Layout - When does the "Create" screen appear?

System Administration Manual 3.6.1a (Ch.10 p.60)[quote]When a user goes to the Simple Edit Interface of a particular asset, you are taken to the Details screen if the asset exists, or the Create screen if you are creating an asset using an Asset Builder or Account Manager page.[/quote]


I am confused as to when the 'create' screen referenced here would appear.



I have an Asset Builder that creates Standard Pages in a fixed location and would like the end user to be able to define a short name and a long name when they create the page. The standard %create_form% only has one input box, which populates both.



I have created a simple Layout that allows for input of both fields

    Page Name: %details-F_name%

    Short Name: %details-F_short_name%

    %commit_button%


and applied this to "Standard Page > Create" using the Layout Manager, but I still only get the regular one-box input. Where then would the "Create" screen appear?

Currently, the Layout Manager cannot modify the Create screen of an asset, even though it appears in the list of screens to be customised. I'm not sure if this will be fixed in Matrix or MySourve 4.0 though.
