Known Problems and cautions

Forms created with versions prior to 2.10.0025 will need to be re-imported to be fully compatible with the current Custom Forms subsystem.

There are no other known problems.

 

System Re-boot - Font Installation - The installer will detect whether a system re-boot is required to recognize fonts. If prompted to do a re-boot, please do so immediately. Deferring the reboot until after running other installation programs may prevent proper font registration. If prompted to do a reboot, it is likely that fonts will not be properly recognized until the reboot has been completed. 

 

GBM Mobile and GBM Portable Users Installing GBM Pro will upgrade components of the Forms Manager that are shared with GBM Mobile and GBM Portable. GBM Mobile V5 will operate as normal with forms that have been updated through the new forms manager but may not support the extended features. The new features will be supported in the upcoming GBM Mobile V6 and GBM Portable V5 releases.

 

Documentation Please use this system with the V2.10 user manual. 

 

 

Upgrade between 2.10.0024 and 2.10.0025

General

·         The following problem has been fixed: 1) The user selects a map object that is associated with a custom form by using the MapInfo Select tool. 2) The user then uses the Attributes tool on a map object in the same layer but not the selected object. 3) The user changes an attribute and saves the change. 4) The map object disappears. In fact, it is moved to the map object that was originally selected with Select tool and so it appears to have disappeared.
