I have a big pet peeve that was not corrected in 8.1 of Dev Studio. Situation: 1. Building an Active Link 2. Add a "Set Fields" action 3. Begin building your list of fields to set (for example, initialize a display-only form after a previous record finished processing)
Annoying Bug: 4. Once the list gets longer than the field list window can display, the scroll bar kicks in, as expected, but everytime you select a field or the field value, the view keeps resetting to the top of the list. So for each subsequent field you want to set the value for, you must... a. Click the next blank field line, after which the view resets to the top of the field list b. Scroll back down and click the ... so you can actually select the field to be set., after which the view resets again c. Scroll back down AGAIN and select the value to be put in that field. When you go to click the next line down, the whole annoying process repeats again. If there a developer studio flag or workaround to tell the stupid UI to quit resetting to the top of the list. If I have a LONG list of fields to set, this is pretty darn time-costly with all the clicking and scrolling back and forth. I suspect there is not, so thanks in advance for anyone who can prove me wrong!
