Nightly Changelog: 8.0.5-b20190903 The 8.0.4 RC will be available to download soon, and the 8.0.5 Nightly is now available [here](https://inductiveautomation.com/downloads/ignition/8.0.5-Nightly). Please see below for the changes. ## Fixed in 8.0.4 RC: ## Ignition Platform **14707: Notify user source when adding/removing user from Gateway script** Fixed an issue where system.user.removeUsers calls from Perspective would not immediately update the user listing on the Gateway’s web pages, making it seem like the call never went through. **14717: Avoid exception on removing final param from named query table when db set to** Fixed an issue where deleting the last parameter on a Named Query could cause the Designer to become unresponsive. **14825: Writing to parameters incorrectly sets value to fully qualified** Fixed an issue where writing a value to a UDT parameter from the Tag Browser would apply a qualified value object to the parameter, instead of just the value. **11047: Move Ignition’s built-in IdP into its own servlet context** Ignition IdPs now use their own servlet context. ## Perspective **14789: Implement createOrReplaceProject as a push when the project exists** Fixed an issue where overwriting a project via the EAM Send Project task would terminate any active Perspective Sessions for the project, instead of updating the sessions. **14624: Piped script errors and diag messages down to designer/console** Perspective scripting errors now appear in both the designer’s console, as well as use the designer’s popup error boxes. **12155: Add a way to print messages to the console from Perspective** Added a system.perspective.print() function to make scripting diagnostics easier. The function takes a string as the only argument, and will output the string to both the applicable console (designer or web browser) ## Fixed in 8.0.5: ## Ignition Platform **14799: Removed outdated http address check during redundancy settings check** Fixed an issue where changes made to the Redundancy Settings page on a redundant master gateway would needlessly force clients to reconnect. **10177: Implemented user lockout at the user source profile layer** Added User Lockout settings to User Sources. When enabled, multiple consecutive failed login attempts by a user will temporarily lock a user account, preventing further attempts until a configurable period of time. **14868: Sanitize tag paths containing angle bracket characters** Fixed an issue where importing nodes from the OPC Browser into a tag provider would fail if the node contained angled brackets. **14847: Parameters show definition, not current value in tag browser** Fixed an issue where parameter browse nodes in tag browse tree showed definition value instead of current value (in the case of bindings), and parameter nodes didn’t re-browse when parameters were added or removed. **14763: Avoid NPE if quality not set on Vision slider and min value \> value** Fixed some rendering issues that could occur when setting the Minimum Value on Vision’s Slider component above the Value. ## Reporting **14654: Connect and startup expression for report file save action file name before executing** Fixed an issue where tag references in report schedule Action expressions were failing to return the tag value. ## OPC-UA **14774: Allow OPC UA connection browse origin to be configured** Added a Browse Origin property that allows the origin of UA browse requests to be configurable. **14525: Fix a timeout browsing exposed tag providers with a 7.9 remote** Fixed some browsing timeouts that could occur with remote 7.9 tag providers. **14837: fix bug causing reads for meta diagnostic tags to return null** Fixed a bug causing system.opc.readValue to return null values for some diagnostic tags. ## DNP3 **14582: Modify DNP3 protocol for event timestamps** Fixed an issue where events were decoding timestamps improperly. ## Omron Driver(s) **14648: Remove broken DateTime support, fix memory leak** Fixed an issue where attempts at reading DATE\_AND\_TIME tags failed silently, instead of returning an error message. These reads should now return Bad\_ConfigError. ## Perspective **14401: Apply child position defaults on container children** Child position defaults are now applied on children of a container. **14487: Bring schema information into code editor(s)** Event information now appears in the docstring on Component Event scripts. **13172: Typeahead search support for Dropdown component** Added a search.searchParam property to the Dropdown component. This property can be used in conjunction with scripting to create a typeahead search. **14481: Add app bar settings to session and page properties** Added a session property (appBar.togglePosition) that can be used to set the app bar toggle to positions ‘left’, ‘right’, or ‘hidden’. Also added a page property (appBarVisible) that can be written to in order to directly display the app bar. **14132: Allow ComponentModal to force onscreen & updates to HorizontalMenu files** HorizontalMenu child menu items now always open down and to the right from the parent menu item that triggered their display. If they are opened within a popup, they will be rendered within the popup and force scrollbars. If a HorizontalMenu lives inside of a dock, the menu will be brought out into a modal display so it and its child menu items can all scroll together until a selection is made. ---

