I think it shouldn't be available in the "Add new" dropdown. Maybe i should give another try explaining what i need, hopefully some more precise. There are (will be) two roles. Manager (priviliged) and Employee (unprivileged). The Manager can create forms over plone. Still not sure how, since the forms might have really different structures and contents (tables, images, workflow-diagrams). But the Manager should have be able to create such forms intuitive, like it is possible in FormGen. Even if someone would propose any idea on how to solve the dynamic structuring of a document would help a lot. The User can view the FormDocuments created by Manager (a User-View should really only show the Document, without any insertfields. In the Edit-Mode of User, he should be able to fill out the Form (so in some kind editing the Document), but only the fields, which (somehow) were defined as edit-able by the Manager. After clicking on "Save", or whatever, the Document shouldn't actually be edited, but another Document should be created, which wouldn't accept further editing. So in few words, a manager creates a kind of template which users can use for creating another documents based on it. Again, to come back to Andreas' question, I'm really not sure wether a document (Form / Template, don't know how to call) should be an own Content Type. I guess not. At least I woulnd't know what for. Such a document, independing on its formstructure would already be a folderish contenttype, which would contain simplier documents of another content type. This is just a small detail of the whole product, since I think other things I could manage. Anyway, if further details are interesting for anyone, I would write them down :) The product should (hopefully) become a tool for Quality Management. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Dynamic-Content-Types---FormGen-like-tp17248676s20094p17314152.html Sent from the Product Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Product-Developers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.plone.org/mailman/listinfo/product-developers
