TV like "parent"-field in resources

    Hello,

    not that important, but interesting (maybe not just for me):
    There is a field called "parent" in every resource, where you can simply choose a resource from the tree left.
    Is it possible to make a TV behaving like that? I think it would be great if you want to link to another resource, for a second part of an article, for instance. Of course there are several other ways to do this, but I think it would be nice.

    Does anyone know more about that?

    Thank you,
    stetus

      Pretty sure that could be done by just extracting the right class from the core classes... And I can definitely see a use for it too!

        I’m interested in it too.

        The xtype seems to be modx-resource-parent, but I’ve got no idea how to create an tv out of it..

        @Mark H.:
        What do you mean by "class"?
