Eclipse Listerners View Error?

Hello everyone,

I was looking at using listerners for one of the workflows; however the view when I go into adding a class for listeners seems to be a little off and I am even unable to save the new class selected (See below image, please note that the dialog box image cannot be scrolled down).

Wondering if anyone has had this problem, I have the most recent version of Java Eclipse for IDE developers installed; maybe an issue with the version I am on?

Thank you

Thank you

Hi Shivam,

This is a known issue with the IDE. I suggest to my customers to use the XML editor to add the listener instead. It’s a bit inconvenient but it gets the job done.

Thanks

A few things to keep in mind while developing workflows in Eclipse

Avoid using Ctrl+Z or Undo, specifically on user tasks
Eclipse lets you edit the same file in different perspectives - Flowable view and XML view for example. The version that is closed last is the version that’s saved. So, the recommendation is to always have only one version of the workflow open at any given time.
Also, avoid adding connecting lines that pass over other tasks. This can make tasks on the UI disappear.
