    Edit Properties Flexibility.

    Status: Future Consideration
    by *Expert Elite* on ‎12-12-2012 07:26 AM

    I would like to have the ability to set up a pre selected list of properties to edit for a specific object type in Vault Pro.  For example, if I select a File and choose Edit Properties, the edit window would open with a specific list of editable properties. If I select, however, a Custom Object and choose Edit Properties the edit window would open with a different list of editable properties for that object type.  Right now, the only way to do this is with the properties grid.  I have to search through a massive list of system and user properties, highlight the ones I want and choose Edit Selected Properties.  I have to do this for each individual object that I want to edit.

    You can edit mulitple properties on mulitple documents in one step.  Select all of the documents, then pre-select the properties.....  then select 'Edit Selected Properties'.

    There are some apps that you should take a look at.

     

    DECO lets you create your own edit window for Custom Object properties.

    This should be default functionality.  Along with multi-select lists for properties and linked lists between fields.

     

    Basically, let someone create a property entry form.
