"Recalculate New Addresses" needs at least one fix and a change or two may not be a bad idea.

  • If only one item is selected, it tries to apply the changes to the whole table. Therefore, for now, multiple items need to be selected to limit the changes to them. One of them, probably, a header.
  • Only the selected items will be changed, NOT their children. This may or may not be intended, but I'm building a big tree to represent many objects that have the same base classes. So, for now I made a new header immediately below the tree and use 'shift' select to include everything in between. Confused

Recalculate addresses is meant for groups. Selecting only one address specifies that you wish to change all addresses, because it's quite silly to use recalculate addresses if you can just edit that one entry

Do you mean that in the case of a tree, you want to only update the entries on the same node and the children and don't touch the parent node ?

Yes. I think, if we're having trees now, then it makes sense to have at least an option to update the child nodes as well.

One last thing while I'm on a "now that we're having tree" mind.
Could the items have an option to lookup and add the address of the parent node to their own? Meaning, instead of acting like a global variable, they'd act as local structure variables. Then I'd only have to worry about the parents to set them off properly. And next thing you know, it's a proper structure view...
