Topic: ElementDefinition.definition null in profiles
Sarah Gaunt (Jan 13 2020 at 01:07):
Is it expected behaviour that the the ElementDefinition.definition displays "null" on hover over in the differential view rendering of a profile in an IG if there isn't a new definition in the profile?

It seems like this is fairly recent behaviour - looking back at old IGs it used to be that there was just nothing on hover-over if the element isn't further defined.
The thing is - there are times when you don't need to add any information to the original definition (like the above - the base definition is "the location where the encounter takes place" - that's exactly what it is and for our use case we don't need to add anything) and having a "null" show up makes the IG look kind of unfinished...
I personnally would like to have the base profile definition as default, but if that isn't acceptable (and maybe this has already been discussed and I missed it), wouldn't it be prefereable to go back to have nothing on hover over (like in US Core) than to have "null"?

where is this so I can reproduce it?

I actually thought it was happening in all the latest IGs, but there are a handful where it's not. (like https://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/sdc/StructureDefinition-sdc-questionnaire.html)
