When using the tag browser to inspect the values in a string array tag, I’ve noticed a couple issues.
-
The item list under the value branch does not get updated to match changes to the array size
-
Double-clicking in the value cell for the array changes the display to the type and object id:
If you then make the mistake of hitting enter to get out of edit mode, it will replace the content of your array with this new string:
This does not occur with the other array tag types as the numeric types are not compatible with the string type and id description and it cannot be accidentally accepted.
