Improvement to columns variable change in Formula tool

Hello,

 

I think replacement in Formula tool should work a little different. Now the tool recognize Column variable because it is in square brackets. When you:

1, select not whole text with brackets

2. click on the Columns and Constants and select one

you get an error like in the attached files.

 

In my opinion, however you click on a variable in editor (regardless of what you've selected), when you select a column or a constant, it should be fully replaced without parsing error.

 

Best,

Piotr
