BUG-Confugire Merge Module show only the last feature

Merge Modules. Contex menu Configure. Dialog Configure Merge Module/General/Feature - You can see the full tree but shown only the last name. As we have the same names in different subtrees it is very dissappoint to see only the last name.
In addition feature name in dialog not the same as feature name in the table Merge Modules

Re: BUG-Confugire Merge Module show only the last feature

Hello,

I'm afraid I don't fully understand what you mean. Can you please give us more details about your scenario (maybe exemplify)? Also, can you please send us a test case reproducing this issue?

All the best,

Re: BUG-Confugire Merge Module show only the last feature

Try to make some features heirarchy
for sample:
A1
+-B1
...+-C1
Use Confugure merge module dialog and select feature C1 from the tree. You can see in dialog after selection C1 only but it should be A1/B1/C1 because I can have just another hierachy
A2
+-B2
...+-C1

For sample: Person has the "name" and auto has the "name" too. Which name is selected?

Re: BUG-Confugire Merge Module show only the last feature

Hello,

Please keep in mind that using same title for two features may be confusing for users. So, it is not recommendable to use same title for two features. Can you please tell us why do you need to use same title for two feature?

Also, in the "Configure Merge Module" dialog you can see the full feature hierarchy tree if you expand the "Feature" combo box.

All the best,
Daniel

Re: BUG-Confugire Merge Module show only the last feature

Hi Daniel
Can you please tell us why do you need to use same title for two feature?
Exe ->Product1->Product2
Help->Product1->Product2
Database->Product1->Product2
It could be
Product1->Exe->Help->Database
Product2->Exe->Help->Database
if you expand the "Feature" combo box
Do you want to expand combo box every time when you switch to the page?
Thanks ALex
Daniel
