Operation properties in new Beta
« on: November 04, 2005, 12:42:03 am »
I like the parameter shortcut as it's implemented in the new beta. But still I have the desire to see the contents of the Behaviour tab inside the General tab: When selecting an operation, its behaviour/init code should appear right the way all others (parameter, return type, etc.) show up. The 2nd Save button would then be superfluous. And it saves a lot of clickediclack when editing.

I've gotta go with Thomas on this one all the way!

This is one of the best features of 6.0 that I have come across so far.  When coupled with the copy button,  overrides are now much easier.

One teeny weeny ask tho.  Could we have the reorder "hands"  on the General page as well.  The default sort doesn't suit my particular brand of thinking.

Also, why does copy take me to the "Pre" page????

The "reorder hands" are removed when element features are sorted by name.  To get them back you can turn off this feature.  Uncheck 'Sort Features Alphabetically' on the 'Objects' page of the Local Options dialog (Tools | Options)

As for going to the "Pre" tab, it looks like it's trying to go to the (now nonexistant) parameters tab.  Should be easily fixed. :)
