Diagram double clicks and composite elements

[Thomas_Arnbjerg]

Double clicking on a method/attribute on a non-composite class opens the properties window for the selected method/attribute.

For a composite class the embedded diagram is opened (even though a method/attribute has been selected). One would expect the properties window to be shown if a method/attribute has been selected.

This is extremely annoying since you don't get back to the original diagram once the embedded diagram is closed.

You're right, Thomas.

The whole double-click functionality is WRONG.  Why can I be so definite?  Because it is inconsistent.

I have previously (years ago) suggested that you only open the attached diagram IF you double-click on the chain-link icon.  That way, you are explicitly saying "I want to open the diagram".

Otherwise, the normal property capability would be opened.

Submit a formal bug report so we can support it.  (but I don't fancy your chances).
