Configurations for Objects Created from Meta Data Card Toolbar

KageDev2

Is it possible in M-Files Admin to do meta data configurations for objects created from a different objects meta data card tool bar? It would be handy to autofill some information for objects that use the feature often. I want to improve our projects object to have assignments, but have the assignments class automatically change to Project Task.

    You could use the Object Creator module and have custom create commands for these scenarios instead of creating the assignments from the metadata card. With Object Creator you can populate default values for the new objects and automatically link them to the selected source object (Project in this case).

    I would also consider doing the references between the objects the other way around: the Assignment should refer to the Project in its metadata. If you need to have a list of assignments on the Project metadata card, you can use the Managed Properties module to automatically maintain this list.
