Bug by using bullet points in notes - Regression !
« on: September 19, 2014, 12:50:16 am »
Hello,

I've found a regression in v11 and v11.1 of EA.

When you put bullet points in a note of a package for example (anyway, it's true with any kind of element) and try to generate a document (whatever the format) using any template (for example, the system template "model report"), EA is immediately going to stop and you receive a windows message saying that "EA has encountered a probleme end has to close..."
I've opened with EA 10 the .eap file created under EA 11 and the generation of document goes well without any problem...

Could you confirm that's a bug and tell me when it will be corrected. Indeed, we won't migrate to the new version if this is not corrected : we have too many existing elements with bullet points in notes and we are using very often document generation for users validation for example.

By the way a suggestion/improvement about bullet points and numbering : It would be great to be able to nest them on more than one level.

Thank you for your support,
Vincent Wilmet

This is a user forum.
I'm using EA 11 and have not encountered this problem.

To answer your question try the "Report a Bug" link at the bottom of this page

As for the nesting of lists, see for example
Feature request: Note lists indentation
note editor
Orthogonality rules
Position and Team disestablished, thanks austerity.

Please note, I've encountered and reported another bug with bullet points in a notes field.

When generating a .pdf file from a diagram, Notes fields only display the first bullet point. All subsequent bullet points are discarded.
