(SC-CEN-2) - Layers saving procedure is confusing

[manolodd]

I've created new layers from scratch: OSS component and OSS projects. OSS project is parent of OSS component.

I've created two entities of type OSS components. The platform, automatically set one of them as parent of the other and viceversa. However they are both of type OSS component. The should have not parent as they don't belong to any OSS project at this stage.

I'm not able to change it.

Update: it is not a bug, but a confusion in the procedure. By default the field "parent" shows the fist element of a list of potential parents. And I was confused. The procedure is:

• Choose a parent from the list.
• Click "add parent".
• Clic "save".

It should be:

• Choose a parent from the list.
• Click "add parent".

And by default, the list should show something like "choose a parent". To avoid confusions.

I'm changing the issue to "enhancement"

Regarding the behaviour, the save behavior for all the platform is the same:
1.- the users made all the changes in one object
2.- the user click on the Save button

We choose this option in order to minimise the calls to the sever, one when the user saves instead of for every change.

There is only an exception for this, the contextual information in the layer form. The user can save the modifications in one contextual information (using also the button save).
