In EA 12, when I select down arrow behind the attribute type in editor dialog, and choose "Select type..." I get the project browse view (tree), but the actual (assigned) type is not preselected. Why not? Is this an option? Which one? If this function removed (it was there in EA 10), please add it. It makes working with attributes HARD.

I already ranted elsewhere about this strange UI. Though it has some advantages over the old editor it introduces a couple of drawbacks. In Germany we say: tearing down with your butt what you built with your hands  :-\

Okay; thanks.

I must admit that in 12 imho the UI has degraded (as least for Class Model management); it doesn't assist well any repetitive work.
