Make the right-hand pane on Schedules editable

Enhancement Request

Make the right-hand pane on Schedules editable.

Detailed Description

The right-hand pane on Schedules cannot be edited. In some applications, such as large-scale simulations, users would need to edit them.

I think this is a duplicate of #271, do you agree @LouYingli ?

[LouYingli]

I think this is not a duplicate of #271. #271 suggests that the right-hand pane on Schedules is in read-only mode. I think that's why I can't edit the right-hand pane on Schedules now. I have a different opinion with #271. I think we should make the right-hand pane on Schedules editable.

The values displayed in the right hand pane under edit on the schedules tab are the day schedule values that are editable in the main gui area. The values in the right hand pane are not editable because we would have to redraw the schedule view in the main gui every time one of those values changed. Also we would have to support adding and deleting values from the day schedule in the right hand pane. So those values are intentionally read only on that tab.

Thank you for the clarification. I agree that the Schedule Type Limits Name, Interpolate to Timestop, Hour, Minute, and Value Until Time in the right-hand pane do not need to be editable. Because we can edit this information in the main gui area. But the Name of the ScheduleDay should be editable. For example, as shown in the following figure, the Name of the ScheduleDay is "Schedule Day 2". I want to modify the Name of the ScheduleDay as "Office Bldg Occ Sat Day". But I cannot modify it in the OS app.

Oh ok, I see, thanks for clarifying. Yes, editing the name of the day schedule seems reasonable. Would it meet your needs if we just did that on the schedule editing tab and not in the edit/inspector?

[LouYingli]

Sorry. What is the schedule editing tab refer to? Do you mean the left-hand pane (in the following figure)? I think it may be easier to make the Name of the ScheduleDay in the right-hand-pane editable.

I'd suggest adding it right on top of the day schedule that is being edited

[LouYingli]

I see. It's a very good option.
