would be an array of array($myclass, 'method')) to do the rendering of your field. The function gets the array of parameters you passed to the dependent field.
  // A function perhaps in you fuel/application/helpers/my_helper.php function my_func($params) { // your custom field code goes here } // Then in your form code $fields['myfield'] = array('type' => 'dependent', 'func' => 'my_func');
  
  However, what it sounds like you are wanting to do is similar to using a "block" field that uses block layouts that perhaps contains a "template" field type:
