    content picker and listview

    Hey guys

    I'm using a content picker in a custom section to select content nodes like this:

           dialogService.contentPicker({
            multiPicker: false,
            startNodeId: "1082",
            callback: function (contentData) {
             }
        });

    This works pretty well, but when i use a listview on the parent node (1082), the child nodes are not displayed by the content picker anymore .

    Is it somehow possible to use a list view inside the content tree but display as tree inside the dialog?

    Nope, it is the default behavior of the content picker to display a search box for nodes that are list views.

    You could build your own content picker that displays a tree instead of a search box. Or perhaps you could submit a pull request to the Umbraco core that allows you to pass a boolean to the existing content picker to force a tree display.

    However, I believe there was some discussion around the possibility of replacing the search box with a pager. Not sure if/when they'll end up doing that, but you might suggest that and then submit a pull request if you have some extra time.

    EDIT: Here's the discussion around adding a pager (aka list view) in the content picker dialog: https://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-7/using-umbraco-7/68102-list-view-prevents-items-from-showing-in-multinode-tree-picker#comment-240357
