Xavier Dutoit	Friday 22 December 2006 10:35:31 pm Hi, The browse selection mode was there, so the code to handle it is probably still there too. That´s probably mostly a matter of modifying the templates (into extension/enhancedobjectrelaction/design/standard...edit.tpl) X+ http://www.sydesy.com
Andrey Astakhov	Saturday 23 December 2006 3:59:34 am Hi, Xavier, yeah, i've tried: i've uncommented a line <option value="0" {eq( $content.selection_type, 0 )\|choose( '', 'selected="selected"' )}>{'Browse'\|i18n( 'design/standard/class/datatype' )}</option> ih the file "class/datatype/edit/ezenhancedobjectrelation.tpl". Now i can choose "new" selection method "Browse" in the class editor, but it doesn't work in object editor: 1. Browsing starts not in "Default selection node" 2. Anyway i can browse for related object, even select it but I cannot save it. EOR doesn't show a selected object. It seems it needs more changes than a line in the template. Could you explain me, please, maybe there was a serious reason to remove "Browse" method from EOR. I just need an attribute "Image" for my articles. I'd like to have an image as a separate field, not a part of an article text. I have an image library about 200-600 pictures as illustrations for articles. It is not possible to show 200 items in dropdown or radibutoon list, isn't it? Could you advise me something?

Hi, Xavier,

yeah, i've tried: i've uncommented a line
<option value="0" {eq( $content.selection_type, 0 )|choose( '', 'selected="selected"' )}>{'Browse'|i18n( 'design/standard/class/datatype' )}</option>

ih the file "class/datatype/edit/ezenhancedobjectrelation.tpl". Now i can choose "new" selection method "Browse" in the class editor, but it doesn't work in object editor:
1. Browsing starts not in "Default selection node"
2. Anyway i can browse for related object, even select it but I cannot save it. EOR doesn't show a selected object.
It seems it needs more changes than a line in the template.

Could you explain me, please, maybe there was a serious reason to remove "Browse" method from EOR.
