Process Flow "Instance (Current) Label" broken?

Apparently, the Process Flow option to select an existing label on an instance of the Process Flow in the model is broken:

In the model attached, the processor instance, a stock "Basic Processor" Object Process Flow, has a label "ProcessTime". It is correctly used in the delay activity, when typed in manually, but it can´t be selected from the pick list options. This is for at least 20.2.3 and the 21 beta.

20201109_PF_Instance_Labels.fsm

BTW: The Process Flow Objects still use the "old" GUIs.

Thx

Ralf

This isn't broken, it's just doing less than you expect it to.

Currently, the only thing that populates the Instance (Current) Labels menu are Assign To fields within the Process Flow.

@Ralf Gruber The Process Flow objects are using "new" GUIs that match exactly the panel in Properties.

@Matthew Gillespie

No, I was not talking about the PF activities´ GUIs. Please create a template instance process flow, e.g. ProcessFlow/Add an Object Process Flow/Basic Processor.

If you create an instance in the 3D view and double click the object, the old GUI shows.

Oh, I see, the flow's internal Instance Object. Thanks for pointing that out.
