Custom Attribute Questions

Two questions.

First once, you add a custom attribute to the project definition, it does not seem possible to change the type or remove it, is this something that has to be done in the DB at this point?

Second, is there a way to use an enumeration for custom attributes. I don't want a free form field.

Thanks,
Jake

The type cannot be changed because that would imply an update to existing values of the attribute, which we current do not support.

You can define a new enumeration and use its identifier as the attribute type. (See the predefined priority/severity enumerations as an example.)
