Re: [stem-dev] issues with RC4

Hi Matthias,

thank you much for helping us with the testing!

For now, I checked in a fix for the first problem reported. The fix is to disallow dragging scenarios from the STEM library into your project. I had a discussion with Jamie, but we should also discuss this with the STEM community. The built-in scenarios in STEM are mostly there for demonstration purposes. However, building an identical scenario (same disease) for each country on the planet is really not that useful. The example scenarios you can download from the STEM web site are more meaningful. We bounced around the idea of actually removing the built-in scenarios the way they are today and 1. Have STEM come pre-installed with an example project to help users get started and/or 2. Make it easier to browse and import the example scenarios from the web site, perhaps directly from within STEM.

Second issue. Can you open a bug for this in bugzilla? Since it's not a critical defect we will address it after the 1.2. release

Third issue. I had problems reproducing this one. Dragging anything from the editor to the project explorer is usually not possible. But since this one is related to the second bug, maybe you can combine the two issues into a single bug and write down the step-by-step instruction to reproduce?

The other issues are graph editor related, I'll leave it up to your guys to determine if it's fixable before the release (this Friday). In my opinion the current graph editor great, more than we ever could have wished for :)

Thanks!

Hi,

I noticed the following issues when testing RC4:
- after creating a new project and then dragging a scenario from the
scenario repository into the scenario project folder -> then double
click to open the editor view of the scenario -> then click on the top
level scenario within the editor will result in a java.
lang.NullPointerException ('see log1 and log2-files)

- it is now possible to drag a scenario from the repository into the
"Models" folder or a model from the repository into the "Scenarios"
folder - this should be prohibited.

- when a model is opened in the editor view (Designer perspective) and
one drags a graph from within the editor model window to the
"Graphs"-folder of the Project Explorer - then the whole model is copied
into the Graphs folder there. This model in the Graphs-folder can then
be used without any problems, but the point is, that I actually wanted
to copy a graph and not the complete model - beside the fact that a
model should not show up in the graph folder. 

- when opening a model from the editor window of an opened model with
the new "Display canonical graph"-option it seems that there are a lot
of new graph-files suddenly showing up in the editor view. It looks like
copies from the graph-files of the lower model hierarchy-level. After
closing the editor window and reopening the model these files are gone.

- Changes to the labels within the Canonical graph view window seem to
have no effect.

- Two feature requests for the next release of the Canonical graph
viewer: a zooming functionality and the rearrangement of the fields on
the bottom of the viewer: suggestion- move all to the left boundary, so
that it is possible to work with small notebook monitors.

Thanks,

Matthias
