Bruno,
Yes sorry, I read your mail too fast. From the top of my head I have always used selectable (sélectionnable in french, see
ProductSelectable as label). I'm not quite sure of the difference, maybe it's better to use Distinguishing in your case. I suggest
that you look into related java code for this. This is often the quicker way to know specific things in OFBiz ;o)

Jacques,
I am actually using "Distinguishing" not "Standard".
If I select anything other than "Distinguishing" I do not have the features
visible in the product detals in ecommerce.
What is the difference with "selectable" ?

Hi Bruno,
Use selectable instead of "standard"

Scott,
reading documentation and exploring the catalog manager application I am
actually on the path of defining same feature types and features for
"Diameter", "Height", "Width", "Speed code" and "Load code" and adding
them
to my product as "Distinguishing" features.
So doing I get the features printed out in the product details in
ecommerce
and a combo for each one of the feature is present in the category search
in
ecommerce.
I started defining the features as "standard" but they were not displayed
in
the product details in ecommerce.
Now, for the brand, since it would be good to let the customer filter for
it
also, should I use another feature or use the "Brand Name" field?
Thanks,
-Bruno

Sounds like virtual/variant products could be a good fit, you've got a
brand
name (category?) model name (virtual product) and then the various sizes
(17x175x45) and codes for the variants.
Regards
Scott
