Hey, guys. Unfortunately, SP17 is still having big problems with FogBUGZ and "snippet expansion" (which is just basically some Javascript that replaces text at the cursor position in a multi-line edit field with other text -- it's abbreviation expansion for boilerplate).
You can see this yourself by signing up for a free trial of FogBUGZ at http://www.fogcreek.com. Or, if someone will contact me, I'll be more than happy to create them an account on my FogBUGZ system so that you can see this for yourself. Or, if you'd like, I'll send you a webarchive, or a movie, or whatever to show the effect.
What happens is that if the expansion is done anywhere but at the very start of the edit field, the field goes blank or gets corrupted. The mouse won't click in the field, and sometimes you have to quit OW. If you type, your text will often appear backwards.
If you hit the "+" to expand the field into the edit window, your expansion will be there -- but you might not be able to close the window, because something has gone horribly w0rng.
Please: I'd really like to be able to use OW again...
