Description Leonid Titov 2014-07-21 07:49:03 UTC

It would be great if it will be possible to edit flag and enum fields using literal names from a structure definition.

Current behaviour:
Imagine I have an enum field. Its value is shown as a text label. When I double-click this field in a structure view, this text label changes to corresponding number and I can change this value using numeric notation. So I need to remember (or lookup over a definition file) mapping of this enum to find necessary number. 

Similar thing happens with a flag field.

Proposed behaviour:
It would be great if I caoud choose a new value from a drop-down list. So after a double-click on an enum field a drop-down list with possible values should be shown (probably together with its numerical codes), and choosing an item from this drop-down list will change the value of this field.

Similar behaviour I expect for flags field, considering multiply choose list to select several flags at once for a field.
