Having worked with LiveCode 8 extensively now I can say
that the Property palette is far far more awkward to use thatn the LiveCode 7 one,
and I wish there were an easy way to revert to that property palette.

Absolutely, and it's actually training people to learn and use inefficient actions. Conceptually and with muscle memory! It's a pity so many well-honed, valuable time-saving features of the IDE were discarded and forgotten when updating it. An interface should be efficient to use hands-on. Improvements don't reduce efficiency. It'll be a good thing when the IDE regains some of the strengths it had.

Please QA this if you can - there are many such IDE issues but I haven't had time. I'll add my vote. I'm usually working on a tight deadline when I notice this stuff. There's another custom prop editor bug (an actual bug that makes it easy to lose the edited text) but I forget the trigger until I work with it again.

Best wishes,
