EDG 6.3.2.v20200409-1733R - user interface fixes/bugs

[Simon Opper]

Hi TQ folks

I have a couple of EDG user interface issues to log please.

1. a bug -   the source code editor has a bug which alters the code that is selected for copy and paste.

observation - this occurs most often when the source code panel is of a small size and scrolling is required to see all code.  When the source code panel size is quite big it can stop the bug. But if the code is log, then it can still occur.

I use chrome on windows 10.

user action -  select a block of text in the source code panel.   Copy using Ctrl- C  or via mouse click and drop down.

expected result - able to paste the  code somewhere

actual result - only part, or a completely different piece of text(code)  is pasted.   

There is some sort of transposition bug happening.

2.   the resource create forms ( property, relationship, attribute etc) all close if the mouse is pointed outside the frame when a text selection is being made.

action performed -  as in the below diagram, if the text in the form box is selected with the mouse and when trying to drag to select text, if you move outside the box the entire form closes without warning.

This is a bug as time will have been spent editing the form contents and it is all purged without warning.

3. UX tweak - the behaviour of class hierarchies in panels can be erratic

        a) example 1 -  when there is a long list of nodes in the hierarchy, such as properties and property groups. 

action performed - when a parent node A is collapsed to assist in scrolling down to find another property under another parent B; when the selected node is dragged and dropped to the collapsed node A, the parent A expands again. 

the node should stay collapsed. e.g. if there are many nodes to find and drag it creates a lot of extra work to keep on collapsing parent A.

b) when performing the action in example a - say you are at the bottom of a very long list of nodes and try to drag to the top of the list.  Sometimes you can't get there.  Using page up or page down mostly goes to the top or bottom. But not always. There appears to be a bug sometimes with keeps nodes off the screen.

I haven't tested these in 6.3 yet I'm sorry.

Cheers

Simon
