Title: "This note is linked to an internal element feature" -- Yes, I know
Post by: Uffe on February 19, 2016, 10:34:12 pm

Hi all,


If I've linked a note to an element feature, and then double-click the note I get an error dialog telling me the note can't be edited and I should instead use the connector context menu to re-link the note to a different feature.

In addition to the error message being a little cryptic, I humbly submit that wanting to re-link the note is not the most common case. Instead, that honour goes to wanting to change the feature that's displayed in the note.

So how about adding a button "Edit Feature" which opens the element properties dialog, turns to the right tab and highlights the relevant entry in the list of attributes, tags, constraints or whatever I've linked to? And then change the current "OK" to "Cancel."

Cheers,
