Description

When filling the "Join attributes by field value" algorithm dialog, you can ignore the "Join field prefix", in which case redundant fields are automatically suffixed. I think that this parameter should then appear as optional in the GUI.
I guess it should be the same for the other "join attributes" algorithms

Agreed! Will you make a PR?

#3 Updated by Harrissou Santanna about 6 years ago

I think this is a more general issue as some string parameters we described as Optional in the docs no longer appear as such in the application though still coded as optional.

  • Priority changed from Normal to High
  • Regression? changed from No to Yes
  • Subject changed from "Join field prefix" in the "Join attributes by field value" should be optional (?) to [Processing] The [optional] tag is not displayed for string parameters

Found many other examples. Flags it as a regression.
