Error description

  • When you upload a document for the first time, the hidden and
    editable attributes are honored if they are set. However, when a
     new version of the document is uploaded, the upload window
    displays all properties, not honoring the hidden or editable
    aspect of the respective properties.
    
    For example, the CustomerDocument document object type has two
    properties: CustomerName and Location. The default values can be
    set using a private business object of type ECMDefaultProperty
    through a script and bound to the ECM Coach Control's Default
    document properties under Behavior, for example
    
    CustomerName is set to be non editable after the default is set.
    Location is set to be non editable and not visible after the
    default is set.
    
    The window that opens for the initial upload of the document
    honors this setting:
    
    tw.local.docCheckListProperties = [];
    tw.local.docCheckListProperties[i] = {};
    tw.local.docCheckListProperties[i].name = "CustomerName";
    tw.local.docCheckListProperties[i].value = "IBM";
    tw.local.docCheckListProperties[i].editable = false;
    tw.local.docCheckListProperties[i++].hidden = false;
    
    tw.local.docCheckListProperties[i] = {};
    tw.local.docCheckListProperties[i].name = "Location";
    tw.local.docCheckListProperties[i].value = "India";
    tw.local.docCheckListProperties[i].editable = false;
    tw.local.docCheckListProperties[i++].hidden = true;
    
    However, a subsequent upload of new versions of the same
    documents doesn't honor the setting and displays all properties.
