Facility Control

Hi all, 

I'm encountering an issue with Dashboard where after applying changes to text boxes/drop down they become read only and can't be changed to anything else. This also happens when using creating the Default Parameter; if I create as Default it's read only, however if I create a text box I can use it right away but once I edit it become read only.

Recently I deleted a lot of parameters that had this issue and remade them which fixed the p but this issue has resurfaced.

I'm using an external XML for the data source.  Dashboard version 9.16. 

Can you share a snippet from params XML for the parameters in question? 

Depending on the Type, Constraint and Widget Hint, the params may behave unexpectedly. They are sometimes attempting to snap to a specific widget type defined. Although it could also be a bug like you say.

Sure thing, here's a handful of parameters I've noticed are behaving oddly. 

Thanks for your help!
