Hi Lennart,

The parent-component's dialog should not edit *both* child components. The 
parent-component's dialog should edit content specific to the parent component. 
For example, often the parent component might contain a headline or an 
introduction paragraph which appears above the nested components.
If this is not the case for you, and you parent component really contains no 
editable data, you can just define an "empty" dialog. We often put a "static" 
control in there with a bit of text like "This component cannot be edited. Add 
sub-components and edit those." So that the editors know what's going on...

Regards from Vienna,

Richard

Betreff: [magnolia-dev] Nested Components: Dialog?

Hi again,

I've created a component with one area of type list. This area contains two 
availableComponents. Each of these nested components has a dialog. I set 
maxComponents of the area to 2.

When I try to edit the parent component I get an "Entry for [null] not found in 
registry"-error, leading me to the fact, that the parent component does not 
have a dialog definition...

But: What kind of dialog is supposed to edit *both* nested components?

Confused:
crusy


PS, in case this helps: The perfect solution would be: Both nested components 
are mandatory, and the dialog reflects just both of the nested components' 
dialogs.
