    Hey folks, anyone know if it’s possible to show a subset of TVs available to a template depending on the parent doc? I’m trying my best to develop a single template for varied kinds of content. In this case, the client has, among other things, a news clip/article section I’d like to implement without adding another template.

    For this article collection, I’ve created a handful of TVs to input data like article author, article source, etc. While I’ve created a set of chuncks and a TV to display the correct content scheme using the @INHERIT for the page output that works quite nicely, I’d love to be able to affect the input/manager display in much the same way. In other words, when a doc inside the "articles" folder is being edited, these article-specific TV inputs are shown, but when editing a doc outside that folder, these TVs are not shown. Is that possible? Is that sane?

      I am not sure if it does this, but ManagerManager is the only tool I know of that may have this ability.
