What I''m working with is Events. Some events are multi-day, so to track that, I want to use acts_as_tree. The problem is this: for pretty much any attribute, I want to return the attribute as normal, except when it''s nil.Then I want to return the parent''s attribute. I''ve tried experimenting with alias_method. I can upgrade to rails 1.2 to use alias_attribute if that''s what I need to do. Can anyone point me in the right direction on this?
