BUG: Document Artifact icon NOT preserved
« on: August 12, 2007, 10:22:09 pm »
In the component toolbox there are two icons for Artifacts:

Artifact
Document Artifact

They have similar, but distinct, icons representing them.  A Document Artifact behaves quite distinctly from a non-Document Artifact under the continuing double-click insanity!

However, whereas for the other double-click confusion situations where it could be (erroneously) argued that there are sufficient cues as to the expected behaviour of the double-click - here there are none, since the distinct (document artifact) icon is NOT preserved when the item is created on the diagram!

You can't tell what's going to happen when you double-click the item...

Using an object oriented language does not an object-oriented application make...
