Custom check out

[jumpm7]

Hallo.
Do you think possible customize check out operation in Alfresco 2.1?

What I would like is something like this:

1) When I check out some particular content (example .wav types), Alfresco does not create the "working copy" but just add the lock to the object.
2) Alfter the check out I cannot open or save the object unless I am the user that made the check out (or admin of corse). That is: all the other users can just see the lock icon
3) When I check in again, the object will get the original permissions.

Thanks

Gianpaolo

This sounds like a custom action to me. See for example http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Custom_Action_UI. After you have created this action you might also wich to "hide" the original checkout/checkin action by configuring the action group for your the types this feature should apply to.
