Description Francis Upton IV CLA 2008-03-25 05:40:10 EDT
The PropertyDialog has a
rather blunt instrument called lastPropertyId which remembers the id of the
last page displayed, regardless of the type of resource used.  So if you select
properties one one type of resource (A folder for example), it will remember
the first property page (Resources in this case), then select something else
like a Project and you will get the remembered page instead of the first one. 
In many cases this seems desirable, but in the case were you always want to
show the preferred page, it's not.

See bug 219273.

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.
