Irene, Thanks for the quick reply. I have one more question on the applicability of the widget or restrictions of use. For example, are Table widgets only applicable to ObjectProperties and are Tree widgets only applicable to Object Properties that recursively form trees like hasChildren on person or hasPart on a bill of materials or worksFor on Employee.
