Modifying content-type Resources

Modifying a publication's content-type resource allows you to:

Determine which fields of a content type will be displayed (and therefore editable) in Mobile Studio. The idea is that, in general, you will want to present a simpler view of content items in Mobile Studio than in Content Studio, with fewer visible fields. A field will only be displayed in Mobile Studio if its content-type definition has a child ui:visibility element containing the value beginner.
Determine which relation uploaded images are added to by changing the order in which they appear in your mobile content types.

For general information about editing Content Engine resources, see the Escenic Content Engine Resource Reference.

To configure a publication for editing with Mobile Studio you need to have access to escenic-admin. The procedure is as follows:

Log in to escenic-admin and download your publication's content-type resource.
Open the content-type resource for editing.
If you have set several story content types to write mode in your mobile user group, then you might need to change the order they appear in the content-type resource in order to ensure that users see the right story in Mobile Studio.
For each content type in your mobile user group, mark the fields you want users to be able to edit by adding a child
```
<ui:visibility>beginner</ui:visibility>
```
element.
If you intend to allow Mobile Studio users to upload images, then you should also check the order of the relations in your mobile story content-type definitions. Uploaded images are added to a story's first relation, so you need to make sure the correct relation-type element appears first.
Save your update content-type resource and upload it back to the Content Engine as described here.
