Any other suggestion to “Selected Object“ ? Removed “Selected” text

  • PS_004 - 10.0.0.265  - Export Plugin - When running the export plugin in the Solution module, it is not working, and we are missing several pieces of information that we have in version 9.2.xx:

    a. It does not indicate the folder where the file will be created; ---> Documents\FrameworX\Transfers\
    b. What is the extension of the Plugin? ---> .dbplugin
    c. At the end of the export plugin, it shows the error 'Create component,' and it does not generate the plugin file (we also do not know the location where it will be generated), and the error message text should be 'Create Plugin.'
    d. Even though the file was not generated, we notice that the plugin overwrote the Solution1.dbsln file as shown in the Welcome image.
    e. Attached is the solution folder, where the HeaderLayout template was used, but as it was overwritten, it only contains the items selected for export.
    f. In the Solution module, in Import Plugin, there is no command to refresh the list of plugins, and the folder selector does not work; it does not allow selecting the path where the plugins are located.
    g. In the Solution module, there is no screen to view the installed components as in v9.2 (see the last image), which shows the installed plugins and the respective version in the project to indicate if the external file has version changes.
