July 2019

Bug Fixes

ISSUE-352749 - Read only fix

Fixed a problem where references under the read-only Attribute Value Group Component on a Web UI Node Editor were not marked as read only.

ISSUE-353372 - Unexpected error fixed when using streaming mode and Use Details Overlay on Web UI Task List screen

Previously, an unexpected error was thrown when working with 'Use Details Overlay' on a Web UI Task List screen with the streaming mode property enabled (TaskList.Streaming.Enabled=true). This has been corrected so an error no longer occurs.

ISSUE-362477 - Details overlay displaying inconsistent data

In the Web UI, there was an issue with the details overlay when tabs were used inside the Details screen, where the selected tab would inconsistently display data. When that occurred, if the user navigated to a different tab, the tab's contents would sometimes appear blank. This has been fixed. Hotfixes are available for step-9.1-mp5 and step-9.1-mp6.

ISSUE-362549 - Packaging Metadata Header exception fixed

Hotfix for step-9.1-mp5: Fixed a problem on the Web UI where the Packaging Metadata Header on the Packaging screen was throwing an unexpected exception when the screen was reloaded after executing the Save & Approve action.

ISSUE-362563 - SOAP 'setReferencesValue' error fixed

Hotfix for step-9.1-mp5: Fixed a problem occurring when calling a SOAP method 'setRefencesValue' with an incorrect reference type. It caused a NullPointerException to appear. Now, 'setReferencesValue' also supports Classification to Product Links.

ISSUE-362845 - STEPXML meta attribute now marked as changed

Hotfixes for step-9.1-mp5 and step-9.1-mp3: Previously, changing a meta attribute on a classification would trigger a STEPXML export, but the meta attribute was not marked as changed in the export itself. This has been corrected.

ISSUE-362902 - Fixed issue when selecting LOV attribute on Product Variants tab

Hotfixes for step-9.1-mp5 and mp4: On the Product Variants tab in list view in the Web UI, an Unexpected Error was thrown when attempting to select values from a LOV attribute. It is now possible to set the value by typing the characters and pressing enter.

ISSUE-363213 - Logging added to script on MongoDB server

Hotfix for mongodbadapter-7.0.53: Logging has been added into the script that is executed on the MongoDB server.

ISSUE-363543 - Web UI Multi Edit Reference component allows new characters

Hotfix for step-9.1-mp5: The problem was seen in the Web UI when using a Multi Edit Reference component. The validation of the value was failing if the value contained the characters '<' and '>.' This has been corrected to allow the characters '<' and '>.' There is a hotfix available for step-9.1-mp5.

ISSUE-363574 - Globally revisable entity correctly displays under parent in Approved

Hotfix for step-9.0-mp5: If a globally revisable entity under a parent had been deleted into the recycling bin, and then the entity had been imported again, the imported entity was not showing as a child of the correct parent in Approved workspace. This has been corrected.

ISSUE-363910 - Reference cap at 10,000 to correct memory issues

Hotfix for step-9.1-mp5: Previously, if the Web UI Multi References component showed more than 10,000 references, the application servers memory was exhausted. This has been fixed by capping the number of references shown at 10,000.

ISSUE-364199 - Fixed an issue with Asset Importer in the STEP Workbench

Hotfix for step-8.2-mp3: In the STEP Asset Importer configuration, the Asset Matcher section contains a 'Multiple Matches Found' parameter with 'Replace content on all matches' as one of the possible values. This setting is supposed to allow for asset content to be replaced in multiple existing assets, but it was not working as expected, and the import tried to create new assets instead of replacing content. This error has been fixed.

ISSUE-364256 - Web UI design mode error fixed

Hotfix for step-9.1-mp5: An issue was occurring in Web UI where an unexpected error would be thrown when navigating to Task List screens from within design mode. This has been fixed.

ISSUE-364579 - Excel import fix

Hotfix for step-9.1-mp5: Fixed a problem where workbench was not recognizing Microsoft's Excel format when uploading asset content to STEP.

ISSUE-364645 - Fix for Excel file import error file

Hotfix for step-9.1-mp5: When importing a multi-sheet Excel file in the Web UI, the importer could produce a garbled error file where the rows from other sheets were merged into the same row on the error file. This has now been fixed so that the error file lists the rows from the first sheet in the source file where the errors occurred.

ISSUE-364657 - Node Editor works while Tree structure updates

Hotfix for step-9.1-mp5: Previously, users were unable to work in a Node Editor while the Tree structure in the Web UI was updating. Now, it is possible to continue working while the Tree structure updates.

ISSUE-364697 - Change packages error fixed

Hotfix for step-9.1-mp5: When installing change packages in the workbench, an exception was thrown if meta attributes on a target system had a different dimension dependency flag than the source system. This has been fixed, and there is a hotfix for step-9.1-mp4 for this solution.

ISSUE-365039 - Fixed split panel collapsing issue in widgets

Hotfix for step-9.1-mp5: In Web UI, Homepage widgets were collapsing when configured as split panels. A minimum width has been added to correct this issue.

ISSUE-366675 - Caching mechanism caused server to run out of memory

The wrong caching mechanism used when filtering values caused the application server to run out of memory. This has been fixed and there is a hotfix available for step-9.1-mp5.