Nightly Changelog: 8.0.5-b20190904 ## Ignition Platform **14780: Parameter in alarm name not parsing correctly.** Fixed an issue where UDT parameter references in alarm names did not parse correctly when surrounded by other text. ## Perspective **14866: Fix dropdown option search with null value** Fixed an issue on the dropdown caused by setting value to ‘null’ while the ‘allowCustomOptions’ property was true. **14695: Serialize nulls in NodeEditor Gson constructor** Updated the copy action in the JSON Editor in the designer to also copy attributes with null values. **14247, 14246:Add project awareness to scripting functions when called from Perspective** Updated several system functions to be project-aware when called from Perspective, meaning the “project” parameter is now optional. The following functions were updated: system.db.clearNamedQueryCache system.report.executeAndDistribute system.report.executeReport system.report.getReportNamesAsDataset system.report.getReportNamesAsList system.db.getConnectionInfo **14542: Implemented property access settings in Perspective** Added new access modes on properties to help hide information from the browser and prevent browser edits for sensitive properties. Possible settings are: Public - properties work the same as they always did. This is the default option. Protected - Write attempts from the browser to this property are ignored (i.e., ‘read-only’) Private - No reading or writing from the browser. The property is effectively hidden from the browser. System - The property is updated by the system. ---

Nightly Changelog: 8.0.5-b20190913 ## Ignition Platform **14383: Tag Status Page Needs Corrected Links** Fixed an outdated “Relatime Configuration” link located on the Gateway’s Tag Status page. The link should now correctly lead to the Realtime Tag configuration page. ## Perspective The following enhancements have been made to the Time Series Chart and Brushed Time Selector components **14703: Add UI to show the chart is panned or zoomed** The Time Series Chart now has an icon in the top/right corner when the chart is zoomed in to any level past its base time range (1x zoom). Clicking on this icon will return the chart to its base time range. Milestone: Ignition 8.0.5 **14704: Do not allow pan/zoom to exceed the time boundaries of the series data** Both the Time Series Chart and the Chart Range Selector cannot be zoomed out past their standard level of zoom. Previously, these charts could be zoomed out indefinitely showing white space on either side of the charted data. **14690: Maintain zoom while polling** The Time Series Chart will not refresh its time range if it is zoomed in. Previously, polling data would refresh the chart and bring the zoom back out to the base time range (1x). This was cumbersome if you wanted to zoom in closely to scrutinize data. **14818: Allow pan/zoom to be disabled** Both the Time Series and Chart Range Selector have their enablePanZoom properties exposed as component properties so that a user can disable pan zoom behavior if they choose. This property is set to true by default. ---

Nightly Changelog: 8.0.5-b20190923 ## Ignition Platform **14968: Fix a race condition in OPC read-after-write** Fixed an OPC read-after-write race condition where it was possible for a read value to be older than a value supplied by subscription. **14955: Prevent the expression property from becoming a binding when overriding in a UDT** Fixed an issue where tag expressions could accidentally be turned into a binding by overriding the value in a UDT instance, which caused the original expression to no longer function. **14976: Badge is now set when adding a new user** Fixed an issue where RFID badge configuration was not set when adding a new user from the Gateway’s Config Web Interface. **14791: Fixes to handle a master redundant node gateway rename.** Fixed an issue where renaming a redundant Master Gateway was causing the backup’s Gateway Network Connection to go down, and was also causing clients connected to the Master to temporarily disconnect and reconnect. **14673: A redundant master will now send approved gateway network certs to the backup** A redundant master will now send approved gateway network certificates to the backup. Certificate denial and delete requests are also now sent to the backup. **14959: Set authentication methods on Ignition IdP token** Logging in to Ignition’s IdP will now set the authentication method (such as “badge” or “pwd”) to the “amr” attribute, allowing Security Levels to be granted based on how the user authenticated. **14813: Check for circular UDT inheritance during legacy tag conversion** Prevented a StackOverflowError that could occur during legacy tag conversion (7.# to 8.0+) in cases where UDT definitions contain circular inheritance. ## Perspective **13460: Allow columns in Table component to be invisible, but still make their data available via view params and selection.** Added a “visible” property to columns on the Perspective Table component. When disabled, the column we become hidden, but the underlying data is still accessible via view params and scripting. ## Reporting **14682: Avoid index out of bounds in reporting data sources tables when deleting last row** Prevented an IllegalArgumentException that could occur when deleting the last row under the “Selected Historical Tags” table on both Tag Historian Query and Tag Calculation Query data sources. ## Vision **8226: Fall back on openWindow when system.nav.openWindowInstance is called in the Designer** When calling system.nav.openWindowInstance in the Designer while the targeted window is already open, the function now swaps to the opened window and passes parameters properly. A warning will still be thrown, stating why a new instance wasn’t opened. ---

