templates from MDG tech not shown for RTFTemplate

[Andrew Warner]

Sorry if I've raised this somewhere before. I've overcome it but can't remember how.

I have a model document and I want to assign an RTF template from my MDG technology. The problem is that the templates in the MDG technology are not shown in the list of values available for the tagged value.

They're definitely there and can be selected from the normal document generation dialogue but I have no idea how to set them on the model document tagged value.

thanks,
Andrew.

This is a known bug in EA. I have raised it some time ago. It was solved in Beta 1 and 2 of EA 8 but in the final version it is in again. So you have to wait for a solution. I have created a template where a model document with each rtf template is predefined so i don't have to set the Tagged Value.

Thanks Michael,
but how do you define the rtf template if you don't assign the appropriate tagged value?

Cheers,
Andrew.

Sorry for answering late i was ill. I changed it manually in the database or by using a template in the technology that has a model document for eacht RTF Template.
In EA 8 855 this bug is fixed but not completely. When you create a model document you can still not choose the RTF Template from the technology. But when you delete the tagged value RTFTemplate and create it again you can choose the RTFTemplate now. Strange behaviour but it works. I will issue it as bug again.

Thanks Michael,
I hope you're feeling better now. Thanks for the response I'll give it a go.
