What prefix did you specify for your namespace in your model? Let's say you set it to be "custom" then you would access it from Freemarker like this:


${content.properties["custom:processing"]}

You don't need to be put the "." as you have in the examples that you gave.

I tried with my namespace but it doesn't work.
Do I need to add some definitions in a xml file to access to my values ?

If it's not too big, can you post your model definition (the XML)?
