Erik Weinmaster	Tuesday 12 October 2010 6:44:39 am I have an idea for the 'Object Relation' datatype. There needs to be the limiting classes array when a user is selecting the object to relate. The fact that 'Object Relations' datatype does allow for a limiting class array is great, but I find its also needed in the 'Object Relation' datatype as well. I've already modified 'Object Relation' to incorporate this, which is mostly just a hybrid of 'Object Relations' and 'Object Relation'. If anyone from the Exponential Development Community wants this, I'd be happy to share.
Gaetano Giunta	Tuesday 12 October 2010 2:30:30 pm You can probably find in the issue tracker more than one request for this kind of functionality. A good place to post your patches imho. Btw, I think that the object-relation should plain go away, and the "object-relations" should instead gain a "max-allowed-objects" value to be set per-class, so that it can do single-relations too.
