DIS 2.16
New features
IDE
Table editor now also allows 'RTDisplay' settings to be edited [ID 20200]
In the table editor, it is now also possible to edit "RTDisplay" settings.
- In the Options section, you can enable or disable the RTDisplay setting on table level.
- In the All Columns section, you can enable or disable RTDisplay settings on column level.
When you enable or disable the RTDisplay setting of a particular table parameter, a pop-up window will appear, asking whether you also want to enable or disable the RTDisplay settings of all columns of that parameter.
Also, in the Tables list on the left, warning icons will now appear next to table parameters with configuration errors.

Note
In DataMiner 9.6.4, Automation scripts require Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6 while QActions still require Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.
