Hi,

I have a text node and was testing different ways of constraining that node from the Template Designer.

I've found that if I select the node, then on the node properties panel go to: Value Set > On the window, under the "Terminology Service" tab, select "Snomed" and check the "Select full terminology", then save the OET. That constraint doesn't appear in the OET file.

If I go to the "Generic Valueset" tab on the same window, and input a Terminology Name and a Subset name, then save the OET, that constraint appears in the OET. Also, the node type changes from DV_TEXT to DV_CODED_TEXT, something I reported in other issue that I couldn't set the constraint on DV_TEXT to allow only DV_CODED_TEXT instances. So setting the Generic Valueset seems to be an implicit way of declaring that node as DV_CODED_TEXT from the TD.