Nightly Changelog: 8.0.5-b20190924 ## Ignition Platform **14891: Fix UDT import + rename** UDT types imported with the Rename collision policy would add child tags to an existing UDT with the same name instead of the new UDT. **14784: UDT parameters are now merged instead of overwritten** Fixed an issue where the system.tag.editTag() script function was setting all other UDT parameters back to their default values when adding or modifying a UDT parameter. **14635: UDT Error Indicator** Updated error indication in the Tag Editor to better illustrate invalid UDT inheritance. The indication will appear in cases where the Parent Data Type references non-existent UDTs, or when there is circular inheritance. **14080: Add Oracle support to SECS/GEM module** SECS/GEM module can now be used with an Oracle database for equipment connections. ## OPC-UA **15034: Log warning instead of throwing when DataTypeTree browse fails** Made failed OPC UA DataTypeTree browsing attempts log a warning, instead of throwing an exception. ## Vision **14702: Add simple UDT type cache to the client tag manager to avoid slow performance** Made some changes to how UDT Definition caching worked, specifically with the intent to improve performance in Vision windows that contained many UDT bindings. ---

Nightly Changelog: 8.0.5-b20190926 ## Ignition Platform **14448: Parameter names that clash with alarm property and tag property names are resolved incorrectly** Fixed an issue where tag properties in alarm bound expressions were unable to resolve. **15045: Add the ability to create new projects on Exchange import and deal with Module/Platform version mismatches** Added the ability to create a new Project from within the Ignition Exchange Import Wizard - to be used as a target project for importing. **14882: Avoid NPE on bad response in DNP3 scripting functions** The DNP3 driver now guards against NullPointerExceptions in cases where a response isn’t received during scripting (binary and analog points) **14658: UDT parameters that shadow tag props don’t propagate value changes correctly** Fixed a bug where UDT parameters that share a name with a tag property (such as “TagGroup”) wouldn’t trigger value changes updates in member bindings (e.g., property on a member tag bound to a UDT parameter) correctly when the value of the UDT parameter changed. ## Perspective **14985: PieChart should make use of example and not default in schema** Corrected an issue where the Perspective Pie Chart component would attempt to merge default data with user configured data, which could potentially add unintended wedges. **14681: Fix Perspective Carousel memory issues** Fixed memory leaks in both the Carousel and Pie Chart components. Made additional improvements to the Pie Chart, including the ability to bend labels around chart slices and wrap long labels. ---

Nightly Changelog: 8.0.5-b20190927 ## Allen-Bradley Drivers **15067: Fixed a silent NPE after an error browsing template instance** Fixed a bug that left tags in bad quality and the driver to stop polling after encountering a missing template browsing v32 firmware. ## Build/Installation **14557: Fix installer warning message about WebDev/Web Browser not being updated on upgrade** Installer no longer incorrectly warns about not upgrading the Web Browser and Web Dev modules. ## Ignition Platform **15001: Access Denied when trying to edit MQTT tags with system.tag.configure** Editing MQTT tags through scripting not longer results in an Access Denied response. **14953: Import 7.9 tag parameters as class type String** When importing tags from a 7.9 export, the legacy conversion process will now convert all parameters to strings, to prevent any conversion exceptions that could potentially occur. **15032: Add property value back into OPC group item evaluation** Fixed an issue where Transaction Group items would only return the value of an item, regardless of what the Value Mode selection was set to. **13203: Better script wrappers for PropertyTrees** Improved the functionality of property tree related scripting objects, making them act more like Python lists and dictionaries. **14967: Do not include array element in tag path when attempting to retrieve tag info** Vision’s Tag Binding config editor window no longer throws a NullPointerException when manually binding array elements. ## Perspective **14943: TabContainer FlexRepeater Issue** The contents of a tab in the Tab Container will no longer overflow outside of the component under certain circumstances. **14956: Fix infinite execution loop caused by failing to mark all references clean when encountering a bad indirect tag binding reference** Fixed an issue where Invalid indirect tag binding references would generate high CPU usage. **14070: Fire model events only when page is connected to prevent queued tasks from executing, diff alarm table json to improve client side performance** Fixed an issue on the Perspective Alarm Status Table where the component continued to poll alarm data after the session was closed. Additionally, improved client side performance by updating data only when changes are present, and not every polling interval. ---
