Description Alain Le Guennec CLA 2011-11-10 12:07:13 EST 
The show/hide content dialog is limited when it comes to dealing with all kinds of properties (ports, parts, references, values) when the properties compartment is also visible.
In that case, there is no single appropriate compartment to display such properties (they could be put either in the general "properties" compartment or in the more specific corresponding compartment).
-The result of showing such properties is to put them in the general "properties" compartment, not in the more specific compartment, even if visible.
-The result of hiding such properties only hide them from the general "properties" compartment. If there were shown in other specific compartment, they are still shown there afterwards.

One possible way to disambiguate the situation would be to add the compartments as intermediary nodes in the tree, with all applicable elements underneath the compartment nodes (elements that can appear in several compartment would appear several time in the tree, so that one could choose precisely what to do).
Note that this is slightly similar in principle to bug #362991.
