[TYPO3-english] Cropping a filelinks module

[Urs Bräm]

Hey Enrique

with me, it does work. I have set
tt_content.uploads.20.itemRendering.20.1.cropHTML = 2|...
in an extension Template after all the other TS

and instead of "file.xls"
I get "fi.." (which might not be what you need?)

Are you familiar with the TSOB? There you can check if the setting kicks in.

 >              MAIN<  tt_content.uploads
 >              MAIN.20.itemRendering.20.1.cropHTML = 16|...

I think applying the TS to the marker you've copied the object into is 
only necessary with temp.-objects. You should be able to write into 
tt_content directly.

You can also always extract the entire TS Block for uploads from 
css_styled_content, place it in an Ext.Template and fiddle there.

Regards
Urs
