Hi Rafael,

currently text box and select box are the only supported widgets for new property dialog. We will probably extend this in future releases but at the moment you are stuck with those.

Greetings, Tobias

We would need more complex means for users to configure pages, for instance selecting files from the VFS (for CSS imports, JS,
