Patches
5.3.2 – patch release – 2020/11/20
Client-side
- File download hyperlinks, embedded in the custom HTML content provided by your DFdiscover server, now work correctly in the login dialog of desktop applications.
- A permissions checking bug which impacts the return result of dftrigger() when the subject ID is not the current subject ID has been resolved.
- DFsetup has been updated, fixing a bug, so that all available coding labels for choice fields are included for translation.
- In the event that the Import Definitions dialog is closed while waiting for the setup of the requested study, DFsetup now safely handles the server response.
- This change improves the performance of DFcollect in low bandwidth and/or high latency environments (update available via Google Play and App Store).
- The following updates have been applied to DFexplore:
- in Schedule View, when using the Save As Excel action, ensure that the fill color for ongoing, scheduled subjects is applied correctly.
- When choosing Save As PDF and the blank CRF book option, respect the Subject Alias preference, pre-printing either the numeric Subject ID or the Subject Alias, or a new option to not print any Subject identifier at all.
- When listing field or page history, permissions are enforced by the DF_SBhsitory report, not DF_ATmods as shown.
- When using the Metadata panel and adding a second query to the same data field, prevent this second query from being dropped during a Refresh action.
- In List View, all matching data is now output when the Subject filter is used in combination with cross-plate criteria.
- In List View, ensure the Expression filter is always visible when toggling between the Plate, Module and Custom sub-panels.
- In Data View, the Unset Page Missed interaction has been simplified so that only one confirmation dialog is needed removed.
- In the metadata panel, now display field help as default.
