I could reproduce it following those steps. Thanks, I'm working on
this strange bug.

Hi. I couldn't reproduce the bugs you mention. Which link are you
clicking on? There are two links to django docs, in metadata options
and field edition. I just tried both and work fine. Which browser are
you using?

Thanks for the feedback.

When you create a field you can edit it by double-clicking it. In the
edition dialog the system autocompletes the field as you type. I
thought that it was faster than choosing from a combo because you
usually know which field you need. In case you don't the whole list
appears when you type "field" (or just "fi" actually)

Methods are also editable the same way but you don't get completion.
On the other hand, the system validates the arguments. For example,
you can't have any more arguments after a keyword argument (**) and so
on.

How could I make field and method edition more "obvious"? Thanks for
the feedback!

Hi Rafael.

Sorry but I never used Rails, I thought scaffolds were something
different. Could you please explain your idea a little?

Anyway, I think a graphical interface helps you see the relevant
information clearly and hide the bits you don't need. It also helps
you sketch ideas quickly. I'm very used to CLI (I use debian and coded
askani in vim) but I believe that a GUI really makes a difference.
