Hi, I added a custom type “Datum” to my doc model, because I need it for a calculation in the Print Engine. But I don’t need any field of this type, I just need the custom type to be available in the Print Editor (to assign a data type to the result of the calculation).
In the SME, the custom type doesn’t appear into the list, although it is in the Json (I added it manually, copied from a test model). In my test model, it is necessary to create a field using the type, else it is not saved properly.
Is it a feature or a bug?
-
first test model: I just created the custom type, it is not saved properly (it has no field type)
datumtyp_1.json.txt (592 Bytes) -
second test model: if I add a dummy field, the custom type is saved properly
datumtyp_2.json.txt (1.4 KB) -
and once in the Print Editor, it seems my “Datum” type has not been deployed - it’s not available
How can I make the Type Definition available to the Print Editor, without creating a dummy field in the doc model?
Currently I’m using SME 7.1.2 - I can’t migrate yet (but soon)
