Re: To be under Indicators or not to be

Edmund,

I prefer them as they are under Indicators as this is where I'm accustomed to looking for them. But if we could split hairs, I'd ultimately prefer true indicators and named fields which are mapped as indicators to appear under Indicators and local program indicators (Booleans) to be under Fields. Furthermore, it would be helpful if indicators and mapped named indicators could be a different color.

Someday - maybe it's already there in 8.5 - we can press F3 and jump to the indicator definition as is done in the Java, EGL, etc. editors.

Thanks,

Daron

Ken's question about where in the Outline view to find named indicators has stirred things up a bit.

We would like to know if there is a strong preference to move Named indicators under the Fields heading so that all fields can be found in one place and only predefined indicator usage being shown under the Indicators heading.
On the other hand would anyone be upset about not finding the Named indicators under the Indicators heading any more?

IBM is listening.
