usage of action and setText for a component

[mkornatzki]

Hi,

i guess the following behavior is a bug:

1. i have a checkbox and set a text.
2. adding an action removes the text (OK)
3. i want to set the text with the property editor. the text gets set before the action. it should be set after the action to work!

regards,
michael

That is not a bug. It is working exactly as intended.

If you have an Action assigned to the checkbox, you need to change the "name" property of the Action in order to change the text of the checkbox.

i only thought that if i can set the text in the property editor after assigning an action then the text should be inserted in source after the action otherwise you didn't have to delete the text if one add the action.

Changing a property updates it in place and does not alter the order of assignment. You can try deleting an re-adding either property.

You can also change the order of assignment in the source, and it will be preserved during subsequent edits.
