Jan,

From Item Attributes Pane (Ctrl-4) look at Attribute-Default Child Template here you assign a Template to be created via the Insert key. The Template you want to assign must already exist as a Template to be available in the pop-up list.

For example:

Create three Templates - Year, Month, Day.

For the Template - Month assign Attribute-Default Child Template value to be Template - Day.

When an Item is created from Template - Month, and with focus on this newly created Item - Month, the Insert key will create a new child Item derived from Template - Day.

Taking this up one level, for the Template - Year assign Attribute-Default Child Template value to be Template - Month.

When an Item is created from Template - Year, and with focus on this newly created Item - Year, the Insert key will create a new child Item derived from Template - Month (but it will not have any children (Days), but it will have the ability to create (Days) via the Insert key).

If you want Template - Month to have structure, you could populate it with (31) Day Items, then Delete the unneeded Day Items upon use.

Here, the Template - Month could still have an Attribute-Default Child Template value of Template - Day.

Not sure that we need a Template - Year, it seems more like a Folder.


Or, I could be way off base...
