Stefan:
I still couldn't get it to work with my two panels, so I downloaded a clean copy of the SDK Info kit and grabed the folder GenericPanel from the samples folder. I duped it immediately and changed the names on the two folders to Test_One and Test_Two.
I went into each manifest.xml and in the first I changed two lines:
name = "test_one"
label = "$$$/Custom/Panel/CS6/Label=Test One"
and in the second to:
name = "test_two"
label = "$$$/Custom/Panel/CS6/Label=Test Two"
I changed the dates in both (adding a 02 and a 03 to the month in each) and closed out the files.
In the properties.xml files I edited the label lines:
<xmp_schema prefix="custom" namespace="http://my.custom.namespace/" label="$$$/Custom/Schema/Label=Test One Properties"
and
<xmp_schema prefix="custom" namespace="http://my.custom.namespace/" label="$$$/Custom/Schema/Label=Test Two Properties"
I also deleted some of the property choices in the second properties file so I could tell the difference between the two.
Dumped them into the 4.0/panels folder and started up Photoshop. Opened an image, went to File Info and fouund that both panels have tabs that say "Test One" and both had subheads on the panels saying "Test Two Properties" (although the panels themselves had different property elements -- one with the full generic and the other with the abbreviated one where I had cut some properties to make sure it was seeing two different panels which it is).
Is there anything wrong with my methodology that you can see?
Thanks.
