Grasshopper Application testing #50

Open OskarScherdin opened 1 month ago

OskarScherdin commented 1 month ago

Hi Greg,

Grasshopper Application testing, observations:

  1. File path input not showing up in UI in Tekla (comparing to Tekla Component from Seb)
  2. Text from textboxes not wrapping in UI in Tekla (comparing to Tekla Component from Seb)
  3. No Apply button so apply current settings, if you accidently close application you have start over from scratch unless you saved
  4. No "Properties" on right click.. not sure if it matter, just adding it as an observation, might just be a Tekla thing anyway.
  5. Dropdown lists are longer than they need to be? (comparing to Tekla Component from Seb)
  6. Application hides behind the Tekla main window when selecting or making the Tekla main window active. Should probably stay on top of Tekla window.

Thanks for feedback! In the newest version (1.1) you can find: 1) New param for file path 2) Wrapped textboxes 3) That needs more time to properly develop this functionality. I will aim for that later. 4) Application does not have Properties. Those are related only to components, so I'm not able to make app to behave the same as component. 5) Shorter dropdown lists 6) Proper top most application behavior.

If you will find something more, please open new issue.

Cheers Greg, I will install and test. I do think (at least the way I work) that the apply function will be needed.

Great work!
