Remove default values on image elements

Open hackermd opened this issue 7 years ago • 0 comments

Why do you set default values for attributes such as Name or SizeX on Image, Pixels and Channel elements upon creation of a new node (see here)?

These defaults are highly problematic, since they cause unexpected behavior when not explicitly overridden and require workarounds on the application side. Setting the values of these attributes to None would be safer.
