Hi,

- A property of an object cannot be the "abstract object" of a content type (It's hard to explain, so I'm doing my best here). I mean, if you can refer a content type instance (an existing object) as a property, you cannot refer the content type itself as one.
- If you want to be able to set objects (like documents, spaces …) as a custom:myProperty of an aspect, you have to use property type "d:any".
If you want to restrict this "d:any" to the objects of your custom content type only, you will have to write a custom constraint.

Hope this helps
