Bug #4617
closedUsing Table Editor (see attached photo) mouse-click response is extremely slow
0%
Description
I am using Morpho 1.71 Beta 1, and testing the repairs to the MS Access Database Import utility.
Process: I am editing the columns of one table from a MS Access .mdb file that I imported into an existing data package. I click on one column, it is highlighted (turns blue), and I then click the green 'Edit' button to invoke the Morpho EML 'Tree' editor, which I then use to edit the metadata. When done with edits, I click the OK button (and EML editor closes) and then click on the next column in the table.
Problem: As I move left-to-right through the columns, response to mouse clicks
becomes ever slower. By about the sixth column, the table editor stops working
entirely.
Related problem: after several attributes have been edited, the EML 'tree' editor will occasionally stop working ('hang up') when I invoke it. this happens less-frequently than the first problem does, but does happen, in recent edits, two times out of 10.
These problems make it very difficult to edit attribute metadata by greatly reducing user productivity and confidence in the software.
