20191107-01 Release Notes
| Type | RFC/Reference | Area | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| P | 201911-033 | Interface | Enabled icon group labels on [Workspace], [Readers] and [Catalogue] toolbars, bringing in line with Pergamon v2.x standards. |
| P | 201911-032 | Readers | Re-Enabled profile picture attachment display (only licenses above Primary). |
| T | 201911-031 | Readers | Corrected visual where Alternate HID (e.g. Admission number) was not being displayed in the Reader Manager dialog. |
| P | 201911-030 | Search | Refactored search queries in Search Dialog to utilise database views exclusively in preparation for the SQL Reporter Dialog (only licenses above Primary). |
| P | 201911-029 | Various | Switched data retrieval to a secondary thread and enabled progress wheel display on [Lookup Manager], [User Manager], [Reader Manager], [Catalogue Manager], [Search Dialog], BISON [Import Readers] and all OPAC searches. |
| P | 201911-028 | Search | Added ISBN / Serial No. to search dialog options for Item Catalogue and HUB Items. |
| P | 201911-027 | Catalogue | Specialist Library Licenses Only: Added a selective menu to the Catalogue icon to select alternate catalogues / collections when in use (defaults to main collection, as usual, if not). |
| P | 201911-026 | BISON | Full MARC importer (engine) re-write. Planned, but opportunity to account for a number of publisher idiosyncrasies that have been appearing in recent client files. |
| P | 201911-025 | Readers | Implemented new splitter-layout system (see 201911-023, see below) in Readers dialog. |
| T | 201911-024 | Catalogue | Corrected a minor visual issue where [Volume] field was not being reflected in the list box when updated (recording to the database worked as normal, and refresh of the list displayed the correct information). |
| P | 201911-023 | Catalogue | Due to inaccurate reporting of positions by browsers and in order to maintain application style-standards, the splitter-slider has been replaced with [+] and [-] buttons. Splitter position is now also carried across as a persistent value between sessions, as per Pergamon v2.x standards. |
| P | 201911-022 | Catalogue | Added a Maximise option toggle which displays the catalogue dialog at the maximum size possible for the page. A system level bug (browser / development language level) prevents the dialog from being resized [again] in this mode, but the Maximise Lock can be turned off to return the dialog formatting to normal. |
| P | 201911-021 | Interface | Dropped in-built toolbar due to limitation in icon sizes and functionality. Added bespoke toolbar matching Pergamon v2.x standards of desktop application. |
| S | 201911-020 | Catalogue | When creating a new item, the existing list is now cleared before adding. This is to cure a problem at a single site (but potentially possible at others), where in some situations the item list is slow to recognise a [second] new item, resulting in the wrong item being updated after a success [Update]. This may be connected with the implementation of the Listbox on a limited number of OS versions or browsers. |
| T | 201911-019 | Catalogue | Corrected an issue where the first ever created lookup value could be returned as the selection default, as opposed the the actual default (or none). |
| P | 201911-018 | Catalogue | Item creation now attaches all default Expanse indexing values (i.e. Audience, Reader Level etc.) on creation of the item, prior to first display of the new record. |
| T | 201911-017 | Workspace | Forced closure of the Local Settings dialog after cancel or save. Dialog was not being removed as at this time, the dialog contains no updatable information. |
| S | 201911-016 | Various | Scanner affix removal added to OPAC Search, Manager Search and OPAC Advanced search fields. |
| P | 201911-015 | Readers | Readers Manager now pre-emptively warns users of records already in editing mode with another user, preventing access to editable fields. |
| P | 201911-014 | Catalogue | Catalogue Manager now pre-emptively warns users of records already in editing mode with another user, preventing access to editable fields. |
| P | 201911-013 | System | Centralised application level knowledge of currently editing records at each client site now enabled. |
| P | 201911-012 | Readers | Re-enabled user restriction on creating new Readers Dynamic Expanse lookup items to suitably authorised users only (this change affects licenses above PRIMARY only - PRIMARY licenses do not have visible Dynamic Expanse controls. |
| P | 201911-011 | Readers | Re-enabled user restriction on creating new Readers Option lookup items to suitably authorised users only. |
| P | 201911-010 | Catalogue | Re-enabled user restriction on creating new Catalogue Dynamic Expanse lookup items to suitably authorised users only. |
| P | 201911-009 | Catalogue | Re-enabled user restriction on creating new Catalogue Option lookup items to suitably authorised users only. |
| T | 201911-008 | Lookup | Switched availability of SysKey field from [Enabled] to [ReadOnly] management due to Browser level changes re-enabling field outside of user permissions. |
| P | 201911-007 | Lookup | Lookup Manager expansion editors signed off for this coding period: String Literals now handed off to Automated Language Control (ALC) system. |
| P | 201911-006 | Readers | Reader Manager dialog signed off for this coding period: String Literals now handed off to Automated Language Control (ALC) system. |
| P | 201911-005 | Lookup | Lookup Manager dialog signed off for this coding period: String Literals now handed off to Automated Language Control (ALC) system. |
| P | 201911-004 | Readers | Re-enabled [Info] and [Manager] menus in Readers following user permissions testing. |
| S | 201911-003 | Readers | Blanks a reader DoB if one is not currently recorded in a reader record, rather than keeping previous entry. |
| T | 201911-002 | Lookup | Corrected an inverted test in the Alias SQL display code LU049. |
| P | 201911-001 | Users | Users dialog signed off for this coding period: String Literals now handed off to Automated Language Control (ALC) system. |
