[opencms-dev] Custom Properties dialog not working

[Tomáš Adámek]

Hey, I played with this on OpenCms 6.0.2 rls time ago, so maybe it works 
little different on new rlses, but - the only way, how could I make the 
another custom dialog to show, was:

create my_custom_dialog_clss extends 
org.opencms.frontend.templateone.CmsPropertyTemplateOne, and in this 
class is some method for checkin, if the  dialog should be showed or 
not, and if not i called super for parent template1 method. Dont forget 
to replace "old template one method" from config file and add there your 
own.

I dont know if this acces is fine, but it works for me, and as I 
remebered, I had same problems as u have now, and after all tests I 
solved it like this.
