Hi community,
I have to share my own disbelieve about the current Aras Release notes regarding Innovator 17:
I wrote the above post two years ago. Innovator 12 wasn´t released yet and I just had seen a short demo. Already at this time I knew that the lock behavior will make trouble as it produces a lot of unwanted revisions. But nobody had listened.
And now the unthinkable happened! Aras improved it! The release notes of Innovator 17 contains this piece of text which is shocking similar to my above description:
Quote:
[...]Previously, setting an item to “Edit” mode also claimed the item. Now, setting an item to “Edit” mode does not claim the item. [...]
[...]This provides users with greater control over item lock status.[...]
[...]Especially for automatically versionable items, this capability can be used to prevent the creation of excess automatic versions, preserving the business meaning of versions.[....]
I can´t believe it! I was right all the time!
I just write this post to share these two important messages:
1. I told you so ! [emoticon:388f399768cb4510bc3d4c26fd6771f6]
2. Feast upon my magnificence!!![emoticon:c28b2e4cc20f4ba28d1befdba6bed29c]
That´s an excellent start. Now I hope Aras will add my many other improvements ideas that I have submitted. It´s unbelievable just my patience suddenly pays off.

Additional remarks: I especially like how they translated my term "nonsense revisions" to "preserving the business meaning of versions." . That´s my favorite part in the release notes!
And TechDoc image drag'n'drop which finally replaces the shabby community project I once created to improve exactly THAT: https://github.com/AngelaIp/aras-image-uploader-for-tech-docs
And I like Client certificates.
It´s really unbelievable.
Good on you Angela, thank you for your dedication and commitment to Aras......you see 'they' are listening!
