I did everything I could not to redevelop anything... I spent some time understanding the wysiwyg and overriding only bare necessities. I think the wizard could also be externalized from the wysiwyg and "generalized"... It is quite useful to create some gwt tools. > We could use such a selector for selecting the page where to import a given > document in the XWiki Office Importer for instance.

I can also create a Xwiki page from the selector... I can build one magnolia page from several xwiki page etc... As I didn't want to access the full XWiki interface just to edit a paragraph, I also created a "lightweight" skin with just the wysiwyg/wiki editor+syntax choice but no object/class/attachment/comment/... I can integrate it into a Magnolia dialog... quite practical also... I will explain that on my website when I have some time... > > Nice work, > > Guillaume > > > > regards > > Pascal > > _______________________________________________ > > devs mailing list > > devs@xwiki.org > > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs > > > > > > -- > Guillaume Lerouge > Product Manager - XWiki > Skype ID : wikibc > http://guillaumelerouge.com/ > _______________________________________________ > devs mailing list > devs@xwiki.org > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs > _______________________________________________ devs mailing list devs@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
