Payload in Human Task

Question

Hi everyone. I have declared in a .xsd file a person as show below:
<...>
<xsd:element name="person" type="personType">
    <xsd:annotation>
      <xsd:documentation>
        A sample element
      </xsd:documentation>
    </xsd:annotation>
  </xsd:element>
  <xsd:complexType name="personType">
    <xsd:sequence>
      <xsd:element name="name" type="xsd:string"/>
      <xsd:element name="lastName" type="xsd:string"/>
      <xsd:element name="studylevel" type="level"/>
    </xsd:sequence>
  </xsd:complexType>
  <xsd:simpleType name="level">
    <xsd:restriction base="xsd:string">
      <xsd:enumeration value="Higth"/>
      <xsd:enumeration value="Medium"/>
      <xsd:enumeration value="Low"/>
    </xsd:restriction>
  </xsd:simpleType>
<...>As show, person has an attribute of type level. In the implementation of the HT I select as inputVariable for the task an element person from the .xsd file above.
I have a custom HT (based on a .task file). When I drad the payload on the page, the attribute level it's displayed as an inputData field and not a comboBox, a selectOneChoice or any other selection component. That's ok, I just convert it to the one I desire, but, when I deploy and see the page, the field it's empty!!
How it's that possible?? The values are clear from the .xsd. and also it's a valid .xsd file.
Should I create the selection component with static (same) values of the .xsd and set the value for the payload using bindings??
Should I do something else to see what I want? Please advice me.
Any directions, docs or links to solve this issue w'll be appreciated.

Hi Dariel,
Perhaps others have gotten an XSD's enumerations to populate an ADF select one choice dropdown, but I haven't figured out how to do it either.
Guessing you've already done this, but what I've done instead is to
1. add the "studyLevel" attribute as a text field -> in the Properties tab, copy the text that is in the "Value" field.
2. add the "studyLevel" attribute again but do it this time by dragging "Select One Choice" into the form -> click the "Create list" radio button -> click the "+" New icon and manually add the item's labels and values -> click "Next" -> change the label -> click "Finish".
3. for the new Select One Choice dropdown, change the "Value" property setting to the value you copied in the first step.
