B.J. Reed resolved GERONIMODEVTOOLS-350.
----------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 2.2.0)
                   2.1.4

Fixed with revision 704625 in 2.1.4 and 704628 in 2.2.  Show dialog and return to previous page when there is unsaved data on any page and the user tries to go to the Source page.  This forces the views to be synchronized when there are changes on the non-Source pages.

> When editing metadata in one of the graphical views of the Deployment Plan Editor (e.g. "General", "Security", "Deployment"), any unsaved changes are not reflected after switching to the "Source" view.  This might be confusing for the user, because the expectation is that they are editing a "working copy" the values of the fields would be consistently reflected in the "Source" view.   I am proposing two possible options (in order of preference):
> 1. Update the "Source" view to reflect unsaved changes
> 2. Prompt the user to save the Deployment Plan before switching from a graphical view to the "Source" view
> I will attach a screencast to better demonstrate the issue.
