Problem launching report generator in build 849

[Dave.B]

I've just submitted the following bug report to Sparx:

With build 846, launching the report generator from the project browser tool-bar caused the selected item to change from an element to the element's containing package and then the report generator dialog would open with this package displayed as the "root package".

With build 849, launching the report generator from the project browser in the same way as above does not cause the selected item to be "promoted" from element to package. (This is useful as it does not change the selected item as a result of running the report generator.) However, the report generator dialog shows the selected element as the "root package" and then fails to produce the desired report. (The report template is emitted instead.) It needs to be passed the selected element's container package instead.

The work around is to manually select the package before starting the report generator. However, given build 846's behaviour, it has taken me some time to figure out what was causing the report generator to fail (which was compounded by the fact that I had just pasted some RTF into a note field and wanted to see how it would look in the report).
