Pre-fill Edit Tool UI with Core info if available?
Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

When editing a tool, i.e. adding/modifying Annotations data, the fields in the Editing UI are pre-filled with any data that is already available, as long as that data is from the Annotation layer too.

In the case that a data point exists in the Core layer but not in Annotations, that field shows as empty in the Editing UI and may lead an editor to believe that the info is missing and needs to be filled in.

Suggestion: wherever Annotations data is missing, fall back to pre-filling the fields in the Editing UI with the corresponding value from Core, if available.
