Usability improvements

Multilevel view

To improve the visibility of the tree hierarchy, the multilevel view of, for example, Bill Of Material sessions is enhanced with vertical lines.

Keyboard support for power users

On the Preferences tab on the User Profile Details (uigwt0102s000) page, keyboard support for power users can be enabled and disabled. If keyboard support is enabled, the user can use the keyboard to view and select items in drop-down-list boxes, without opening the search pane. See the online help.

Grid and filter menu

In overview sessions, these menus are combined:

  • The grid menu, which is used to hide or show the filter row
  • The filter menu

These menus are displayed as one grid menu.

Two-digit year numbers

Based on the year in which the date is specified, two-digit year dates are converted into four-digit year dates.

During the conversion, it is assumed that the four-digit year date should be in the next 20 years, or in the preceding 80 years.

Example:

In 2017, you specify these two-digit year numbers:

  • 37 - This is converted to 2037.
  • 38 - This is converted to 1938.

For UTC fields the server only accepts years from 1970.
