Sweet! I got it working. Thanks Laurent.
Now I am trying to figure out how to make a richtext area, dropdown menu, or a checkbox list using an at binding...
Anyone have any idea how to do any of this stuff?
MODx 2.0.6
PHP 5.3.3
MySQL 5.1.50
i’d tell at bruno for this with autotag and he answer me :
I’m trying to implement TV-input-types, not only xtypes.
Than you can use TVs with input-options and all that, as I did it for xdbedit.
The third parameter is then a TVname, to get the right input-type.
But it will take a while to figure that out.
You have to use an ext-updater or the autoload-property to load and run the scripts from TV-input-types.
Interesting, here i go to download xdbedit
Also wondering what would be the faster way to hack this together-- custom DB tables to the ’rescue’ !

I wonder if the same is true for simply adding a richtext field? Are we limited to the extjs xtypes? I can get a combo box to display by using the xtype: ’modx-combo’, but can not fill it with options.. I can not figure out what the modx xtype is for richtext.. Any help?

for richtext, there isn’t a special xtype. We have to apply the richtext-editor after creating a new item-block to the texarea.
I think we need to create a new customTV-input-type which we then can bind to the multiitem-field.
When I release the next version of multiItemsTV you can also use richtext-TV(tinyMCE) as input-type, I hope.
dropdown, imageTV, checkboxes and that are working allready on my test-server.
Wow, I’m really excited to see that many others are getting good use of this! I wonder if Drag & Drop sorting is a possibility? That would (IMO) turn this in to the ultimate TV!
yeah drag/drop would be nice. but I have still problems with dragging, when the scrollbar is moved a bit.
Did you try to drag the blocks on the manager-start-page when scrollbar is moved a bit down?
Maybe its the same reason that for example grid-menues are not on the right place when we move the scrollbar.
I have to dig in that deeper before I can get drag/droping work correctly.
Or has someone found solutions for this issues?
another idea is to show the items in a sortable grid, where you see per default only one main-field (title), if you have imageTV-field perhaps also a preview-image.
When you add or edit an item it opens a new window with a form for your item-fields.
