Sorry there is nothing like static values associated to the xClass yet. The workaround depends on how you want to use theses static values. What you could do is writing some custom UI to edit/view theses objects and: - take care of propagating the value change to all objects of the same class - display and edit the value from the template instance > > Thanks again, > Joe > > Guillaume >> >> >> > >> > Any and all help is greatly appreciated. >> > Joe >> > _______________________________________________ >> > users mailing list >> > users@xwiki.org >> > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users >> > >> >> >> >> -- >> Guillaume Lerouge >> Product Manager - XWiki SAS >> Skype: wikibc >> Twitter: glerouge >> http://guillaumelerouge.com/ >> _______________________________________________ >> users mailing list >> users@xwiki.org >> http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users >> > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > users@xwiki.org > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users > -- Thomas Mortagne _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
