New Features and Resolved Issues

This release includes the version 16.0 features and fixes, as described in KB 7021849, plus the following additional features and fixes.

Key Improvements

  • Performance has been improved when loading multiple sessions or a layout file when the Reflection Workspace is configured for Centralized Management (using Micro Focus Host Access Management and Security Server, https://support.microfocus.com/product/?prod=MSS).
  • It is now possible to configure hotspots in unprotected fields if the session was created using the legacy InfoConnect session template.

API, Automation, or Macro issues

  • The “View.Closing†event will not be repeatedly fired when the InfoConnect Workspace is closed.
  • “Productivity†features that monitor keystrokes or record screen history are now disabled while a VBA macro runs, so that macro performance will be improved.
  • The “SessionFilePath†property has been added to the UTS/T27 and ALC terminal API objects.
  • The “IsPolling†property has been added to UTS terminal object.
  • A macro configured to run when InfoConnect starts will now execute correctly when multiple sessions are started from a layout file.

Other Resolved Issues

  • InfoConnect host sessions now load more quickly when using a redirected “My Documents†folder with “Offline files enabledâ€. Previously the InfoConnect Workspace would load quickly but the session settings file might appear to hang on load for 30 seconds to several minutes, depending on the environment.
  • The T27 session auto-complete feature will work even if the current field spans two lines.
  • UTS sessions will refresh display properly when the window is restored from maximized state.
  • Legacy InfoConnect sessions will now retain keyboard map selection after upgrading to InfoConnect Desktop 16.0.
