Description Rüdiger Herrmann CLA 2011-07-02 06:24:44 EDT
The "Add Property" dialog from the Component Definition Editor is broken in several ways:
* the dialog has no caption, instead it uses a form header 
* it uses Forms to display its content which looks odd in a dialog
* after resizing the dialog, the 'Name' field changes its height (see attached screen shot)
* pressing the Tab key in the 'Name' field does not traverse to the next field. Instead a tab spacing is inserted
* pressing the Return key in the 'Name' field has no effect (I expect a dialog to close itself and accept the changes when pressing Return)

That is one ugly dialog.  Any way you could provide a patch?

I am afraid no. I won't have much spare time in the near future. I am quite busy with RAP and customer projects.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
