Update: Ignition 7.2 has been released. Grab it from the downloads page.
[del]Hello beta-testers! We’re now making the Ignition 7.2.0 beta available for anyone who’d like to try it out. This build includes the Mobile Module as well.
Here is a rough changelog of what makes 7.2 different
[ul][li]OPC-UA system re-tooled for better performance[/li]
[li]New Mobile Module[/li]
[li]Stage-and-Publish system for projects[/li]
[li]Totally re-worked clustering.[/li]
[li]Designer window-editing workspace completely re-worked.[/li]
[li]Search & replace[/li][/ul]
Please use this thread as beta feedback as well.[/del]
So the first thing I do is create a new project.
Then I realize (cause this is a fresh install) that I’m missing my custom pallets.
Import them (after exporting them from 7.1.6) and try to use them and get errors like:

and warnings that say:
Data in clipboard in not a window or components
I like the tabbed window editor. Can I float the panes like I can with the other panels?
I have multi big monitors. I’d like to be able to place edit windows beside each other/on different screens/etc
Palettes: I have a feeling this has nothing to do with 7.2, but I’ll get to this later this week
Zooming: You need to switch it to zoom/pan mode. Press-and-hold and hit the “hand” button.
Update Project: This has been there all along. And yes, it grabs changes made from concurrent designers.
Commit messages: view the commit log in the gateway in the configure / projects section.
Floated editing spaces: Good idea. We are feature-frozen for 7.2.0 but we’ll keep it in mind.
For anyone wondering, w/ an iphone/ipod safari is around
320x356 in portrait mode. 400x208 in landscape.(Worst case, the url bar seems to disappear sometimes, more room then)
I’ve installed 7.2 on a virtual machine and configured a basic project, but when I try to launch the mobile link (either on the server, another PC on the network or an android phone) I get the following error:java.lang.Exception: Timeout waiting for new VM.
and on a related note, how often does each client ‘cleanup’ unused memory? I notice that the memory usage of a given java session(mobile) seems to creep up pretty quickly.
I added more guides but unclear on how to delete them. Why does the entire screen shift when trying to reposition a component? Also, components like the timer, signal generator, sound player does not show up on the screen.
[quote=“AlThePal”]…Timeout waiting for new VM.[/quote]You need to check you gateway logs. Maybe “java” isn’t on your path. The logs probably have a message like: [tt]Java path appears to be invalid, mobile VMs will not be able to be created.[/tt] with a reason next to it.
[quote=“Dravik”]Error 200[/quote]I’m looking into this one. I’ve seen it, but can’t pin it down. Do you see it repeatedly? Is it the result of something specific?
[quote=“Dravik”]how often does each client ‘cleanup’ unused memory?[/quote]Well, its up to the VM. They should act like normal client VMs, is this not the case?
[quote=“Joseph Mendonca”]I added more guides but unclear on how to delete them. Why does the entire screen shift when trying to reposition a component? Also, components like the timer, signal generator, sound player does not show up on the screen.[/quote]Guides: Drag them off the screen or right-click on them and choose “Remove Guide”.
Screen shift: This has been fixed - verify in next release
Timers, etc not showing up: Thanks, fixed this also
