Re: Outline view

I have seen this as well. If I'm remembering this right, this usually happens when the field(s) is output only. It seems the outline view is populated from input record formats.

In other cases, it seems that a cached file description in WDSC is not getting refreshed. This occurs when adding fields to a file, and trying to make those new fields visible to outline. I usually end up clearing the two cache features, end and restart WDSCi.

FWIW, most of my trouble with this ended when I unchecked the "Use cached information to restore the Remote Systems view" on the Remote Systems preferences. I think I also changed an option to close all editors before shutdown, but I can't remember where that was....

hth,
Eric

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Outline view



I notice there are many times where the fields that are used in my program do not appear on the OUTLINE view, even after I repeatedly refresh the outline view. When I search for the fields, they do come up with the search, so I know WDSC does see them. I have even tried shutting down WDSC and restarting it, and then refreshing the outline view, but the fields still do not show up.

Does anyone know why these fields are not included in the outline view?

Thank you,

Doug
