SteveSBE Posted November 5, 2017 Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) Hi - I have an issue where some of my program names are not found when using the Find/Replace function in the Program Details tab. It will find the program name within other programs that reference it but will not find the program name in the Program Details tree. This happens when I search for some programs but doesn't happen for all searches of program names. To see what I mean feel free to view a video I created at link https://www.screencast.com/t/O33xrY8joO where I search for the program name "p Woodstove Manual Switch Offx". The video starts with the program highlighted so that you know what I was searching for. I clicked on the Find button multiple times to cycle through the search. But the search only finds the program name in two other programs that use it and it never finds the program in the Program Details tree. My questions are: Would this cause issues in execution of these programs? (I have noticed intermittent (but not consistent) non-execution of the program I search for in the video but attributed that to occasional line interference.) What did I do to cause this issue? Do you have any suggestions on how to find and correct all of these similar problems? I'm on version 4.6.2 and run the Admin console in Windows 10 with the most recent Java updates. Thanks for your replies! Steve Edited November 5, 2017 by SteveSBE
Michel Kohanim Posted November 5, 2017 Posted November 5, 2017 Hi Steve, This will not cause any issues with program execution. We will investigate, and if a bug, we'll fix in 5.0.x and, if not, we'll post back a remedy. With kind regards, Michel

With kind regards, Michel Thanks Michel - I want to let you know a couple things in case they are pertinent.... I also have cases where the program search will find the wrong program. I may search for "xxx p Woodstove MS FR Off" but the search function finds "xxx p Woodstove MS FR On". I also discovered that I was inadvertently running v 4.5.1 of the UI with 4.6.2 of the firmware. I deleted the Java files and emptied my browser cache and then used the 4.6.2 US but continued to have the problem. I had to re-install Windows 10 (complete re-format and reinstall) within the past week. Steve
Michel Kohanim Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 Hi Steve, Thank you. Can you please let me know the results when you enclose the search string in quotes (" ")? With kind regards, Michel
Chris Jahn Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 Hi Steve, Whether searching for raw text, node, variable, programs, etc., the Find/Replace searches the contents of your programs, not the actual names of the programs. I'll add a feature request to the list to search for the actual program by its name rather than its content (i.e. find the program itself, not the set of programs that reference it).

Chris - I didn't catch that...swear it did it before. My mistake! In the request make sure that both the content and program name is searched. The content is the most important anyways.

SteveSBE Posted November 7, 2017 Author Posted November 7, 2017 (edited) Hi Steve, Thank you. Can you please let me know the results when you enclose the search string in quotes (" ")? With kind regards, Michel Hi Michel - When I search for a program using the program search I can only select from the lists in the search box so I cannot put quotes around the program name. As Chris pointed out, this search finds the name only in the content of programs...something I didn't realize and would swear it did before. This is confusing to me...that it doesn't find the program name no matter where it is in the program tree structure...so I'd prefer it find it in both programs' content and program names. When I search using raw text the program name is not found within the content of other programs. However it does find the program name in the program itself (whether or not there are quotes or no quotes). Hope this answers your question. Thanks for addressing this.
