[fix] printing a script from developer
[fix] in Sybase 10, the string_rtruncation option has a deafult value of ON, whereas =< Sybase 9 had it set to OFF by default. This setting indicates to generate an exception when using the CAST command and a certain situation occurs. In Sybase 9 and before, the exception would be ignored by default, in Sybase 10 it’s raised. Due to this, Sample Data imports can fail in Sybase 10

[fix] unrelate(…) on related foundsets kept the sql join
[fix] error in printing when subsummary has more than three GroupByFields
[fix] threading problem in schedule plugin when used from batch processor
Changes in servoy_sample_crm
[enh] Removed the dialog tabpanel “workaround” - and changed all dialogs to native Servoy modal dialogs - so everything is web compatible.
[enh] Invoices with a CLOSED status are now not editable - and you are alerted when you click the “Edit” button
[enh] When you mark an CLOSED status invoice as OPEN, you can edit all the items
[enh] Added invoice status to the list of invoices displayed on the product
[chg] Removed the global functions that disabled the screen prior to the “fake” dialog calls - as they are no longer necessary with “real” dialogs
[chg] Upated the “edit” routines on all the main forms - so that checkboxes are editable in the Web Client
[fix] Updated the svy_mod solution to remove extra global methods that were no longer being referenced
[fix] Updated the global methods that opened the dialogs - there were too many arguments being passed and in the wrong order - causing strange results
[fix] Modified the svyWebCrm style to include “white” background fields - for checkboxes so they wouldn’t be colored grey after editing on contacts and invoices.
[fix] Changed sort of existing orders on products form to sort by order id
[fix] Set the navigation bar tabpanel to transparent on all the forms - to avoid the occassional grey bar on redraw of screen
[fix] Changed the date and number formatting on orders, contacts, companies to be US format - and not show the time on date fields
DBTreeView bean child nodes sorting support
The DBTreeView bean now allows sorting the child nodes through the bindNodeChildSortDataProvider(sort_column_provider) function. Use this function to set the name of a calculation. The calculation should return a string of the form . The children will be sorted on the column and in the order returned by this calculation.
Overriding error- and page expired pages
By using application.setUserProperty(…), the error page and page expired pages can now be set on a per-user basis. These properties are servoy.webclient.error.page and servoy.webclient.pageexpired.page, respectively.These override the properties by the same name from the admin page. The defaults must be set in the admin page for the user properties to work.
Style support for navigator
The default navigator can now be styled using the classes navigatornumber, navigatornext, navigatorprev, navigatorfirst and navigatorlast.
Example:
.navigatornumber
{
font: 10pt "Arial";
}
.navigatornext
{
display: none;
}
.navigatorprev
{
display: none;
}
.navigatorfirst
{
display: none;
}
.navigatorlast
{
display: none;
}
