We upgraded to 7.7.03 hotfix 5 when we did all our move left move right icons or the button with arrows started to display arrows only. I understand that several people have or are experiencing similar problems. Anyone found a work around. Case already opened 81632029.

Hi Duane,

Have you noticed any other bugs with the hotfix release?
We are considering upgrade with the double-list control specifically in mind.

(Duane and I work together). How it handles styling on dual list controls has changed with the hotfix

Here's the rendered HTML from the box with 7.7.03 HF5

<INPUT style="Z-INDEX: 32; POSITION: absolute; BACKGROUND-COLOR: lavender;
 WIDTH: 24px; BACKGROUND-REPEAT: no-repeat; BACKGROUND-POSITION: center center;
 HEIGHT: 20px; TOP: 45px; LEFT: 218px" id=customselect1_addbutton tabIndex=30  value=" " type=button persistentuniqueid="compUid_46"
 StyleBack_UserSuppliedFullPath="1" StyleBack_rtFileName="htmlpathsub/javaassist-
 /ibi/html/describe/move_right_16.png" name="button4">
  

Here's the same element from the same composer page, rendered from the 7.7.03 server without the hotfix.

 <INPUT style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE:
 url(htmlpathsub/javaassist/ibi/html/describe/move_right_16.png); Z-INDEX: 32;
 POSITION: absolute; BACKGROUND-COLOR: lavender; WIDTH: 24px; BACKGROUND-REPEAT:
 no-repeat; BACKGROUND-POSITION: center center; HEIGHT: 20px; TOP: 45px; LEFT:
 218px" id=customselect1_addbutton tabIndex=30 value=" " type=button  persistentuniqueid="compUid_46" StyleBack_UserSuppliedFullPath="1"
 name="button4">
 

Only net difference I see is how move_right_16.png is declared.

new: separate attribute of the INPUT tag:
StyleBack_rtFileName="htmlpathsub/javaassist/ibi/html/describe/move_right_16.png"

old: imbedded in INPUT tag's style attribute:
BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(htmlpathsub/javaassist/ibi/html/describe/move_right_16.png);

Of course, the png files themselves may have changed.

--the PNGs are the same boring little up/down/left/right triangles.

There seems to be a workaround--Manually styling the buttons in composer to specify the background image.

We deploy via Managed Reporting, so it would involve tossing the images into the Other directory for each domain, and then editing 2 buttons on each affected launch page.

I'd really much rather do something server-wide. Manually styling is not very versatile, and if we end up using that control more frequently, then, ugh.

Many of our users use IE--when I open these pages in Firefox 8 or Chrome 19 for windows--no problem. Same for safari on my ipad.

IBI provided us with a fix--, so IE now gets the message on handling the custom attribute.

So for others in this boat or wondering about their own HF5 upgrade

• Seems to manifest on IE, but not necessarily other browsers
  
• Talk to IBI if it's an issue for you on 7.7.03HF5 (you might ask if the file 136754_7703_HF_Gen152_ibirls3.zip used in case 81632029 applies to your situation)
  
• You can manually work around it by styling your buttons (don't know why you'd want to, but you could)

To clarify, this issue is dealing with image sources. All images that have been created, modified, or moved around(including styling that has images) don't show up at run time. The report will still run. All old files will be fine as long as they are not modified with the composer tool(it will re-genereate with bad code).

The above fix is the solution, however, this fix and more will included in the 7703HF6.
