enter erroneous text for existing reference
Comment 1 rachelqa99 2013-07-01 21:08:43 UTC
I have references that already exist. I want to reuse one of them. I choose reference bookmark icon.  It lists all current references under use current reference.  It is unclear what to type here.  If I type in erroneous text, it seems to let me insert it, and it chooses the first reference [ users 1].  It does not check to see if text corresponds to existing reference.
Need directions on what to type for a existing reference, or how to choose existing reference.

I can't reproduce this; maybe the UI has been fixed?

Attached is the list I see.  Typing 'ux' in the input box removes references that dont match the string 'ux'.  Typing 'sys' reduces the list to one reference that does match the box.
Comment 4 Chris McKenna 2013-09-30 13:15:29 UTC
I can't reproduce this either. Time for a close as "worksforme"?
Comment 5 James Forrester 2013-09-30 16:51:27 UTC
On review this was specifically fixed by the changes to how the references list was constructed; marking as such.
