Description Jesse Glick 1999-06-26 23:56:07 UTC 
Form Editor could install a clipboard convertor, so that when someone copies a class that is a subclass of Container (really, any InstanceCookie node), a paste type is created to make a form data ob
ject consisting of a form extending that container class, pastable e.g. into a data folder.

This would make it really easy for people to use their own container superclasses.

Target milestone -> 3.3

Target milestone -> 3.3.1.
Comment 3 Tomas Pavek 2001-12-07 14:36:47 UTC 
Using custom superclasses is done by other means (using a 
general "bean form" template). I think this kind of copy/paste 
operation is rather extraordinary...
