NEW AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT LION Runtime AMT Screens #83840

INC: 1166490

In AMT Screens, if a Listbox on a form was only partially shown due to scrollboxes, clicking a row would fire both the OnSelect and the OnClick events, making the view shift.

The OnSelect is now only called when a row is selected in other ways, for instance in code.
FIX AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT COBOL Developer Code Logic #85142

In AMT COBOL, the MAXVALUE argument in DB2 CREATE TABLE wasn't supported. Using it did not throw an error but it was simply ignored.

MAXVALUE now generates correctly for PostgreSQL.
NEW AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT LION Runtime AMT Screens #85470

In AMT Screens Listviews, subsequent inputs changing the selected row or item could end up being reverted if done before the initial change was completed.

Block changing rows or selected items with a keystroke while a transaction is active has now been implemented for the Listview, Listbox and Combobox controls.
FIX AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT COBOL Developer Code Logic #85757

In AMT COBOL, the EXEC DB2 statement FINAL TABLE was not understood by the parser.

This issue has been solved. Also, changes have been made in the parser to handle the INSERT statement in subqueries.
CHANGE AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT COBOL Developer Code Logic #85775

In AMT COBOL, the statement PACKED-DECIMAL after VALUE ZEROS was not understood by the parser.

This issue has been solved.
NEW AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT COBOL Developer Code Logic #85797

The AMT-COBOL parser typically reported an error if it encountered a CICS VERIFY statement.

The AMT-COBOL parser now supports CICS VERIFY with options PASSWORD and USERID. It returns a response code NORMAL (0) for any non-empty userid and password, as verification already happens somewhere else. If the provided userid or password is empty, response code INVREQ (16) is returned.
NEW AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT COBOL Runtime Blazor Web Client #88350

In the Blazor Web Client, COBOL popups weren't visible.

This issue has been solved by applying the popup's default width and height at a later stage.
FIX AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT LION Control Center Various #90418

If a property was changed at runtime, Listview transactions could not be rendered in the Transaction Viewer, as properties' values were incorrectly used as values for controls.

Property Ids are now correctly resolved.
FIX AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT LION AmtTools AMT Screens #90620

It is now possible to remove access to help screens in AMT Screens, by adding line 'SHOWHELP=FALSE' to 'app.ini'.
NEW AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT LION | AMT COBOL Runtime Blazor Web Client #90669

Controls on a groupbox could not be interacted with anymore if they had a negative z-index.

Now all controls have a translated positive z-index, which solves the issue.
FIX AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT LION | AMT COBOL AmtTools Reo #91188

In the AMT Reorganize tool for new databases, system defaults were not analyzed after refactoring.

This issue has been solved by doing a restore of system defaults.
FIX AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT LION Runtime Blazor Web Client #91413

In the Blazor Web Client, Radiobuttons without captions were clipped, as a margin for a caption was still reserved.

Radiobuttons without captions no longer reserve a margin, and are therefore no longer clipped.
FIX AMT 156 MEDIUM
AMT LION | AMT COBOL Control Center Various #91454

New scheduled job entries could not be created in the AMT Control Center if Firefox was used.

The issue has been solved.
FIX AMT 156 MEDIUM

The screen has been returned to the system components for the AMT Application Center.
