(
NOTE: This is the info I sent to Support but thought I'd see if anyone here has experienced this.)
I have what we think is a bug in v8.0 but I’m not really sure. I’m going to try and describe it the best way I can and I’ll include a screen capture.
What’s happening is when a user is working with classes, the title of the class won’t display the title entered in by the user. The user is working in the Logical Diagram “Package 1” which they created and has 3 classes in there. For example, if the user enters in the title of say Bob from the existing title, the class doesn’t reflect this until one of two things. One, if there is multiple classes in the diagram and they change another one however this only happens on certain ones, not all of them do it. Two, if they save the project, close and re-open EA they reflect the updated info.
What’s really strange is its inconsistent, there have been times where it’s worked just fine but most of the time it doesn’t. The user is working with a local .eap file, no repository or versioning that we have set up. I’m wondering if maybe it’s “locking” the items in some way until it’s saved. What brings me to this is that we’ve also seen it not allow the user to save and the only way is to exit the application or it won’t allow them to add any more classes or other objects until it’s saved. :-?
The items (classes in this case) will immediately reflect the changes in the Project Browser when the diagram doesn’t.
According to another user v7.5 doesn’t do this. It will allow you to change the names over and over and continually reflect the new change.
It’s kind of hard to explain without actually seeing it and I do apologize. I’ve been combing through the list of changes on the website but can’t seem to find anything that is related to this.
Ok, maybe I won't be inserting any images. Can't seem to figure out how.
