< Documents | Release 0.9
This update of the 0.9 LTS release fixes about 45 bugs and appends some improvements, which you can read wholly in the update ChangeLog.
User significant actions on the update
- FIX:SYS: The common configuration field "WorkDir" was prevented from marking as modified one at the project switch than saving it in the configuration file, but there is no mechanism of automatic removing this field from the configuration file of the old projects.
- => remove manually the common configuration field "WorkDir" if it was appeared there in a wrong way and you have problems in use folders of foreign OpenSCADA projects by this project.

- combining data of packages with even direction and address during prmWait_TM (5 seconds);
- microseconds part of the time fixed for 6 symbols;
- the data messages appended for the direction symbol;

User Interface
- FIX:Common review and refactoring the tables in Qt and Web both generically and in the view Table of the primitive FormEl of VCA:
- QTStarter,QTCfg,Vision: The common library class TableDelegate significantly improved to work in QTCfg and Vision:
- appended for the own user roles SelectRole, TextLimRole and OneLineString;
- the cell paint appended for the background color by reading-applying the common roles;
- the number types (integer and real) appended for force centering;
- the string types appended by the options of alignment and wordwrapping from the role Qt::TextAlignmentRole;
- appended for long text visible limit support by the own role TextLimRole and the default value 300 symbols by sizeHint() additional reimplementation.
- FIX: The view "Table" of the primitive "FormEl":
- VCAEngine,QTStarter,Vision,WebVision: Appended by the new cell type 't'-text mostly for allowing the edition confirming the type 's'-string by pressing Enter.
- VCAEngine,Vision,WebVision: Appended of the column, row and cell space option "prec" of the real value precision control; and by the column and cell attribute "align" implementation.
- WebVision,Vision: Appended for switching the tables in preventing of double storing the source content at the content size more for 10000.
- FIX:Vision: Using the common table delegate with the feature of multiline edition.
- Improved in the columns, rows and cells show at the table updation and commonly:
- in limiting the visual size of the cell content in 300 symbols and the rows height in 70% from the whole table size;
- more precision columns width alignment;
- in fitting at the development mode and also at the vertical header show;
- in the table close filling by consideration the visible vertical scrollbar size;
- in fitting after the table whole resizing only, so allow the columns resizing manually also and to provide that true fitting always.
- Implemented for the light processing of the width changing and updating:
- light edition without the columns refitting all updating time, only at: first row appearing, columns count change and the column title change, font change and resize;
- apply the column force width and the row height calculation with limits independently from the common attribute "colsWdthFit" value;
- setting the value, early resizing and the table fitting, moved to the space of the table content presence and after the sorting.
- The export function in runtime append of export the view Table of the primitive "FormEl" in CSV.
- WebVision:
- Improved in the columns, rows and cells show at the table updating and commonly:
- the not fitting mode (the attribute "colsWdthFit" missing) implementation, using the automatic table layout mode for calculation the fixed widths and next switching to the fixed table layout mode;
- multiline text edition of the text cells in whole width and height of the cell, with the edition apply by Ctrl+Enter;
- view limiting the string cells in 300 symbols;
- display the boolean cells as an image at the TRUE state;
- table cells in the editing mode allowed for the system-browser context menu.
- Implemented for the light processing of the width changing and updating:
- the table changes detection and updating switched to the mode of not storing double source content;
- prevented from the complete updating at the attribute "value" modification.
- Appended for the sorting support by columns. Set to the first visible column for sorting at the sorting enable.
- WebCfgD: The table expandings for:
- the big text content limiting in 300 symbols at the visibility;
- the string type allowed for the multiline edition using TEXTAREA;
- the type data "bool" is shown as an image, not "On" or "Off";
- centring the boolean, number, time and selectable content;
- simplifying the table content edition for the types time, number and string by removing the apply and spin buttons.
- QTStarter,QTCfg,Vision: The common Qt-code of the OpenSCADA Qt-modules started in their moving to the new library files lib_qtgen.* what placed in the module QTStarter folder and linked in all Qt-modules, and that done for: external icoSize(), colorAdjToBack() and TableDelegate.
- VCAEngine:
- Appended and enabled as a build option for the mark mechanism of the attributes changing without the doubles, by requesting the previous-completed cycles, than also preventing the need of detection the doubles in the visualisers and storing the big source content.
- The projects runtime improved in changing parents of the processing pages on the fly.
- The session tasks execution appended of early execution at events presence.
- FIX: The VCA-styles fixed in accessing to empty fields which don't load.
- The "Diagnostic" page of the VCA-projects adapted to show the debug level messages at enable the debugging.
- The project session execution information appended for the real periodicity taken from the task, which also used in form value of the procedure attribute "f_frq".
- Vision: The property dialogues of the "Widgets" and "Projects / Widget libraries" appended for own statusbar and a button of context manual invoking. The TextEdit widgets switched to own statusbar of the property dialogues for the cursor position and what disabled in ToolTip. The text code edition widget of the "Widgets" property dialogue appended in restoring the cursor position after apply or cancel.
- FIX:WebVision: Appended for detection disappearing of the project execution session and return an error, in the common request "pgOpenList", and at dropping down the calculation counter "tmCnt".
- The keyboard focus and events significantly improved for ensure that working in common by:
- setting the "tabindex" attribute for all active widgets and for FormEl items specially - for the form elements;
- appending the "tabindex" number calculation as a unique one for whole interface, than prventing the tab focus jumps;
- processing the onfocus event for the own focus setting by setFocus();
- the view Button of the primitive FormEl appended for the keyboard events processing for down and up at the keys Space and Enter;
- the primitive Diagram is simplified by removing the spare A item;
- FIX: Fixed in the keyboard focus switching at mouse clicking on buttons with images.
- FIX: Fixed in checking the removed widgets for all and the master page.
- FIX: Fixed at last in plodding spare DIV items at the page changing in the page containers.
- FIX: Prevented in cycling at presence the Web-session but missing the corresponded VCA-session.
- FIX:WebCfgD: Completely revised and expanded for:
- the all internal tool actions moving to the implementation as buttons and the toolbar size set from 25 to 30 pixels;
- removing the toolbar button images' size filtering-resizing on the server side;
- page icon padding between the title set to 10 pixels;
- the control page complete updating after the window resize;
- the generic text edition field by TEXTAREA expanded for apply and cancel from the keyboard;
- the hosts updating function bound to the double mouse click on the common space of the tree area;
- FIX: the hosts updating function fixed in detection douple host items;
- FIX: forced in the actual-selected item marking in the control tree after it rolling;
- removing nodeText() and setNodeText() by direct using "innerText" and "textContent".
