Inputs force box wrong appearance

Hi all,

 

I'm still using 9.7.55/0 and perhaps this problem has been cured now.  The inputs force box has always been "greyed out" which makes one believe that force isn't possible.  However, actions still work ok.  I've become used to it, but it might be confusing for new users and to my thinking this is a simple bug needing to be fixed.  See the pic.

 

cheers,

Aus

I don't think it's a bug so much as "forcing" requires 3 choices (Force On, Force Off, & Cancel Force), not just 2 (Set & Reset). It's "greyed out" because you need to right-click instead of left-click. I agree that a more intuitive interface is absolutely called for here.

I agree, Flex, but if you look at the force box for outputs you will see that it is ok.

 

That is why I have brought it up, it is confusing that the inputs box has the classic Windows "this won't work" appearance, leading one to think that nothing will work, yet all the right click functions work fine.

 

Cheers,

Aus
