habmin2 insteon items

When I create rules using habmin2 my “when” clause is always empty.
Anyone know where I should look to fix?

In the habmin2 Automation>Rules editor I have to type my items.
Is that normal or should they already be in the menu?

I checked spelling and whatnot and think I have all that correct.

I’m learning openhab2, RPi, Linux, Python, Bash, all these programming/scripting environments, etc. so I can easily be missing something obvious.

I have only insteon devices (no z-wave, etc.).
My insteon devices show up under habmin2:
Configuration>Items
but not in
Automation>Rules editor
and when I type my items they don’t appear in a “when” clause

I haven’t found any videos of the habmin2 environment to know what is normal or not.

Sidenote: It would sure be nice if Insteon link management were added in the habmin2 environment the way (it sounds like) z-wave management is done.

Those of us invested in Insteon would sure like such an integrated solution for link management.
Not sure if you guys have seen this.

Remaining Habmin2 questions:
Why doesn’t habmin2 rules generate any WHEN clause for anything I try?
Any way to enable “Save” for text-based rules?

I understand habmin’s rule editor intent is focused on the Blockly-ish editor but the /Source text editor is also quite beautiful and allows me to edit exisiting text rules from a browser but I can’t save.
