Tagged Values of Properties Inconsistent Display?
« on: October 07, 2021, 09:11:04 pm »
I am not sure if this is a bug or I am just doing it wrong:

When I create a tagged value on a property (in my case the property that represents an instance of an SysML block) I find EA is very inconsistent in whether or not it will list the presence of the tagged value.

On diagrams they are always listed (if the diagram properties require it).

If I initially look in the Tags tab of the properties window, then they are not shown UNTIL I double click the property and try to look at the tags there - after doing that once they will then appear in the Tags tab.

If I double click the property on a diagram (or right click it in the browser and select Properties>Properties) then the tagged values are NEVER displayed in the 'Tags' tab of that window.

I do not get this problem with Tagged Values in general, ONLY Tagged Values of Properties.

It seems like a bug to me. But are there any peculiarities of Tagged Values of Properties that I should be aware of that may explain this?

That's called EAUI (EA Unique Interface) and you better get used to it since it will change only if hell freezes over :-/

Try sending a bug report. But better have a beer since that at least will feed you.

Yeah, some of the tagged values don't show up until the element is shown on a diagram, or selected a second time.
