Ecopath edit groups> adding a group interface does not automatically close

[carieh]

-open a mode
-edit groups
-add a group
-click ok
the interface will not close automatically. If you click ok more than once then you will end up with multiple groups of the same name. However, if you click cancel after ok the group will be created.

When you click to delete the same group later you will be prompted if you are sure you want to delete this group, when you click yes the interface will automatically close. So it used to close once you hit ok, but not anymore.

The interface will not close if it detected an error. I will wrap the 'ok' logic in a database transaction so that it will correctly roll back when an error occurs so that groups do not get mistakenly created.

After build 6.0.4.2:

If a group edit failure occurs, the entire transaction is rolled back and the form will not close, and an error message pops up.

Ok now I am just being picky here!

in version 6.0.4.6
I open the generic model, save it as carie and then add a group. So I click
-Ecopath> Edit groups
-insert a group (and name it)
-click ok
-Now you get a funny little pop-up box (I am not sure what it is for) but you click ok on that one too.
-now how do you get the heck out of here?
-I finally figured out you have to click the X button in the top right to exit, but could there not be a better way?

• I believe it used to close after you clicked OK?

After 6.0.4.6: you were not just being picky; you were plain right. New groups failed to be added to Ecospace in some cases, which prevented the interface from closing. This did not prohibit EwE from working with the group as long as Ecospace is not saved. Solved in 6.0.4.6
