SharePoint Designer Custom Workflow Activity - WTF

by Bart X. Tubalinal 2. April 2009 09:05

I was writing a custom workflow activity for SharePoint Designer today (a pretty cool custom activity, if I do say so myself, which I'll post in a few days) and on my custom activity, one of the settable fields I have happens to be the last word in the sentence:

So I went to go set the field and this is what I get:

Whenever I went to set the field, the hover action over the activity added a drop down button to the end, thereby making the field impossible to set. Anyways, I'm just going to change the sentence but I thought it was pretty funny and wanted to share it.
