Hi, I have 2 issues related with the formula screen:
1) every time I open the formula screen it occupies my full screen, is it possible by default to decrease its initial size? Just occupying part of it (50% or slightly less) to have an immediate possibility to read at least part of the map you are working on.
2) when I start digit the formula, FP opens the formula screen but I do not see anything, after pushing enter FP doubles the equal sign (like this: "=="). This behaviour already happend in past versions and after was corrcted. Now it reappeared. The request is jus to read immediately what I'm typing.
Thanks

    I am sorry I can not see any problems.
    Now you can ask for help in the forum and reference this ticket, maybe somebody else has this issue and can help to localize it.

    You could delete the content of your auto.properties and check if the issue still happens (make a backup to restore it after the test)

    When an error occurs in the formula, the Formula Editor window is resized to fit the additional stack trace. In most cases it results in the window being resized to the full height of the screen. The width seems to be the full width of the stack trace (on the right) and about 300px for the formula (on the left). After the error is corrected, the size of the window remains and needs to be manually changed by dragging the edge of the window.

    It would be great to limit this window expansion, e.g. by limiting the initial width of the stack-trace pane to e.g. 200px and preventing the stack trace from expanding the height.

    I'm not sure many people benefit from the contents of a stack trace. Maybe it's even enough to display the stack trace in a tooltip e.g. to an additional icon which would appear in Formula Editor when an error occurs, alternatively in another dialog launched from Formula Editor.
