Bug: Data Frame > Delete Columns/Rows dialog > Empty tab

[Rockjunior]

While testing @ARMSTRONGOPONDO PR #10263 , I encountered a bug in the Empty tab of the Delete Columns/Rows dialog. The dialog resets itself after clicking the Script button, and when the same steps are repeated and the dialog is run, an error occurs.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Load a dataset.
2. Open the dialog: Data Frame > Delete Columns/Rows > Empty tab.
3. Select the Rows Almost Empty checkbox.
4. In the receiver, select one or more columns to ignore.
5. Click the Script button and check the generated code (the code appears correct).
6. Return to the dialog, notice that the dialog resets itself.
7. Re-enter the same selections and click OK/Run.
8. An error occurs, as shown in the screenshot below.

Expected behavior

The dialog should retain the selected options after clicking the Script button, and running the dialog should execute without producing an error.

@lilyclements @rdstern I cannot fully confirm whether the changes introduced by Armstrong Opondo are the cause of this issue, but it seemed important to report it while testing the PR.

@Rockjunior this is great! Thanks for reporting this. Can you try updating your databook and see if this issue still occurs?

@Rockjunior thanks for the detailed review, during testing I was using the latest version of the databook which is why I didn’t encounter the error could you please update your databook as suggested by @lilyclements and check again to see if the issue still occurs? Thanks
