                                Alarm Status
                                                Alarming
                                            
                                            
                                                Fixed an issue causing remote tag providers to render in lower-case in alarm status tables and queries
                                            
                                        Auditing
                                                Security
                                            
                                            
                                                Fixed auditing records that used a scope of none when the scope is known so that audit records would now contain the scope.
                                            
                                        Build
                                                Infrastructure
                                            
                                            
                                                Fixed an issue where the Micro800 module would be uninstalled on upgrade when using the executable installer.
                                            
                                        Drivers
                                                Comms
                                            
                                            
                                                Added validation to the Modbus driver configuration UI in the gateway that prevents users from creating address mappings that include more than 65,535 registers, or registers with addresses larger than 65,535.
                                            
                                        EAM & Redundancy
                                                Gateway Network
                                            
                                            
                                                Fixed issue where EAM agent wouldn't show as connected until first stats are sent to controller.
                                            
                                        
                                                Gateway Network
                                            
                                            
                                                Fixed an issue where sending a project through EAM would trigger multiple update notifications on open Vision Clients.
                                            
                                        
                                                Gateway Network
                                            
                                            
                                                Restarting gateways with redundancy configured is no longer necessary when roles are changed. The gateway's ability to make configuration modifications will be updated when role is changed.
                                            
                                        Gateway Network
                                                Gateway Network
                                            
                                            
                                                Fixed issue where duplicate message ID could be sent causing blip in Gateway Network connectivity.
                                            
                                        
                                                Gateway Network
                                            
                                            
                                                Fixed issue where sequence of renames of a gateway could break Gateway Network connections in one direction.
                                            
                                        Java - Azul

                                                the launcher EXEs now have the correct file version which matches the product version for that release.
                                            
                                        OPC

                                                Fixed an issue in the Dropdown component that prevented the selection style from applying to options with a value of 0 or null.

                                                Perspective session prop `session.props.auth.idpAttributes` now contains a property named `authnResponse` with a string value of the SAML Response XML when the project IdP is a SAML IdP

                                                Fixed an issue where the Internal Historian could use other aggregation modes besides LastValue when querying tag history for String values.

                                                Fixed an issue where database user sources with autogenerated tables were failing with "ORA-00942: table or view does not exist" when using Oracle DB.

                                                Fixed an issue where unsupported calls to system.user methods were not handling exceptions consistently.
                                            
                                        Vision

                                                Reverted a change made to Vision components that was causing an erroneous "date format access on asynchronous thread" error to pop up.
                                            
                                        
                                                Swing
                                            
                                            
                                                Fixed an issue where the Power Table's Column Chooser Menu was not scrollable and could go off screen.
