I have been testing the data manager, adding our own record format to doors. I have a few issues / comments to share:
1. In the data manager, there is no direct list editing, which seems odd since the data manager and direct list editing are both new to v2020.
2. In the OIP where we are using a field set to "pop-up", a "-" shows as a separator line which works well. But in a worksheet the pop-up at the top of the window and at the cell level only show the dash and not the separator line. See attached.
3. We applied the record in the data manager to the door object type with some doors already in the file. To be able to change the value of a cell in the worksheet you have to make a selection in the OIP first, or the worksheet selection does not seem to stick - this takes a lot of extra time and defeats the purpose.
4. If a door is selected and showing information in the OIP, changing a cell in the worksheet for that door does not update the same field in the OIP unless you deselect and reselect the door (change is not updated in real time).
5. As an aside, in the data manager, what is difference between Door and Door CW?
