Weekly Changelog: 8.1.24-b20221214

## Visualization

**5835: Vision: Ability to detect when available and to trigger a project update**  
Added a new Update Mode for vision: "None". This allows the project designer to handle delivering updates to running clients manually with the help of a new boolean Vision Client system tag named ProjectUpdateAvailable and a companion scripting function system.vision.updateProject() which will actually perform the project update on the Vision Client.

**6861: Perspective: Axes applied incorrect on XY chart with multiple series**  
Fixed regression preventing more than one XYChart series from being assigned to a single axis.

**2624: Docked Views: Dismissing modal docked view by clicking overlay can potentially result in different docked view becoming visible**  
Fixed an issue where dismissing a docked modal view would open a different docked view.

## Connectivity

**6922: TCP Driver needs a write timeout setting**  
Added a "Write Timeout" setting to the TCP Driver.

## Data Model

**6786: UDT Parent Data Type: Referencing a folder causes any UDT definitions below that folder to no longer be browsable for this property**  
Fixed UDT parent types that don't exist from hiding existing UDT Definitions under the path of non-existent parent type.  
Fixed stale folders showing up in the new Data Type Instance menu.

Weekly Changelog: 8.1.24-b20221215

## Visualization

**6421: "backActionText" functionality in nested submenus of perspective menu tree**  
The root "backActionText" will now act as the default for all levels of menu items while individual sub menus can override this with their own "backActionText" configuration property.

**5441: Option to include Tag Paths in Pen Name on Perspective Power Charts**  
Added an additional config option on the power chart that allows users to choose the tag folder depth displayed on the chart (IE: grandParentFolder/parentFolder/name).

**6733: Perspective SVG Importer - elements are given type "marker" upon import**  
Added support for "pattern" type svg elements.

**6805: SVG Drawing Importer and Renderer fails to render Text Path elements correctly**  
SVG Drawing Importer and Renderer now properly render text path elements

## Connectivity

**6921: CoroutineDispatcher blocking in OPC UA and Driver modules**  
Fixed a threading issue that could allow blocking operations in one driver module to affect other driver modules or the OPC UA module.

**6884: Allow Sampling Interval to be configured independently of Tag Group rate**  
Add a new Tag Group OPC UA extension property that allows Sampling Interval to be requested independently of the Tag Group Rate.
