-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
The default interfaces for OCD/AD provide just enough information to build a generic configuration editor for Metatype'd configurations. However, on can think of use cases in which the editor needs additional 'hints' in order to provide a better user experience. For example, one could think of an attribute that provides the user a list of predefined options, *or* allows him/her to type another option (not in the list). While it is certainly not an option to extend the MetaType spec with all kinds of fancy options for UI-builders, might it not be an idea to add a kind of "free-format" field to the OCD/AD for these kinds of situations? - -- Met vriendelijke groeten | Kind regards Jan Willem Janssen | Software Architect +31 631 765 814 /My world is:/ Luminis Technologies B.V.
