***Note from Migration:***

Original Title was: Undo the change in the order of the 'Apply' and 'Reset' button in the Parameter Editor window of FME 2020


Hi,

Today I updated from FME 2019.2.3.0 to FME 2020.0.2.1 in which I noticed that the order of the 'Apply' and 'Reset' buttons have been swapped around in FME 2020.0.2.1.

Initially I was trying to apply changes and by 'auto pilot' I was clicking on the right button. Unfortunately this now seems to be the Reset button, clearing my changes. Although this might be something that can be used to, I think the original order of having the 'Apply' button to the right is more intuitive, so I would like to see this change to be reverted.

See below screenshots for some more clarification;

FME 2019 (and I believe also previous versions), Apply button in (bottom) right

FME 2020, Apply button in (bottom) left

    I think it's likely to have been swapped to reflect the fact that if you open up a transformer, the buttons are always OK Cancel or Apply Cancel in that order. I can totally understand the automatic pilot thing, luckily for me my automatic pilot still opens up transformers and doesn't know about the existence of the parameter editor :-)

    Hmm, tnx for the feedback. I just checked, and found out that other software like Microsoft Office also makes use of the OK, Cancel order. Maybe it is thus something to get used to... :|

    Still I would have appreciated somewhat of a heads up on these kinds of implicit changes in the software...
