The xml node.

Each node in the wizard's tree is a node in your file, right?

Each time you click on a node it builds the wizard for that node.

It loops over the attributes in the node, and looks in the xwd to see how to edit the data for each one.

This is what I've been getting at.
What object produces the wizard interface?

At this point I don't care if parameters are undefined.
What do I add where to just say add a text field to a wizard?

And you've got these things in place?

The new attributes in the xml payload defined in newNodes (and confirmed they are there by debug inside xerte?)
The items in the xwd's section for imageViewer?
Closed and re-opedned the wizard to reload the xwd?

Ah, add those attributes to the payload in the newNodes section, so when you add a new daveImageVeiwer, the xml is added with those params present.

The wizard loops over all the params in the xml and says 'how should I edit this data?', and skips ones it doesn't have info in the xwd for,

And the wizard will automatically reflect?
I tried adding hard code in template.xwd and I just get some replaced with others marked undefined.

    <name type="TextInput" label="Page Title"/>
    <align type="ComboBox" label="Align Text" options="Bottom" width="100"/>
    <url type="media" label="Image"/>

    <text type="TextArea" height="100" label="daveText"/>
    <prompt type="TextArea" height="100" label="daveText"/>

  </imageViewer>

Easy enough.

I'd work from Image Viewer as you suggest. Adapt the template using some hard wired text to start with

Add the params to the image viewer part of the xwd, so you have data.

Access them the same way the other params are being accessed in the image viewer template, and switch out your hard wired strings for the {data.long.path.to.param}

How difficult will it be to fuse 2 items?

I'm trying to make a template page that has the Image Viewer occupying the up area with the Model Answer in the Lower.
I think I can work out the template itself, but not sure how to adapt the Image Viewer Wizard to include the Model Answer params.
