Combination of CloneModelView and ModelMergedDifferences attributes does not work

[krombipils]

Here is a simple demo combining CloneModelView and ModelMergedDifferences attributes on a Business Object.

No MergedDifferences node is generated in TestBO_Cloned_DetailView and therefore no inheritance is applied. If I add the MergedDifferences manually to the xafml, everything is fine.

The DevExpress.XAF repository includes commits that relate to this task:

• CloneModelView: Keep ModelNodeGenerators #601

Please update the related Nuget packages and test if issues is addressed. These are nightly nuget packages available only from our NugetServer.

If you do not use the Xpand.XAF.Modules directly but through a module of the main eXpandFramework project, please wait for the bot to notify you again when integration is finished or update the related packages manually.

Thanks a lot for your contribution.

Really would like to test the new version, but I think you have to bump eXpand versions again?! The dependencies/versioning probs are somehow/sometimes a pain in the ass

yeah the update is still a bit manual but I am working to automate this bumping as well

2. ModelMapper: IModelLayoutGroup Caption is incorrect #596](https://github.com/eXpandFramework/eXpand.lab/commit/a0148d801f29ae112adfdb2d281fabb87f1773a1)

Please test if it addresses the problem. If you use nuget add our LAB NugetServer as a nuget package source in VS.

Thank you, but with the new version it is now no longer possible to use ModelViewInheritance if view is cloned in model editor. I attached my modified sample project. Instead of using the atributes I added this to my model.designeddiffs.xafml:

<DetailView Id="TestBO_Cloned_DetailView" ClassName="Solution1.Module.BusinessObjects.TestBO" IsNewNode="True">
  <MergedDifferences IsNewNode="True">
    <MergedDifference Id="@2f13170e-008a-4661-9058-57a940a38362" View="TestBO_DetailView" IsNewNode="True" />
  </MergedDifferences>
</DetailView>

Now an exception is thrown on startup: Solution1.zip
