Femar Group	Monday 04 April 2005 1:45:55 am When I'm creating a new content class, in the field "Object name pattern" i use for example <name>. Now I want to use only a part of the string contained in <name>, something like shorten(30). Please help me!!!

Femar Group	Monday 04 April 2005 4:43:32 am Sigh... Ekke you're right, but the field <b>Object name pattern</b> is not a datatype defined by me, so I can't change the "string length". When I add a new class, there are 4 default parameters for the new class: 1) Name 2) Identifier <b>3) Object name pattern</b> 4) Container (checkbox)
Paul Forsyth	Monday 04 April 2005 4:49:19 am There isnt a lot you can do with object names. To change this you need to modify the php class file :( Look at this bug from a while back: http://ez.no/community/bugs/object_name_pattern_should_allow_more_options paul
