Nest attributes of class inside container. [message #1831425]

Hi, I have the following class structure

and im trying to create a display that will list each individual context separately and then within that display each attribute of that context as an individual element (so i can add editing). Currently I have the following container structure which produces the following output

We can ignore ConfigurationContainer for now.

TestContainer is a horizontal stack with domain class test and expression feature:test

ContextsContainer is a vertical stack with class contexts and expression feature:contexts

ContextContainer is a list with class context and expression feature:context and also has the label feature:gui_name which is where Context1 and Context2 from the above image comes from.

Context name currently shows nothing and no matter what I try (including making ContextContainer free form and hardcoding a label in) I cant even get it to display anything, so that seems irrelevant for now.

How do I make it so within ContextContainer, each different attribute of the context class is displayed, and can be clicked on.

Hi,

You defined ContextContainer mapping as a list mapping, you might add a child node mapping to create the list elements.
As you want to add one item for each attribute, this will require to create one child node mapping with aql:self as semantic candidate expression, Context as domain class and feature:YourAttributeName as label expression.
Then you can create a specific direct edit tool for each list item mapping to set the corresponding attribute.

Regards
