Page, Add multiple fields, Cannot select fields

[horstoeko]

Hi;

First of all, thank you very much for this excellent extension, which I use almost every day.

Now to my problem: Recently, it is no longer possible to use the “Add multiple fields” action (page, etc.). The fields can no longer be selected. Shortly after selecting a field, the selection tick disappears again immediately.

I would be delighted if you would look into the matter.

Many thanks and best regards

For me on v13.71.0 and VS Code 1.93, there even is nothing to select (neither on typing something into the search box):

I am using namespaces - could that be the cause?

Hi @anzwdev,
Hi @NKarolak,

today there was an update of VSCode and this extension. Now it seems to work again:

It is not working for me. I was already on VS Code 1.93, but I am not using the pre-release version of the extension.

[anzwdev]

There was a problem with fields selection after some changes made to VS Code APIs. I've fixed it in stable version some time ago, but pre-release version was left with old code. I've released a new pre-release version yesterday, which should fix selection problem, but empty list is another issue, which I am going to check as soon as possible.

Just checked in both stable and pre-release but the field selection still doesn't even show for me.
Not emply, just not at all.

Hi @erikrijn

Which version of Microsoft AL extension are you using?

[anzwdev]

I've released a new version of the extension with some changes around namespaces and symbols processing yesterday. Could you check if it is still broken in your VS Code?

Unfortunately, my issue is still not fixed in v13.72.0 (on VS Code 1.93.1). I am using namespaces. In repos without namespaces, it works.

[anzwdev]

Is there anything in the error log when you run "Open AZ AL Dev Tools log file" command?

[NKarolak]

There is one repeating error indeed, however not at the exact moment I try to select table fields:

Hi.

I just want to add some update here.

The error above is not related to this issue, it is triggered when Visual Studio is closed.

I am still working on a bigger redesign of internal code parsing functionality, which I hope will solve a few problems including this one.

@anzwdev I've just experimented within my repository. To make "Add multiple fields" work again on a certain page, the only thing I need to change is remove all usings. It is even not necessary to replace them with a full qualification (unless you want to compile, of course). Just remove the usings.
