Dockable Edit Profiling Attributes View

Post by shanet »

I appreciate the Edit Profiling Attributes dialog; it makes selecting multiple attributes simpler, faster, and more accurate than typing them in the regular attributes view. But it is annoying to have to open this window every time I need to use it (which is often).

If this window could be docked in the UI as a view, that would be a real time-saver for me.

Thanks!

Hi Shane,

Thanks for the feature request, I registered it to our issues list and it will be discussed for a future version. Another approach for us would be to make the dialog non-modal so you could move it to a side and keep it opened.

For now you can associate a keyboard shortcut for it in the Preferences->Menu Shortcut Keys page.

Regards,
Radu

Was going to re-request this feature when I discovered I had already asked for it. Upvoting myself?

Hi Shane,

We have this issue registered on our side, it's not high priority because it has not been requested that often.
Another approach could have been to somehow bring this functionality to the Attributes view.
So that for example when you double click an attribute value in the Attributes view we could show a component there which would allow using checkboxes and/or radios to configure it instead of using a combo box.
