I'm currently playing around with the custom property editor within the web interface and I am really struggling to accomplish what I would do in 10.3 version. I will explain what I am trying to do maybe someone who is more versed in 10.4 can help me out. Basically we have a custom property called alert_vol where we specify a text string to alert on specific volumes for a specific client. This client also has two other custom properties attached to the node used to distinguish / separate them from the other ones(eg. property client = client A) . What I am trying to do is determine what volumes have which string in the alert_vol and add any that may be missing. Previously how I would do this is that I would just go to the custom property editor application and the volumes section then apply a node based filter for custom property to single out the single client (client A). At that point I would be able to scroll through the volumes and see what was applied where and copy and paste any required changes.
What I am seeing with this so far in 10.4 is that when I click on the volume property and try and choose nodes I am only able to filter based on very select things including only node custom properties as well as nodes them selves. This doesn't really work because I don't need to scroll through hundreds of nodes that aren't even in the picture at all. Further more I don't even get the point of show assignments button since all it does is redirect me to managed nodes page where I can't do anything to do with volumes at all. This is really frustrating because I built our system out relying heavily on node, interface and volume properties and now I don't feel like I even have an eye into it at all. Does anyone have any ideas? Am I not utilizing this web interface properly or is it really as limited as I think it is?
Also does anyone know if it is possible to still use the old custom property editor? Is there by chance some sort of hack way to accomplish this?
