#10 Event label change dysfunctional
(Reported by Martin Fabian)
Do the following:
1. Load an example, I used the Examples > Manufacturing System Examples > Transfer Line.
2. Double-click an automaton, say TU.
3. Click the Events tab.
4. Right-click an event, say the ridiculously named "l" event, and choose Event Properties...
5. Change the "Name:" (shouldn't that really be "Label:"?) to something more useful, like "load".
6. Click OK.
7. Now I expected all instances of the event formely labeled "l" to take on the label "load". This does not happen...
Instead, the event formerly labeled "l" are shown as erroneous (the e-icon) in the "mid pane" (whatever that one is called). I have to change the label also there for this to work. If I change only in the mid-pane, I get the label-change to show in the graph window, but not on the Events tab, and I get again the e-icon for the event. So... to change the label of an existing event it has to be changed at two places...
This is Supremica version 200909171605 on Win 7 Pro x64, with Java jdk 1.6.0_17.
It would be a nice feature to allow the user to rename all occurrences of an event after renaming it, but this should be optional. Keeping in mind instantiations and aliasing, the user may well intend to change the name of an event declaration without renaming all occurrences.
