Hi.
I have a problem when copying actions in FinalBuilder 6.3.0.1712.
If I copy and rename an action it retains the old description, in the log, when executed.
Steps to reproduce.
1. Open any project.
2. Copy and paste an action.
3. Open the pasted action and change the description.
4. Run the pasted action and watch the message log show the original description.
Any one else with the same problem?
/Mikael

Hi Mikael,
FinalBuilder allows you to specify an alternate log title for an action instead of using the action’s current description, once the log title is set the description and title are no longer kept in sync. To revert back to the default behaviour select the action, open the ‘Properties’ tab and clear the ‘Action Log Title’ field, this will revert it back to using the description as the log title.
Regards,
Paul.
