What do you think of the automatic checkbox in general?

  • Check the box
  • Define an order
  • Uncheck the box
  • Apply and close the dialog
  • Re-open the dialog
  • -> The box is automatically checked again, without user interaction!

Should it be a bug by itself?

#8 Updated by Harrissou Santanna over 8 years ago

I'm not sure it should check automatically (according to "is there an expression set?"). If I uncheck the box, it means that I don't want to use the expression, it shouldn't get checked next time I open the dialog.
You may test an expression order and then decide to deactivate it (but want to keep the written expression, may be for further purpose). It should behave as any other checkbox (eg, labelling)

#9 Updated by Sebastian Dietrich over 8 years ago

I see we think into the same direction here and I openend #14323 for this issue.
