Revision 16665 (Modified on 2025-05-16): The DefaultValue of PCIgnoreContent was set to false, but should be False to be ignored. Same for IgnoreContent on PlacingContainer.

IgnoreContent sets the underlaying flex-content to zero instead of the default auto (before it was set to content, but since content has poor browser support we switch auto) This will be especially god in ListViews that you want to make to lign up as columns. Currently not implemented in WPF

March 2025

Revision 16526 (Modified on 2025-03-31): New property on selfVM called DisplayMode - that has one of the values enum DisplayModeEnum { UINormal, UIModal, UIPopup,Technical, RestPost, RestGet, RestPatch, RestPut,RestDelete }; Since ViewModels may have multiple usages it is good to be able to know the current use
Revision 16524 (Modified on 2025-03-27): Spans, ecopkg, and actions.actions xml files are now stored with a newline per attribute - to facilitate easier diff in git
Revision 16518 (Modified on 2025-03-26): In ViewModelEditor tree - if PlacingContainer has Visible or Style expression - these now shows as subcolumns
Revision 16512 (Modified on 2025-03-25): DeleteReasonSolveMethod may act on data and it was not enclosed in the delete transaction - it is now DynamicEnumString did not implement IComparable and if used in a orderby expression it then failed Minimum slider of ViewModel in WPF designer has been increased to 6400 pixels Modlr check if clipboard sometimes fails with com-exception and we did not catch all - fixed
Revision 16498 (Modified on 2025-03-21): Modlr WebView2 reload safeguarded. In Turnkey we upgrade new keys when objects are saved with a special command - if your UI was only transients (or new unsaved objects) all keys are monitored for upgrade - and this logic failed when having nestings over a singlelink - then the replace of a singlelink value was mistaken as a key change - and this gave ripple effects further down the viewmodel graph - ending up as ghost rows in multilinks below the swap key point. Fixed
Revision 16480 (Modified on 2025-03-20): Menu command AddSelectedIntoNewPC now works from outside the ViewModelTree
Revision 16468 (Modified on 2025-03-18): DragDrop in ViewModel-web was impeded by initial space in html class info - its now more robust
Revision 16467 (Modified on 2025-03-18): In the ViewModelEditor- the controls for advanced edit's background now has the same RightClickMenu as the ViewModel-tree , this will save you some dragging... In the ViewModelEditor- the controls for advanced edit for Column that ends in something classy but does not have an Associated nesting yet will enable a new button "Create Nesting" for people that work backwards
Revision 16461 (Modified on 2025-03-17): BREAKING CHANGE: extra parameter added to https://wiki.mdriven.net/index.php?title=Documentation:OCLOperators_OnDelete OnDeleteReasonSolve(reason:string; checked:Collection(SysSuperClass)) method DirtyListServiceImpl could create deadlocks and has been rewritten to TryRetryLock, this lead to dirtylist maybe null and some updates to handle this Fixing WPF wecpof ReadOnly-symbol-updating
Revision 16457 (Modified on 2025-03-14): Missed nullcheck in EnsurevCurrentIsWithinAndIfNotOrNullDoFirst could leave modal window empty - fixed LiveEdit timeout could give exception dialog - fixed
Revision 16453 (Modified on 2025-03-12): ModelUpload timeout extended from 1:40 to 10min - needed in extremely hard network conditions
Revision 16451 (Modified on 2025-03-12): BREAKING CHANGE: in AfterModalOk in actions we no longer provide vModalResult_selfVM variable. It was an old mistake that that in WPF the handover of vDirties to instigating view did not happen correctly - so vModalResult_selfVM.save was sometimes used. The mistake/bug is removed and hand-over of dirties is now the same in Turnkey and WPF - but vModalResult_selfVM.save would then be moot - and to signal this change the vModalResult_selfVM variable was removed altogether from AfterModalOk. There were also issues in turnkey when handover sometimes caused nullref exceptions and breaking signaling
Revision 16445 (Modified on 2025-03-07): Codegen issues "ProjectItem.Kind" sometimes throws exceptions "Item not in collection" - we now ignore, CodeElement codeElement in ecoNameSpace.Children) // <- on class deletion this fails from time to time, "Syntax node is not within syntax tree" , trying again seems to work Better null check in some diagram actions

Revision 16441 (Modified on 2025-03-05): Issues with WebView reworked - it now manages to restart after failure
Revision 16440 (Modified on 2025-03-04): In modlrTree when going .Something it did not filter correctly
Revision 16439 (Modified on 2025-03-04): Paging of AutoClass diagram when many associations
Revision 16436 (Modified on 2025-03-03): ViewModelWPF datatables now populates contextmenu if alt or control is held to better honour keyboard shortcuts without extra work FindInModel key shortcut to bookmark now works Sometimes AccessGroup and other modal dialogs came up blank due to too late init of WPFDequeuer WebView2 could kill the app - now caught and stopped "Bookmark this" moved to Misc group
Revision 16435 (Modified on 2025-03-03): ViewModel filter has been extended to "filter or find" - moving the hilite functinality into tree only and making it available for WebView edit as well ViewModel editors (WPF and Web) now has a quick-switch button to the other variant (wpf->web , web->wpf)
Revision 16434 (Modified on 2025-03-02):

Revision 16423 (Modified on 2025-02-28): Ability to bookmark from Tree, Diagram and errorlist, and search ; this greatly simplifies batch work as a developer - a fantastic feature inspired by Notepad++ Old issue found a and corrected : Major oversight that IndirectMultiAssociationEndCachePolicy was not handled by deserialize Issue with DoNotPersist-TV in modelLayer when having singlelinks with AssociationClass (new feature Bookmark)

Revision 16383 (Modified on 2025-02-12): A mistake was discovered in the ecopgk file - that we persisted the reference to the placedclass from all class features that was explicitly picked on a placedclass. This was redundant and gave unwanted size increase of ecopkg files. Use of this version MAY make a lot of diff when checking in ecopkg files stating <PlacedClass> reference drops - this is expected and ok - the information is safe in the .diag file owning the PlacedClass
Revision 16382 (Modified on 2025-02-12): Better logging in JsonToObjects RightJust of page size picker in Seekers, angular and blazor Designer issue with combo for MountedViewModel not always updating; fixed
