Discussion items
Fixed since last meeting:
- User dictionary now works
- Text Editor commit problems fixed
o In the past (e.g., in OE-2.000), after you added a new synonym and clicked Commit, the synonym editor (with a place to add a Name and Xrefs) changed back to the synonym display, showing the synonym name with the Scope under it and (if the synonym was in red) the little fixer tool icon. In 2.1-b7, nothing visibly changed when you click commit--the synonym editor stayed open rather than changing to the synonym display, so it looked like the edit wasn't committed. I have fixed this.
o Fixing this also turned out to fix Harold's problem, where an out-of-date perspective was making his Text Editor erroneously claim that there were uncommitted edits. (However, keep in mind that because perspectives are serialized binary files, they can get out of synch with newer OBO-Edit versions. If you are experiencing new problems with OE, it's always worth trying the experiment of renaming your config directory (and letting OE create a new one) and seeing if that helps.)
