Should I be aware of anything if I use this package and also uComponents? - like .. when I have to upgrade to a version of uComponents that also includes this - should I remove this manually before installing?
Don't think the two will conflict. Only thing you'll see is two of the same menu items. Then you know it's included in UComponents :) and when you see that you can just delete the binary and it will work again.
Backend extension?
I would like to know if anyone know of an extension that will help me do this:
When right clicking an item in the Content tree, I would like to have a "Go to document type".
Selecting this would take me straight into Settings section with the Document Types tree expanded and the document type of my content, selected.
I was told there might be a module already doing exactly this, but I haven't been able to find it?
I think Richard Soeteman created this some time ago.
Just asked him on twitter with a link to this thread, so hang in there, help is on the way ;-)
HI Claus,
What Umbraco version are you using? I have some sample code it's 4.0 though. I can add that to the zip or modiffy it for 4.5. .
Cheers,
Richard
I'm on 4.5.2 - very much appreciated! ..
Was talking to one of the uComponents guys and suggested this, when he went: "well... it's a good idea .. and I think someone already did it."

Hi Claus,
Took a little while to convert the code I had to 4.5.2. Javasrcript is competely changed. You can download the sourcecode from my site .
Install instructions:
Copy bin/DocTypeExtensions.dll to the bin folder of your Umbraco Install
Copy the whole Handlers folder to the umbraco folder of your install
Hope you like it, needed to convert this code anyway to include it in Ucomponents.
Cheers,
Richard
Nice work Richard!
We will include this in our base umbraco project :-)
Gave you a #h5!
Thanks a lot!
This is just great - I've been wanting this for quite a while :-)
One more question :-)
