Bug (AppSheet support team it is claiming it is not a bug, but It is "by design".... (x.x)....

I hope we could get the consensus from the majority of this community member that this is BUG (or at least buddy behaviors) while the AppSheet support desk reverted to us this is not a bug, but "by design".

Simple story.  Once we change the data type to REF, File, Image, URL or other where we expected the inline system generated action is going to be attached to those files. However, we have been seeing this odd behavior for long time and have been reported to the support desk. However, as I personally reported here in this community, the support desk members (regardless of the languages they use, Japanese or English), they sadly do not understand what the real problem is even after we politely explained to them.  Finally they concluded "this is by design"....  The word we have to call everyday after contacting with AppSheet support desk is just sadly "what a bloody day today..."! All of our effort once again in vain...

There are other cases, but this is one of example.

Back to the details of "bug" as far as we believe.

As you see, once we change the data type to the ones which would create the new system generated actions, and save the editor. The new inline action is generated. However, the attaching column is unselected. Hence, we have to manually correct those every single occasion. Just tedious.  And not friendly for new AppSheet creators.

To make the story worse and complicated, after the new inline action is generated (target column is unselected). However, we reload the browser, the target column is oddly selected..... 

On this earth, in my opinion, this is perfect bug, but Google/AppSheet support official opinion is "this is what we expected and intend" which led to their own conclusions to us. 

Annoying and no hope.
