If I want users to be able to see only the custom document types property, what should I do?
I presume you are talking about File->New->Document showing only custom document types. If so, then deleting the existing document templates located in Templates cabinet.
If you are talking about Import feature, then you will need to either define Preset or configure import component xml and define your custom types there.
When Users Create or Import Documents, users should only be able to see Custom Type's Attributes. Do we have to do make any xml changes to hide ?
Yes, there is a section in the import xml to specify types to be available. For create, I have already specified the procedure.
I understood about hiding the type during the Dcoument creation or Import Process
For example when you are creating the document
> you have to enter metadata, we want users to be able to see only the metadata tied to this particular type
Approver, Date Submitted ,etc...
NOT be able to see Title, Subject, etc..
Please look at the xml before you ask more questions. Yes, you can hide attributes by changing config settings in the xml.
We were able to hide them through Composer.
