Swapping back to that branch to give it a go ...  

Nice clean up of hotline definition.

When first hitting "Add…" The *Label* and *Description* are empty, I think we could populate them as the attribute is chosen to reflect what they will be when OK is pressed? When using "Edit…" to reopen a created hotline definition the label is filled in.

[Naz] Added setting of label value on change of the attribute combo box. I left description as is as it is optional.

That works well, however when I supply a label (when editing an action), the label reverts to "State" when I go to edit the action later.

- I was able to hit OK and save it out without an action being defined.

[Naz] An error should occur when action is blank. I can’t seem to replicate the case above. Any tips?

1. From australia.shp sample file

2. In Document Property Page hit "Add…" 

3. Choose Type "Action"

4. Choose Attribute "STATE" 

5. press "OK"

6. Error message pops up, the OK button should be disabled instead

- It was a bit hard to fill in the action using the space provided.

[Naz] Updated the Action text for be multiline to ease input.

Thanks. 

[Naz] The marker that I used is ‘{0}’, so http://www.google.com/search?as_q={0} should work. I updated the help docs to note this specification.

Cool,

Was able to configure with two actions as shown below:

[Naz] Added icons, used the same icons as the ones used in DocumentView.

Did not see that (when hitting "Edit…") it still shows up with the "question mark" icon used to prompt for information. In any case no rush, marking a tasks for stage 4.

So we have one issue with "label' being reset, going to mark it as an issue to fix for stage 4 so we can get a move on.
