If I edit notes to class members using the Project Browser and the Notes window, then there is one uncomfortable thing in the navigation: after editing the note, you'll have to click twice at the next member. Why? Because first click selects the class itself, even while you click at a member, and only the second click selects the actual member.
But I think it should select what you click. Meaning no matter what object had focus previously, clicking a member should select the member.
EDIT: Actually it's even more uncomfortable than I originally wrote. Because in reality, you cannot click twice at the desired member unless you want to show the true member list window. I mean if you click the member one time, then wait some time to prevent the double-click effect, and finally click again the member, then nothing happens. Instead you'll have to make the first click on some other member and only the second to the real target member.

I'll have to play with this scenario a bit - I don't use the Notes window too much. But, I think you are on to something. The edit-in-place feature is nice, but the way click sequence seems a bit off. I've sometimes found myself performing the 'wrong' function because the clicks were not intuitive.
Anyone else have strange experiences, or is it just us?

Yeah. It's really confusing (EAUI). Just posted to Paolo's thread how hard selection can be with EA. You never know which contents is shown in the Notes when Diagram and Browse selection differ. How often did I misleading enter text in the notes and it went bananas ??? I can't count >:(
