Simple Controller used as action is put to Work Bench section when updating
Hello,
I created Simple Controller which contains some requests and then saved them
as a unit action (saved selection as jmx). However, I opened this jmx file
to update and saw that Simple Controller was put to Work Bench; therefore, I
could not save since it will erase data in Work Bench section. In case we
wanna update "action", what would you do? Thank you

+1
If an additional "Save with workbench" option isn't too difficult to
implement, it would surely not hurt to have it.

Thanks Sebb. Since I use Jmeter to do functional testing as well, using
Include Controller as "action" happens frequently. Could we have an update
as feature enhancement that we can save Work Bench (like updating action for
re-susability) ? And I believe saving Work Bench function is good to have.

Yes, because there is no Test Plan parent.
But you can select a Test Plan and use Merge to add it there.

Save means it will save the Test Plan.
So if you save an empty test plan with the same name (JMeter prompts
for the name) of course it will replace it.

Yes, that is how partial test plans work.

The Workbench is temporary. It is never saved automatically.
If you want to save items under the Workbench, you have to select them
and use "Save Selection As..."

Sorry Sebb, let me explain what I am doing currently
- Create Simple Controller (containing others samplers) and save as jmx file
- This Simple Controller appears in Work Bench when opening this jmx file
*Actual*: If I update Simple Controller of this jmx and click Save, these
will be erased. Therefore, after updating, I have to select this Simple
Controller and save selection as jmx file again (overwrite the current one)
*Expected*: Whatever it goes to Work Bench or other places, after updating,
just click Save.
Hope it helps. Thank you.

If you save a partial test plan, then you need to select the correct
location before importing it.
You can save selections from the Workbench too, so I don't understand
what your problem is.
