Status Planned for future release
Categories Asset Manager

[wi 97955]User should presented with a list of available schemas on defining a custom Role

RAM working with category schemas.

If you to a community and try to define a custom role that uses a
category schema setting to limit access, RAM tries to load all of the
values for all existing category schemas into one large flat file to
put into a dropdown selection box.

If user have a lot of schemas or very large schemas then this executes
very slowly. Also, the long list makes it very hard to find what you
are looking.

Instead, the user should be presented with a list of available schemas and
after they select one they should then be able to navigate down to the
element that they want.

The current method makes this almost impossible to use.
