Script Language: ItemVersionChanges preview values

This fixes an issue where attribute types with binary data sometimes displayed garbled text when using <ItemVersionChanges>. To ensure readable text is always returned, we have clarified which attribute types will or will not return display values.

For the following attribute types, a preview of the modified or added values is not available. Instead, the log will display "No preview available."

• Custom
• External reference
• RVF
• String (array)
• Identity

Config Item: Ability to add Config Type SID to Grids and Structure Tree

It is now possible to add properties, e.g., name, SID, for a configured type to grids and the structure tree grid in the context of a config item.

Field Code: ConfiguredType

A config item is connected to a specific item type.

This field code switches context from the configItem to the ConfiguredType Object.

Structure Tree Example:

Grid Example:

<Grid>

    <Columns>

        <ItemNameColumn width="200"/>

        <TextColumn caption="Configuration Type">#{ConfiguredType.SID}</TextColumn>

    </Columns>

    <Row/>

swArchitect: Part refactoring option for List to Single

Currently, there is a refactoring option in swArchitect to change part multiplicity from Single to List, but not List to Single. With R30, the refactoring tool GUI has been updated to support refactoring in both directions. Upon selecting the part type, the GUI will automatically display which multiplicity type you are going from and to.

Note that these operations do not affect the data itself, only the meta model.

When changing multiplicity from List to Single, if there are instances of multiple parts, a list of the items with the multiple parts will be presented in the bottom section of the screen. This list can be used as a reference when making changes to the data once the refactoring is completed.

FaultTreeGraph: Default configuration removed

The required configuration for this extension which has historical been hard-coded on the back-end is now to be included in the configuration set by Architects in Configure the explorer so as to provide more transparency of the configuration being applied.

For the FaultTreeGraph extension to work properly, Architects must include the following configuration to the extension. Simply click on the View example XML button for the extension in Configure the explorer, copy the configuration, click on Edit Configuration and paste it in the Edit XML dialog there. Save your changes.

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<Configs>

    <FaultTreeGraphConfig>

        <ContainerItem sid="2CEU" />

        <LeafItem sid="2CET" />

        <ExternalEventItem sid="2CEV" />

        <AndItem sid="2CLD" />

        <OrItem sid="2CLO" />

        <RootNodePart sid="2IFW" />

        <LogicInputPart sid="2IFI" />

        <TimeScaleAttribute sid="FRTS" />

        <ProbabilityAttribute sid="FTAR" />

        <TransferLabelAttribute sid="TRAN" />

    </FaultTreeGraphConfig>

</Configs>

In addition, historically an attribute with SID=SIED was used to store names of Intermediate Events. Nowadays, the item name for the gates is used for this purpose so the SIED has been removed from the example XML.

XML import: Check for description changes

Previously, XML imports did not check for changes to the description and, therefore, if only the description was changed, it did not force a new version for released items. Now, you have the option to include a check of the description of a released item to see if it has changed. If the option is selected and there are changes to the description of a released item, the result will be to force a new version. The default setting is "False".

PDF Print: Improved handling of Document preview

If the preview is not what you expect, click Settings and modify as needed, e.g., paper size. Once setting changes are saved in the Printer dialog, click OK and the preview will update to match your new settings. You can then proceed with printing using the Print button.

Note: As before, the settings and printer selection are global in that they apply to all open pages in your SystemWeaver session. If you have multiple open pages set to the Print Preview view and you change the printer settings on one page and move to another, you will receive a message "Printer settings have changed. Click Refresh." Clicking Refresh will update the preview.
