bug

[Dennis Brown]

I hate to break in here, but just 10 minutes ago, I wanted to delete  
a custom property from a field.  I selected the property in the  
inspector (it was the first one and it was highlighted), I hit  
delete, return (did not read the "are you sure" box very carefully)  
and every custom property was deleted.  I went immediately to the  
Edit menu and the undo was available, so I selected it.  None of my  
custom properties were restored, but the field was still there.  I  
had to revert to last saved.  When I actually try to delete more than  
one custom property at a time, I can't even select more than one.

Perhaps I did something wrong (operator error), but I can not figure  
out what it could have been.  I have noticed that the IDE has a tough  
time doing the focus right.  For instance, I can select the doc  
window, click in the find field --it is outlined, then start typing,  
only to look up and see that nothing is being typed into the field.   
I have to click on it again before it works.  This has happened also  
in my stacks.  What gives?
