Showing tags in a couple of different places
Hi,

I'm needing to show tags in a couple of different places, both of which I thought I could accomplish starting by adding a couple of fields to the Document Type I want to tag (File)

However, when I go into Development -> Document Types -> File -> Fields and try to add a system attribute I get an error.

Here's what I do:
1. Click New system attribute
2. Choose Document Attributes and DocumentTags
3. Leave field type set to Label

No matter what I do, the attribute size field is disabled with the value -1 and I get this error:

"The attribute size must be an integer number greater than zero. Length of the attribute default value string mustn't exceed attribute size."

I'm hoping that creating a couple of fields will allow me to both add the existing tags for a File into a transformation as well as allow a CMS editor to select tags from the same screen that they upload the document.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

- Evan

RE:Showing tags in a couple of different places
OK, well I'll answer my own question I guess. I found an extremely hackish way to do it: Using the Web Developer Firefox extension, I enabled the the length field that was stuck at -1 and changed it to be 100.

That's all it took. Seems like a bug in the system somewhere. Too bad I'm too late to get a tree planted for me :)
