For some reason, some Action block configure parameters sometimes disapear (set to Not used). It can be very damageable mainly when mandatory Input parameters disappear. For example, an Action block to sort arrays needs an input array variable to be sorted and returns an output sorted array variable which replaces the original one in the calling macro.
The problem happens when, for some reason, the name of the input array disappears. In this case, the output array variable returns an empty array which replaces the unsorted original one.
Even when testing input array size to zero in Action block and executing either Exit action block or Cancel macro actions, the execution stops but output variables are updated with their original default values.
Wouldn't it be possible to assign 2 different functions to Exit action block and Cancel macro actions in Action blocks? For instance:
- "Exit..." could imply full update of output variables with the calculated values so far
- "Cancel..." would stop Action block execution without making any update (as if Action block weren't called)
