Important changes have been made to External DLL Calls with LION Call Syntax:
- 32-bit calls are now obsolete for AMT – the parameters x86 or x64 have been removed.
- External DLL targets for .NET 8 are now always loaded internally within AMT. Therefore, the runtime behavior setting for this has been removed.
- New configuration settings in the sys.ini file:
- AMTCALLDLLNET48 indicates which external DLLs are based on the .NET 4.8 framework.
- AMTCALLDLLNET is used for external DLLs targeted at .NET 6.
- The FIXEXTERNALCALL setting has been removed from the sys.ini file.

| AMT LION | Developer | Printing | #85544
INC: 1238526 Some characters of 'tight' financial or signed labels on graphical reports got truncated after the new PDF library was introduced. Text clipping has been reintroduced for all graphical labels. Clipping is only applied if trimming the text does not suffice. Text trimming is now executed before clipping, to ensure that positive signed labels or positive financial labels (which use a trailing space for positive values and minus signs for negatives) fit within the available space. This resolves edge cases where labels slightly exceeding the limit now fit without clipping, ensuring proper alignment for both positive and negative values. |
