TechDraw_ProjectionGroup: Function of the Apply button?
What is the function of the Apply button in the task panel of the TechDraw_ProjectionGroup command. AFAICT the inputs are applied immediately.
Re: TechDraw_ProjectionGroup: Function of the Apply button?
I would have expected that Apply does a commit, so that a later cancel will rollback to the Aply-state. Alas, Cancel removes everything. I would consider that as a bug - which is easily fixed by removing the button.Roy_043 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 15, 2022 7:35 am What is the function of the Apply button in the task panel of the TechDraw_ProjectionGroup command.

IIRC, it used to be possible to set the values in the dialog without having the page updated until Apply was pressed. If the dialog now applies changes immediately, then the Apply button has no purpose.Roy_043 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 15, 2022 7:35 am What is the function of the Apply button in the task panel of the TechDraw_ProjectionGroup command.

I find annoying that the changes are applied immediately, sometimes I have to wait a lot of time to change multiple options because with every change it is recomputing the views and sometimes the models are big.wandererfan wrote: ↑Fri Apr 15, 2022 4:56 pmIIRC, it used to be possible to set the values in the dialog without having the page updated until Apply was pressed.

Yes, I find it annoying also. The fix will be implemented early in the v0.21 cycle.fabianinostroza wrote: ↑Tue May 17, 2022 3:49 pm I find annoying that the changes are applied immediately, sometimes I have to wait a lot of time to change multiple options because with every change it is recomputing the views and sometimes the models are big.
