Re: [Tiles] Defining insert points in derived definitions [SOLVED]

[Jean-Baptiste Lièvremont <mi...@gmail.com>]

Well, I got it working defining the 'pgList' attribute at top level
(in the 'standard' definition) and using 'importAttribute' in the
standard layout page to put it into the request scope, for the
'multiPane' content page to use it.

IMHO, it is a bit annoying to have do define it for all pages derived
from the standard layout, whereas only a "few" use it actually. Well,
it is still better than having to duplicate the entire layout page :)

Thanks for the quick and accurate answer, regards,
J.B.L
