This was an strategy we used in our implementation and it worked very well: associate GUI-hints to archetypes and allow for someone to override the hints on specific templates, if needed. We decided to do that because, after observing the hints that field specialists associated to the same ar

Hi Eric, Good points. As you know, the NHS use of openEHR to date has been to specify clinical content for the iSoft Lorenzo product, particularly for a number of user-specified forms. One of the areas of difficulty has been the tension between keeping the Template as a description of use-case da

Hi all, in my opinion it is i) important to have some form of "GUI layout descriptions" that really enable smart GUI generation in the long run. If not, the whole automatic process stops just before the GUI, which is not really the best we can do in the long run I think. ii) However, it is impo

I think it is possible to make use of the auto-generation capacity afforded by templates to create a draft form, which at least removes some of the grunt work in creating components and binding them tothe the underlying data cnstructs. This can then be manually adjusted and amened to best suit the

Would also want GUI things like "hide_in_GUI" to be in a separate artifact on top of a template. It is good to hear that Ocean only did that as quick fix to meet customers requirements, which is very plausible. As mentioned before templates are great to initially SCAFFOLD a GUI, which has to be fu

Dear all, Archetypes are Documentation Patterns for clinical and non-clinical topics. Templates are Documentation Patters used in a specific context. They can be considered as agreements/contracts on what to show, store, and exchange. How that content of a Template is represented on the scre

Very interesting - maybe we could have seperate namespaces for the core tags and extensions. Could be a good compromise! While I see the advantages of keeping GUI stuff out of the template, I also see that this more and more complicated as we add additional abstraction layers. On Fri, Jun 27, 2008

I am with you on that layers are important and keep the approach more simple in the long time. As Heather pointed out, we have to be very careful not to distract the clinicians with GUI fluff from clean modelling. But for review and testing there is no doubt, that a real GUI is of value.
