Hi All,

Going through Jeff Potts' SomeCo example from his Developer Guide, I have created (among others) these two types:

<type name="sc:marketingDoc">
&nbsp;&nbsp; <title>Someco Marketing Document</title>
&nbsp;&nbsp; <parent>sc:doc</parent>
&nbsp;&nbsp; <properties>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <property name="sc:campaign">
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <type>d:text</type>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <multiple>true</multiple>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <constraints>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <constraint ref="sc:campaignList" />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </constraints>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </property>
&nbsp;&nbsp; </properties>
</type>
<type name="sc:whitepaper">
&nbsp;&nbsp; <title>Someco Whitepaper</title>
&nbsp;&nbsp; <parent>sc:marketingDoc</parent>
</type>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

And in my config-custom.xml file, a rule says display campain for marketingDocs:

<config evaluator="node-type" condition="sc:marketingDoc">
&nbsp;&nbsp; <property-sheet>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <show-property name="sc:campaign" display-label-id="campaign" />
&nbsp;&nbsp; </property-sheet>
</config>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

So…  a marketingDoc has a campaign property (list) and a whitepaper is a marketingDoc. Why then, when I create a whitepaper, don't I see campaign? I thought there was inheritance in effect here?

Thanks for any advice!

Rob
