Documentation Filter Not Working
« on: May 24, 2022, 09:47:47 PM »
Updated DmD to 2.9.3 and OS to 2.9.4 and Documentation Filter appears to be messed up. See attached for returned items for filter "dsysdate".

I can duplicate it - we'll look at it.

It's an issue with the VIEW of the database.  The Database is OK.  All the records show up as BLANK, and the Element column shows up as a row #.

It appears both Filtering and Sorting the Documentation View have this behavior.

After sorting or filtering, the editor is still "active", so double clicking and editing the Nickname in row #2 will modify whatever record is supposed to be in row #2.  So just keep it in the default view/sort when editing from the Documentation Editor grid (Add dialog and Element Browser work fine also).

I think I have a fix - gotta test it some more.  Will let you know once we figure it out.

For now, just close the filter or close the view and re-open the view and you will see your record values - just don't Sort or Filter.
