Inconsistent Feature editing in V12

[qwerty]

As with V12 the edit window for attributes/operations has been (inconsistently, how else?) changed.

When I create a new operation from the context for a class I can start typing. Nice. Now I move with Tab to next next input field. Nice too. Now to add a new one I need Ctrl-N (it was discusses and iIRC this is windoze standard?!). Well. Now when I press Ctrl-N the cursor still stays in the current edit field. I need to cursor down and tab backwards. Well, well. Notice the New is located below in case you want to click. The buttons to move/copy have been removed. Is that a good idea?

Now I try to create a new attribute. Typing into the name and tab - ehrm, what? It has created the attribute with the name I typed and now I'm again in the name field for the next attribute. To change type etc I have to cursor down/right. And Ctrl-N again does not take me to the New input field but creates an auto-named attribute where I need to use the cursor (or mouse) to modify it. Unlike for operations the attributes have the New field above the exiting ones. Well, well, well.

In all major companies where I worked there was a test department with almost the same size of the development department. I'm pretty sure Sparx doesn't even have a test department

It sounds like you have (potentially accidentally) applied a sort on one of the columns, which would explain the different behavior between the two dialogs. I thought we had addressed that problem, but maybe there's some other contributing factor that wasn't taken into account.

I haven't been using EA for quite a while in practice. So using it with V12 was just a bit like jumping into cold water. For sure I have not changed any setting. I started with a fresh model and went through the steps described above. This should be fixed.

P.S. It seems that the sort is indeed the culprit. It is obviously saved globally and it was turned on in attributes but not operations. As soon as I turned it on in operations it has the same strange tab-out behavior.
