Hi,
I would like to define a custom selectbox for embedded objects in order to set their width.
But I can't achieve such a thing.
Is there someone who could explain me how to proceed ?

At present I made this:
In extension/ezoe/settings/content.ini.append.php :
[embed] CustomAttributes[]=test
In extension/ezoe/settings/ezoe_attributes.ini
[CustomAttribute_embed_taille] Name=Taille Title=Titre Type=select Selection[] Selection[100]=100x100 Selection[200]=200x200
As I want to display the object (an image) in the edit interface (in the admin2 interface) I did an override in the admin siteaccess:
[embed_slideshow] Source=content/view/embed.tpl MatchFile=content/view/embed_slideshow.tpl Subdir=templates Match[class_identifier]=slideshow
and I placed the slideshow.tpl template in design/admin2/override/templates/content/view/embed_slideshow.tpl Now I have a beautiful selectbox named «Taille» ;-)Question: how do I fetch the value selected in the selectbox ? What's the name of the variable ? $object_parameters does not contains this value, neither $test nor $taille, etc....
Thinks for your help.

$object_parameters is the key of the success ;-)
But this hash does not contain the selected value of the custom tag when we are in edit mode. The value is available in preview mode only. Therefore the first image (I fetch the first image of the slideshow only) is not display in edit mode.

You are too good with me Nicolas ;-)
Sometimes, when I meet a problem which I can't solve after having looked well, I need to post to stand back. The only fact of writing my problem advances me.
Ggiven the hours to which I post, I should not disturb many people ;-)
Cordially,
