Add aspect on change of dropdown list

Hi,Currently, we have a custom data model which includes one Type (cm:folder), which itself, contains one mandatory aspect. This aspect has a number of properties, one of which we use a constraint of 'List'. On the share-config-custom.xml, we use the control template of selectmany.ftl for that prope

Hello,

such a dynamic show/hide feature of additional metadata sets is not available OOTB. You would have to implement your own set of controls / form sets that are able to react like that.
In your form configurations, you would include all potential metadata fields and have your sets set up in a way that only the applicaple sets are shown in the UI (the rest are all generated and available, but hidden via JS / CSS). You need to establish some kind of relation between the multi value field and your sets (JS event mechanism), requiring you to develop at least one custom multi list control FTL + JS and one custom set FTL + JS.
