There is no public form designer for the moment, although there was an attempt to do this a few years ago (still in the sandbox), and we do know that this is a Must Have feature, but there's no volunteer for it at the moment. Technically, this shouldn't be that difficult to do for an experienced developer (either in JS or in GWT), but our GWT developers are pushing on the new WYSIWYG editor, and our JS developers are busy on other things. And I didn't see any Summer of Code candidate good enough to handle this project, maybe this year we'll have one. Another alternative for the moment is to use the class sheet found in XE, as it creates a basic automatic form for a class, one that simply lists all properties and displays them in order. So in summary, we're planning to have this as soon as we find resources or volunteers to work on it. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
