Bug fixes
Better support for system wide packages
When installing a package as a system-wide package we are looking for the executable in the system-wide package folder, for example C:\ProgramData\Keysight\Test Automation\Packages. This directory is also used as the working directory. This means that if the installer installs another program needed for a given plugin that will be installed in this directory.
Performance improvements for AnnotationCollection
Since the introduction of MenuAnnotations you might have experienced performance issues when dealing with large test plans. This release brings changes that significantly improve performance.
Bug fixes
In this release we have fixed a number of bugs:
Fixed an issue with assigning output to a test step that was loaded from a test plan using the Test Plan Reference test step.
Fixed a display issue in the test plan panel where the type of the test step wasn’t displayed correctly.
