cvdenzen opened a new issue, #4105:
URL: https://github.com/apache/hop/issues/4105
### Apache Hop version?
2.9.0
### Java version?
11.0.15
### Operating system
Windows
### What happened?
Various input fields of the "Import code to Hop" dialog show the diamond at
the right side, so the input fields should accept variables in the form ${var}.
I have set a variable GIT during startup with
HOP_OPTIONS=-DGIT="C:/data/git".
When I set the "Import from" input field to "${GIT}/Pentaho\PDIRepository",
I can see the substituted value in the tooltip
("C:/data/git/Pentaho\PDIRepository").
But when I try to import (click on button "Import") I see an error message.
Error from the "Import from" field:
```
HopFileException:
Error verifying input folder ${GIT}\Pentaho\PDIRepository
input folder '${GIT}\Pentaho\PDIRepository' doesn't exist or is not a folder.
```
This problem seems to affect not only the "Import from" field in the dialog,
but also the "Import to folder" (and possibly more).
When I fill in the ${GIT} variablein the the "Import to folder" field, I see
this error:
```
InvocationTargetException: Error importing
org.apache.hop.core.exception.HopException:
Error importing Kettle files into Hop
No group with name {GIT}
```
Remark: When I click "Browse" for the field, it opens directly with the
substituted value (but that could also be, because that was the latest valid
value for the field).
