  • Appearance: Fixed an incorrect tooltip on the pencil edit button (Advanced mode).

  • Appearance: Fixed a UI issue in the colour dialog in Internet Explorer and Firefox when the current user language is French.

  • Appearance: Removed the height property for a file upload tool.

  • Appearance: Support negative margin values.

  • Appearance: Fixed some consistency issues when applying the same styles to many fields.

  • Appearance: Fixed a compatibility issue with Internet Explorer 10 when setting a field caption width to 0 px.

  • Appearance: Ability to specify no background image.

  • Appearance: Removed the height style on single line text and password inputs, allowing you to apply styles from a textarea without changing the height of the textbox or password input and vice-versa.

  • Appearance: Fixed an issue where the toolbar buttons would not appear as selected even after clicking them when the browser does not support the style (e.g. the bold button on a DropdownListBox in Safari).

  • Appearance: Fixed an issue where the height of the ListBox tool could not be edited in the Appearance editor advanced mode window, which also prevented it from applying the height style to multiple ListBoxes.

  • Appearance: Fixed an issue that prevented the advanced appearance window of the section from opening in Internet Explorer 8.

  • Mapping: Fixed a tooltip display issue on a field when the toolitp text is long.

  • Fixed a field value issue in the MASTER_DATA_MGT_TEMPLATE process template in English.

  • Fixed an issue where a field loses its tabindex when set to read-only initially then becoming active afterward.

  • Fixed an issue with the Redo/Undo function and the Appearance editor after duplicating a field.

  • Fixed an issue where it was not possible to add a new field when the settings dialog of an existing field is open.

  • Fixed a display issue where the form designer window was wider than its toolbar.

  • Fixed an issue where the width set to the field caption labels from the appearance mode was reset when editing the field caption label.

  • Fixed an UI bug in the form configuration popup.

  • Corrected a bug that made sections getting larger after moving a field when the sections width is set to a fixed value in the form configuration.

  • Selecting a field or section while editing a label now triggers the focus out event on the label text edit input.

  • Reduced the occurrence of tooltips remaining visible.

  • Fixed an issue that would reset the width of a field caption when editing the text after setting a custom width in the appearance mode.

  • Fixed an issue where changing the labels alignment (e.g. from right alignment to top) did not resize the sections width.

  • Fixed an issue where editing the field captions text did not resize the sections width while typing. The sections width will now enlarge if needed to display the full label, but will adjust to a small size if needed only after confirming the text for performance reasons.

  • Fixed an issue where the form layout could break when changing from one property to another edit mode too quickly (Id, Tooltip, Format, Behaviour and Mapping).

  • Fixed a style issue with the WorkflowFileUpload tool.

  • Fixed an issue with the field value labels that were not vertically aligned with the field caption labels in some browsers. (To apply these changes, you must open the form in the form editor and save.)

  • Removed the calendar icon next to Short time and Long time field inputs. (To apply these changes, you must open the form in the form editor and save.)

Web Service API

  • #3482 - BUG: Web Service API: Fixed an issue where the API was unable to identify an authorized user defined in the ProcessesRuntimeWebServiceAllowedUsers due to case sensitive validation.

  • Note: This issue could prevent the normal use of the impersonation feature in the API e.g Parameter: ImpersonateUsername=username

  • Workaround for the previous versions: The usernames in the ProcessesRuntimeWebServiceAllowedUsers parameter of the web.config must all be in lower cases and separated by a comma without spacing between the values e.g. user1,user2,user3

  • #3494 - BUG: Web Service API: Fixed an engine logging issue.
