Extension tools: Dimensions initially not nested in View

[Roy_043]

The dimensions created by the Extension tools are initially not nested in the View. See image. Clicking in the view fixes this. Not a big issue, but confusing none the less.

@wandererfan: The issue can be solved easy, see CommandCreateDims.cpp

Code: Select all

676    //Horrible hack to force Tree update
677    double x = objFeat->X.getValue();
678    objFeat->X.setValue(x);

Is there no better solution ? Shall I make a PR ?

"updateActive()" after "commitCommand()" might do it and would look nicer, but might introduce an extra document level recompute.

The trick is to cause objFeat's view provider to execute claimChildren. There is probably a cleaner way.

"updateActive()" after "commitCommand()" might do it ...

... sadly, does not cause anything.
