Hi
This is the expected behavior.
I want to keep a coherent sequence. So when i change the sequence number of a
frame, i want to shift other frame in order to keep the sequence coherency.
The remaining problem is that i can't update the others frames... So we only
see the change when we select them.
Concerning the problem of accessing the parent layer, i think that i can't do
other way. You never needed to keep global information before (to the sheet
lifetime, or to the program lifetime) ?
If i let the user manage the sequence correctness, i don't know what to do in
case of errors...
I had an idea for the format of the frame legend displayed in interactive mode : i could put a
format string like "# %d : %s" that could endup with, eg "# 3 : frame title".
Regards.
Paul.

Hi
Here is progression of the sozi integration.
[all the OK stuff deleted]
- better automatic sequence number generation [1]
OK -> when adding a frame automatically find the last frame number
available, and manage the sequence ordering
Need to check the code to further comment on, but not today ;)
After reading the code I'm wondering if we really should go that road,
i.e. if it is worth the trouble and the extra complexity.
I have never been a fan of the back-pointers from object to owning layer, and
from layer to owning diagram. An object should be able to calculate it's
internal state on it's own: It even has to work without being inserted into a
layer. This is crashing with your current implementation,
but I already circumvented this in my local test version.
Releated is the current behaviour when changing the sequence order. I'd say it
is at least unusual (if not unexpected) that changing one's object sequence
number makes other objects numbering change as well. But AFAICT only when they
are selected after the first.
Is this intended behaviour or just an unwanted side-effect of the magic
involved?
HTH,
Hans
