1 Release Notes for InduSoft Web Studio Release Notes for Wonderware InduSoft Web Studio Wonderware InduSoft Web Studio v8.0 + Patch 2 (Tuesday, January 12, 2016) ID Type Description 2095 Issue Resolved issue with the SaveScreenShot() built-in function not working properly when the screen resolution was scaled by the "Auto Screen Scaling" feature Issue Resolved issue that was happening when a screen and symbol had the same names, then the symbol would be saved into an SCC file during verify overwriting the SCC file created from the screen Issue Modified the Mobile Access to behave like the viewer and display an error message when the user types an invalid value on an input field Issue Fixed an issue with Indirect tags on Mobile Access. If you try to access a Local Tag using indirect access the Mobile Access would stop working Issue Fixed an issue on Mobile Access to load ComboBox items when the Position property is empty Issue Fixed problem when trying to write on Mobile Access Process Values. The interface would not open the correct Widget for writing depending on where you clicked on the widget. For instance, you could have Tag1 and Tag2, click on the Widget to write on Tag1, but the write interface would prompt you to write on the Tag Issue Fixed a problem where the Mobile Access Process Values would lock if you cancel a write operation Issue Modify the documentation to show that screen files must be checked in before changing the screen file extension Issue Resolved issue with the captions on Button and Rectangle objects when they were grayed out Issue Fixed an issue on Mobile Access to load VBScript with no spaces between the operands (e.g.: VarA>=VarB, instead of VarA [SPACE] >= [SPACE] VarB) Issue Resolved issue with the Trend Control object drawing additional lines when scrolling from right to left end entering the Daylight Saving period Issue Resolve issue with when the user uses the.scc as screen extension Issue Resolved issue with Tag Integration where some structure type tags with array members sometimes were not being imported correctly Issue Resolve issue with commands in hidden objects, now when the object is hidden it is not firing events anymore Issue Resolved an issue with the handling of Command animations on screen objects in a

2 stack of objects in Mobile Access. Previously, only the front-most object received mouse events (i.e., clicks), regardless of whether it had a Command animation. Now, the front-most object with a Command animation receives mouse events, and any other objects without Command animations in front of that object are ignored. This copies the existing and intended behavior of the Viewer (including Secure Viewer and Web Thin Client) Issue Fixed a problem on Mobile Access when executing Command Animations on polygons. Mobile Access would consider the click area to be a rectangle around the polygon. The fix forces the Mobile Access interface to accept the click only if the mouse is inside the polygon boundaries Issue Modified the the SNMPGet() built-in function to better handle memory allocation by creating a new option on the project's.app file called SNMPIsolated=1 under the [Options] section Issue Resolve issue with Combo Box Sort using Static Labels that behaves differently on MA and Viewer Issue Resolved issue with the SetViewerInFocus() built-in function not working properly on the latest versions of the product and OS Issue Resolved issue with the Trend Control showing some gaps in areas where data was actually saved in some specific situations Issue Resolved issue with the Tag Integration for Automation Direct PAC3K where the SO Boolean Data Types were being imported as Integers Issue Resolved issue with the Event Logger not properly recording the User Name and Station when the values were being changed inside a script with a Loop instruction, such as For...Next in a Remote Thin Client Issue Fixed issue on IoTView that would cause screens not to load properly Issue Resolved issue with the WinExec() built-in function not working properly with Runtimes on Windows Embedded Standard Issue Resolved issue with the Collaboration Server feature not properly handling the status of the files related to the Security System Issue Resolved issue with the FileWriteFields() built-in function not returning the correct value when succesfully writing to a file Issue Resolve issue with OPC XML/DA read trigger that was not respecting the group size Issue Resolved issue with the Trend and Alarm worksheets when using arrays of classes, configuring the last array position and changing the class definition would cause the last array position to be removed from these worksheets Issue Resolved issue with commands using Shortcut Keys on runtime screens being disabled after one of them used the 'F10' function key Issue Resolve issue with non-latin characters Issue Resolved issue with Tag Integration for RSLogix 5000 not working properly when the

3 tag had certain characters on the Description field Issue Resolve issue with screens that contains big images. These screen were not able to be open in Moxa devices Issue Modified the Security System Distributed Mode to include Authentication when configuring the Distributed Client. Now, on the client side, when configuring the Server settings, you have to configure a user and a password that are already configured on the Distributed Server, which belongs to a group that has the option "Enable Remote Security System and Remote Debugging Tools" checked Issue Resolved issue with the "Convert Resolution" tool not properly resizing screens with the SCC extension Issue Resolved issue with the "Target System" not being properly updated on the Ribbon Interface when switching projects with different Target Systems Issue Fixed the remote download of applications that would fail when using the Ribbon icon and connecting with an IoTView platform using the Execution Environment and not opening the Project Tab Issue Resolved issue with Tag Integration for RSLogix 5000 where some tags that were aliases were not being able to be imported. Modified the Database Gateway internal limit or number of rows that can be returned Change Request from 32k to 64k Created a new Tag Integration provider for AutomationDirect called ADPRO that Change Request integrates PAC3000 and PAC2000 Modified the Mobile Access feature to show objects animated by tags on the screen only Change Request after they have received the tag values Improved the Linux installer shell script to avoid misleading messages and restart the Change Request apache service Change Request Modified the messages when there are problems saving screen files.
