Overview

This release is primarily focused on the repair of bugs, found in both the 5.5.x & 6.1.x versions of Appx, along with a few enhancements.

Line: 56 to 56
 

HTML Client APPX Application Development

During this current Appx R&D development cycle (i.e., for Appx 6.2.0 since the Appx 6.1.0 general release) the html client has been updated so it can be used to create/edit images and ILF code as well to debug ILF code. The html code editing capabilities can be used on earlier version of Appx such as 5.5.1 but has limitation since some functionality had to be added to the engine, thus that functionality isn’t available in the earlier Appx versions. As well, not all development functionality, that is available in the Java client, is available in the html client. See know issues below for further information.

Image Editor on HTML Client

Image Editor on HTML Client

  Image editor on html client works the same way it does on desktop client with a couple of minor differences. As you can tell, the toolbar got changed a little bit. We added “Add a Field” and “Delete Selection” buttons and removed “Show Character Interface” and “Data Palette” buttons. These buttons are not supported on html client yet. Also, we grouped the buttons in a more logical way. Hovering over the buttons gives you shortcut key you can use instead of clicking the button.
Line: 77 to 77
 The new image editor on html client should also work on release 5, however there are 2 known issues with release 5:
  1. Multi widget editor doesn’t detect the selected items on the screen.
  2. Screens that use the first row as the title bar don’t show up correctly.

ILF Editor on HTML Client

ILF editor on html client works the same way it does on desktop client with the exception of a few know issue that are listed below.

  1. HTML Client - In the ILF editor, the search, replace and jump button items are not functional (We expect to deal with this issue in the next release)
  2. HTML Client - In the ILF editor, some audit information will be truncated or missing (We expect to deal with this issue in the next release)
  3. HTML Client - In the ILF editor, the ILF code end marker [END] will not be present on APPX versions prior to 6.2.0
  4. HTML Client - In the ILF editor, statement(s) commented as a multi-line comment, will not be shown as being commented on APPX versions prior to 6.2.0
