Symbol Editor - Not refresh library list if an empty library is deleted from Library Manager

[Silviu Laurentiu]

  1. From Symbol Editor, remove last symbol from a library
  2. From Library Manager - remove empty library
  3. Bug: The library is not deleted from Symbol Editor
  4. After restart of Symbol Editor the library is removed also from the Library Editor list

  I added a movie which reproduce the bug

So the treeview is updated correctly if the library removed from the library table is non-empty?

[Silviu Laurentiu (silviulaurentiu)]

Yes

[Silviu Laurentiu (silviulaurentiu)]

Sorry, I was wrong
It seems that is not important of the library is empty or not
The bug happens when the library was added from Library Editor and the Library Editor is not restarted.
