Hi Paul, Any offer to write documentation is very attractive and worthy of a response. :)
You seem to have a problem in your massgis_mbconfig.xml file. A widget determines which model it should render from the tree structure in the config file. In your case, <SetAoi> should be inside <Context id="mainMap">. Ie <models> <Context id="mainMap"> <widgets> .. <SetAoi> </widget> </Context> </models> Cote, Paul wrote: > > Hi Folks, > > Sorry if this is posted twice.
