Start script after content type is changed

d_franz — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 14:16:54 GMT

Hello,I am looking for a method to define a rule to start a script after changing the type of a file. In the rule menu I only can find after creation, after change and after delete. The option that starts after a change only starts after a save operation. Many thanks in advance!

And how you gonna change the type of document?
Also your last line is confusing.

I am changing the type with the option "Change Type" that you can find in the "Document Actions". But with the default rules as I know you cannot start a script after changing the type.
A rule that is triggert by a change only starts when you leave "Edit Metadata" with pressing "save".

Hey Could you please translate those messages for me?
because AFAIK there is no such action available in alfresco as change type.

Sorry, but changing the type is a standard function of alfresco.
That makes it possible to apply types and aspects from custom content models to every file.
