Could you please check if we need an message box even when the action the user
did is undo able.

The Report Designer iTeam decided that this issue is a show stopper for the
release of the report designer. Targeting to 2.3, thus.

If someone could remove that attachment - mistakenly attached to wrong issue.

> If someone could remove that attachment ...

No, removing (or even only deprecating) attachments is no supported feature in
IssueTracker :(

Comment 8 Frank Schönheit 2007-05-23 14:34:20 UTC
as we agreed in the iTeam, this issue is solved by renaming the "Show"/"Hide"
entries to something else, which does not suggest that the header/footer is made
invisible, but better shows that it is removed. /me thinks "Present" / "Not
present" is a halfway good wording ...
Comment 9 Frank Schönheit 2007-05-23 14:34:53 UTC
fixed in CWS oj14

builds, in EIS, the Environment Information System:

The strings have been changed - but I can not concur that it adequately
addresses the situation. This is something that has cost me added work on at
least two occasions and from a usability stand point is most likely to happen
when a user is creating a complicated report, often on a deadline and under
stress. This 'easy to hang yourself type of feature' is in other words it is
most likely to happen to users at the absolute worst possible time. 
Comment 14 Frank Schönheit 2007-09-27 06:26:43 UTC
In the iTeam, we decided this were the best compromise. A modal warning box is
not really good user experience, too. Preserving the content is pretty
difficult, core-wise.
Finally, there's UNDO, isn't it?
Comment 15 drewjensen.inbox 2007-09-28 04:32:26 UTC
Well - Yes there is undo
