Hi developers! Hi Dave!
Testing RC1. Client is Win XP. Server is Debian Sarge.
I have come across a peculiar effect while editing boolean fields. With
other fields, if you want to discard your changes while editing a field,
you hit <esc> and the original value is back (as long as you haven't
saved yet). Not so with boolean fields. Pressing <esc> leaves yields
seemingly random results.
One of the most peculiar show cases:
I click with the mouse. Value is TRUE.
1st click only sets the focus.
2nd click --> NULL
3rd click --> FALSE
4th click --> TRUE (again)
If I hit <esc> now, I end up with FALSE (!). That wouldn't be by design,
would it?
Probably not :-). I've committed a change which modifies the behaviour
such that simply clicking on the cell no longer cycles the value - it
now just displays the checkbox which must be explicitly clicked to
change the value. <ESC> now seems to do what is required, and I believe
this also has the side effect of curing the other inconsistency you
reported previously.
Thanks, Dave.
