Hello,

I've added three attributes to an instance of the Repository module and can get them to display without a hitch. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to set the width of the attribute drop-down menus like I can with the category drop-down.

For example, the relevant HTML from my header.html file looks like this:

    <TD CLASS="breadcrumb" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top">
        [LABEL:GradeAttribute]<br>[ATTRIBUTE:Grade]
    </TD>


The relevant XML from header.xml looks like this:

    <Object>
        <Token>[ATTRIBUTE:Grade]</Token>
        <Settings>
            <Setting>
                <Name>CssClass</Name>
                <Value>normal</Value>
            </Setting>
            <Setting>
                <Name>Width</Name>
                <Value>120</Value>
            </Setting>
        </Settings>
    </Object>


Am I missing something? Is the Width setting not supported by attributes? If not, where is the default width of 100px set?

Thanks!

Currently you can't set xml settings for individual attributes, you can only set xml settings for ATTRIBUTES which are applied to all attributes.

So, the header.xml file can contain:

    <Object>
        <Token>[ATTRIBUTES]</Token>
        <Settings>
            <Setting>
                <Name>CssClass</Name>
                <Value>normal</Value>
            </Setting>
            <Setting>
                <Name>Width</Name>
                <Value>120</Value>
            </Setting>
        </Settings>
    </Object>

Which will set the width of ALL attribute dropdown lists in your header to 120px and the cssclass to normal. I believe the ability to set xml settings on individual attributes is on the 'enhancement' list for the next release.

Thanks, Steve! The ATTRIBUTES token works as you suggested. I'm looking forward to the next release---and the .NET 2.0 source whenever it appears.
