I was wondering if it would be possible to make a shadow copy of a document. Like copy a document so it just sits in the tree and is updated with data from the orginal document....

Anders,
Not tried this but as a thought you could create a copy make sure the check box Relate copied items to orignal is checked. You could create an action handler that could handle update / delete etc and in the handler for the document check if it has relations if it does then get the related item and update its content.
You may need to create a separate document type for it and in your actionahandler only for that type do the relation check else you will for every document type do a relation check. There may be other issues but you wont know until you try :)

Anders,
Save you some digging in the docs umbraco.cms.businesslogic.relation.Relation.GetRelations(System.Int32) is the call where int is the node id.

Got me started thinking. What if i made a new documentype that only has a property which document that is related to it. On on that documenttype I make a user control that grabs the specfied page and render it as would be an exact copy of the page...
That might even be a better way to do it, as it can be confusing that a page can be edited but when the "master" is updated that page also changes...
Anyone done this before?
