In a ZClass you can define a couple of propertysheets and stick properties in there that can be access from the instance like a "normal" property.

I'm developing a python product and now I can't reach my properties from my templates. I must use the explicity way to get to the values.
# This works <div tal:replace="python:here.propertysheets.get('properties').getProperty('name_cookiekey')"></div>
# This doesn't (which used to work when the product was a ZCLass) <div tal:replace="python:here.name_cookiekey"></div>
What do I need to do to get simple access to the properties in the propertysheets I have? I did not yet fully understand the magic of PropertySheets in ZClasses. I think, we have 2 features:
* The ZClass somehow inherits from the PropertySheets class. This way, class properties are made available to Z Instances. Be careful, this is only a guess! * The PropertySheet instances store their properties directly in the containing object. Therefore, you can access them as attributes. That's quite sure. Dieter
