Nightly Changelog: 8.0.0- beta.20190107
##Ignition Platform
FB12063 Perspective logging fixes. Added remote level arg to script
Now the appenders levels are set correctly for both the AlterLogging action and script. Added more details to the script hint. Added an arg to the script to set the remote logging level so users can set it back to the default level independently of the client logging level.
FB12118: Client Launcher UX improvements
Auto-add localhost, don’t auto close modals when then lose focus, add option for auto-closing the launcher when launching a client
##Misc
Fix issue with Windows NCL hanging on launch with auto-exit off

FB12113: Legacy tag conversion 01022019
Includes the following fixes:
- Fix that prevents udt parameters from being treated as standard tag properties. Also updated the legacy test config.idb to use a udt parameter with the same name as a standard tag property for test purposes.
- Fixed bug where the _ types_ folder was being converted, but with a different node id
Perspective
FB10978: Bindings on session props can now be refreshed from scripts in the same way as view or component props

Ignition Platform
FB11672 Renaming of data type doesn’t propagate change to dependent nodes
Renaming a data type now works as a refactor, updating all dependent nodes with the new name.
Also, in working on this ticket, we fixed a bug where you couldn’t effectively modify the parent type of an instance if the current type didn’t exist.
FB12141 Deleting many tags is slow and FB11579 warning about deleting type definition
Perspective
FB12084: Popups in Edge open to correct size
FB11608: Perspective timezone project setting
FB12031: Default tag provider for the project is used for tag history query bindings when no provider is specified on the tag path
FB12116: Added useful log messages for diagnosing authorization decisions in perspective
For diagnostics on denied project or view access, set logger perspective.ClientSession to debug
For diagnostics on denied gateway-scoped actions, set logger com.inductiveautomation.perspective.ComponentModel to debug
Here are examples of the logs:

Ignition Platform
FB11935 update system.tag functions and intellihints
Updated some intellihints, and changed the behavior on these items:
- The system.tag.move function has been split out into copy and move functions
- system.tag.move: on client side, you had to specify a source provider for each tag to move. Now the project default provider will be used if the provider is not specified (client only). The destination provider must still be specified.
- system.tag.delete will no longer allow the root or the types folder to be specified for deletion
- A timeout has been added to system.tag.readBlocking and system.tag.writeBlocking

OptionalLibs Manifest now shows correct names

FB10814 Render loading view state display if view path is not configured for embedded views
It’s difficult to tell the difference between when a view path hasn’t been configured or specified, and when we are just waiting for a tag binding to return. Therefore, we just render the loading view state display when the view path is empty in order to cover both cases.

FB12253: Client Secret is now obfuscated in OpenID Connect IdP Configs
- Add the capability for a
WebAuthStrategyAdapterto transform config data from the user before saving - OIDC IdP Config UI updated to send back obfuscated client secret unless the user opts-in to change the client secret
- Exports of OIDC IdP configs include the obfuscated client secret
- Internal DB stores the obfuscated client secret
- If there is a problem obfuscating or de-obfuscating the client secret, it will be logged at the debug level of logger gateway.HttpOIDCClientServiceConfig and the effective client secret will be empty string. This will happen for any existing beta users who have saved a plaintext client secret or when importing a config which was exported before this change is merged in. This will also happen if the value for -DencodingKey changes from when it was last obfuscated. The client secret can be corrected by going to the config UI for the IdP and entering / saving the client secret.
- Removed a bunch of code which provided backwards capability for older beta configs since we do not need to support backwards compatibility between beta versions

FB12017: Perspective project property for Identity Provider should have option for "None"
FB10658: Error dialog design cleanup
Specifically:
- update the arrow icons in the prev/next buttons
- update blue link color in the details footer
- replace red error icon with new, flat icon from LaF
- refine padding to be consistently 16/8 pixels
- position scrollbar correctly in the panel
FB11844 pers. sparkline stroke width units set to px
Now that non-scaling-stroke is set as a vector effect this needs to be in px units instead of % to prevent harsh scaling of the stroke (which is based on the diagonal length of the viewbox). Also exposed some of these so they can be overridden as props. Perspective Sparkline stroke is no longer affected by differences in the data points by using a non-scaling-stroke vector effect

11581: Added supplemental certificate support on gateway
Now the Gateway on startup will load supplemental certificates from data/certificates/supplemental into the default trust store (usually cacerts unless otherwise specified). This is helpful to allow ssl connections that use a self signed certificate that doesn’t come from a trusted Certificate Authority.
Things to note:
- This directory is included in gateway backups.
- A backup of the default trust store is created on the gateways first start with the JRE and placed as a peer to the default trust store (if cacerts, file is cacerts.bak).
- Accounts for system props ‘javax.net.ssl.trustStore’ and ‘javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword’ args to alter the trust store that is operated on as well as the password if its been changed.

- Project config edits handle missing global props gracefully for Edge and Standard
12662: Fix Edge project conversion / startup logic
12631: Hide internal version fields in realtime tag provider settings
12615: String in place of enum value can wreak havoc on tags.
2 things:
- If an incorrect property value makes its way into a propertyset, get() will return the default value (or the "else" value) instead of throwing an error.
- TypeUtilities.toString was calling the localized version of the enum toString (TimeUnits implements Localized). This isn’t right, and is why we have toStringLocalized. I’m guessing there’s a high chance this will change the display of objects in some places, but hopefully not much. Most places should be using the right LocalizedEnumListCellRenderer (or whatever the class is called)
12653: Deserialization error on template due to method removed from BitwiseExpression
Fixed the BitwiseExpression, but also tweaked the deserializer so that this type of problem is reported as a warning and not an unhandled exception.

11929 identity provider should be unique
11811 NCLs support supplemental certificates across JRE upgrades
Now there is a certificates directory in .ignition/clientlauncher-data which can hold certificates that will be loaded into the default trust store for both the NCLs as well as during the bootstrap process. The latter ensures that the JRE being used to launch a vision client or designer has had the certificate imported into its default trust store before communicating. There are 3 scenarios that this is necessary:
- For the launcher to comm with the gateway (achieved by adding certs at the launcher startup)
- Launching a client from a gateway where a compatible JRE has already been downloaded
All certs in the certificate directory are loaded into the default trust store before attempting any comms with the gateway during bootstrap. - When launching clients before a compatible JRE has been retrieved from that or any gateway
We are on the launcher JRE which still has the certificate required to launch anyways. Once a restart is triggered to bootstrap on the correct JRE the certs are loaded (see option 2)
The certificate directory is generated if it’s missing and a backup of the default trust store is created before being modified in whatever JRE the launcher/bootstraping is running on.
