Small Package Browser suggestion

Hi,
Sorry if I'm missing something obvious here but, what do you think
about having an extra tab in the right panel of the Package Browser
that allows to edit deploy properties?
This would permit modify deploy parameters in a more direct manner,
without going through the wizard.

Just my two cents.
Regards,
Daniel

I think that'd be great.

Oh, and the package version string and manual pre-requisites too please !

You can right click over the package in question in the Packages pane and
choose Properties. This brings up an inspector on the package which allows
you to drill down into the image stripper and set the deployment properties.

Great.  I obviously missed something obvious ;o)

Thanks Andy,

True, but that's a real pain to get at "foreground" properties.

BTW, there's a bug in this area; if the imageStripper/stubClassFile is set to
the name of a file that doesn't exist, then you can't change it.  The only
workaround I've found is to create a temp file of that name, change the setting
and then remove the temp file.
