Multified dropdown in page properties

Please have look at these two articles:

1. Creating a Granite/Coral 6.3 Multifield HTL component for Adobe Experience Manager

2. Creating an AEM HTML Template Language 6.3 component that uses a Multifield

Both approaches store data in JCR differently.

Could you please provide us with the dialog of your page?

Please find the part of the xml which renders multifield dropdown.

The same xml is used across component level and works fine. The configuration is stored node wise and renders correctly on opening the dialog but when used for page properties level, stores the configuration as string array and doesn't show anything on opening the dialog.
