There are some things that changed when I upgraded; the only documentation I can find at the Wiki is for 4.6.2.

Specific questions:

In a scene, what does the small right pointing arrow to the right of 'On Level', 'Ramp Rate' and 'Retries' do? It seems to bring up a list of variables, but only the ones that aren't state variables?

Where is the 'Copy Scene Attributes From...' functionality now?

Thanks in advance

Copy scene attributes was removed. With 5.xxx supporting multiple device types in scenes, it no longer worked properly.

Why did you stop at 5.3.3 instead of .4? 5.3.4 is the latest

the "Play" button changes the context of the drop-down box.  Setting to a variables value won't actually work for scene type "Insteon", because the ISY is not a middle man in controlling devices.  There is a discussion here, on the various scene types.

As previously mention copy scene no longer exists, and yes it's a pain point.  Fortunately once a scene is configured you rarely need to change it.

And before you get stuck or complain... the GUI has a function that is NOT intuitive.  When updating a device's properties, change the dropdown value, THEN push the button on the LEFT of the dropdown to write the change to the device:

"On", "Beep", "On Level", "Ramp Rate", "Backlight" are actually the Set button for the dropdown to it's right.  Set the value, then press the button on the left.
