I've been struggling with this problem myself. In particular I can't get the parent propertysheet management method to appear on the Views method list. Is it necessary that the subclass also be contained in the parent? In my design, there is no containment or acquiring relationship between the parent class and the subclass.

If your parent ZClass is constructed properly, you should be able to add the parent class's management tabs by setting a "view". On the "Views" tab, look in the Method list for propertysheets/[ParentClassPropertySheetName]/manage. The properties on that sheet are accessible just like any of the child class's properties.

Hi,

If I create a ZClass that inherits another ZClass, do I also inherit the latter's properties/propertysheet? From what I've read so far, I thought the answer was yes but I can't seem to figure out how to *get* at them.

I created a ZClass called "Foo" that inherits a ZClass named "Meta". Meta had two properties : author and title but neither appear to be set when I create a new Foo object.
