Data Manager Panel — Two UX Imrovements in Studio Web (Arguments / Default Value)

Feedback Studio Web

Hello Team,

I came across two small but impactful UX issues in the Data Manager panel in Studio Web that I wanted to flag.

Issue 1 — In/Out Arguments Appear Twice in the Panel

When you set an argument’s direction to In/Out, it appears correctly under both Inputs and Outputs — however, as two separate expanded cards. This causes visual duplication and panel bloat, especially with multiple In/Out arguments.

Suggestion: Add a dedicated In/Out section as a third category so that the argument appears exactly once. This also aligns better with the conceptual operation of argument directions.

Issue 2 — Misleading Placeholder on Disabled Default Value Field

For Out and In/Out arguments, the Default value field is correctly disabled — but the placeholder still reads “Enter text”, making it look like a bug rather than intentional behavior.

Studio Desktop handles this correctly by displaying “Default value not supported” instead.

The ⓘ tooltip does explain the issue on hover, but that’s easy to miss — especially on touch devices. A simple placeholder text change would fix this immediately with zero layout impact.

Both are minor fixes that would meaningfully improve consistency between Studio Web and Desktop. Happy to share more details if helpful!

@chinthakayala_karthik Thanks for taking the time to share the feedback.

  1. Having in/out arguments appear in both was intentional, but we will take another look at this to see if we have a better solution for the bloat.
  2. Will raise an issue internally to fix the placeholder text.
