[GitHub] [hop] hansva opened a new issue, #2678: [Task]: Dialog for creating a new Environment Configuration file is misleading

hansva opened a new issue, #2678:
URL: https://github.com/apache/hop/issues/2678

   ### What needs to happen?
   
   Migration: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HOP-4130
   When creating a new project lifecycle environment, you have the option to create a new environment configuration file (JSON).
   
   However, clicking on "New" opens up the file location with button "Open" and "Cancel", there is no "Create" button or similar, which is quite confusing/misleading.
   
   You have to enter the name of the file-to-be-created in the top path input field (right to the refrech icon), then click "Open". This is far from obvious from my point of view!
   
   (See screenshots 6 and 7.)
   
   Furthermore, in the resulting dialog "Environment Properties" (screenshot 8), you have to click "Edit" (with "Select..." and "New..." you see that the file still doesn't exist), which is again misleading imho, and confirm the resulting dialog (screenshot 9); only then the file is created.
   
   I could not find another way to create a environment config json file via the HOP GUI, which I find quite complicated. In the dialog or creating a new config file, some option similar to "Create" would be helpful.
   
   How to reproduce: follow the steps 1-9.
