I hate to break in here, but just 10 minutes ago, I wanted to delete a custom property from a field. I selected the property in the inspector (it was the first one and it was highlighted), I hit delete, return (did not read the "are you sure" box very carefully) and every custom property was deleted. I went immediately to the Edit menu and the undo was available, so I selected it. None of my custom properties were restored, but the field was still there. I had to revert to last saved. When I actually try to delete more than one custom property at a time, I can't even select more than one.

Perhaps I did something wrong (operator error), but I can not figure out what it could have been. I have noticed that the IDE has a tough time doing the focus right. For instance, I can select the doc window, click in the find field --it is outlined, then start typing, only to look up and see that nothing is being typed into the field. I have to click on it again before it works. This has happened also in my stacks. What gives?

Not a bug. Operator error.

Before hitting delete, one must check the focus!! You have to tell Rev what to do explicitly, it can't read your mind. Deleting properties is done with the little trash can symbol in the editor.

You DO have a backup stack, right?

I was editing the custom properties of a table. I wanted to delete the most recently entered custom property, so I pressed the <del> key. The TABLE was deleted, not the property; and UNDO did not bring the table back.
