BUG report (or known issue?)

jason0816 · #1 07-15-2003, 02:22 PM

If I have the following (silly) code in a custom action GUI block, I get the options from the first list embedded in the second list.

This does not seem to be appropriate behavior.

I would have expected each list to contain a distinct set of items per the .action file.

I am running the latest evaluation download available as of 7/14/2003.

I look forward to hearing back on this one.

<Tab Name="My Tab">
<Field Name="Option1"
          Type="Combo"
          Description="Message"
          Width="50"
          DefaultValue="1">
          <ListData>
                    <ListItem Text="Option A"/>
                    <ListItem Text="Option B"/>
                    <ListItem Text="Option C"/>
          </ListData>
</Field>
<Field Name="DonkeyCheck" 
          Type="Check" 
          Description="Check if the Donkey is still alive?"/>
</Field>
<Field Name="TossIt"
          Type="Combo"
          Description="Throw what at the Donkey?"
          DefaultValue="1">
          <ListData>
                    <ListItem Text="A banana cream pie"/>
                    <ListItem Text="A whipped cream pie"/>
                    <ListItem Text="A bunch of jello"/>
          </ListData>
</Field>
</Tab>

The bug report I just added is more insidious than I originally expected. (at least in the eval copy)

All edit fields following the combo field get an associated drop list with all items that shoudl only belong to a combo box!

I forgot to attach some important info in the last post. It's attached to this one. you will need a WInZIP or a similar tool to view the contents.

The .action I modified was the ".Sampel\User Actions\NETAction\Net Action.action" file.

scrsnap.bmp is a screen snap of the dialog with the last edit (not intended to be a combo/edit) expanded...

In this you see the cumulative effect of the scope issue.

That is indeed a bug, which will be fixed for the next release.

Approximately when will the next official release be?
Or is that yet To Be Determined?
