Databrowser in Bentley Map SS2 Standalone act very strange

It has been fixed and verified in Bentley map 8.11.7.428.

Please notice the wrong properties names added cannot be remove. See the following notice from Development Team:

"When a property with accented character was edited in the DataBrowser, the name was not correctly decoded and a new property with the wrong name was added to the feature instance. This issue should be resolved with this fix, but existing instances which already contain a wrong property name still have it.

We do not have a function to remove a property from an instance in our API. The users could use the “Add>Schema Versioning” option for a feature in GSA and create an XSLT that will remove the bad property. The xslt would be run during feature reset command, or they could use the platform MDL API to modify the Xml fragment directly. See mdlXml platform API. They could also use xfmElement_isFeatureXmlFragment to identify the elements to update."

HTH,

Sebastien

Ok guys,

I finally be able to reproduce it in SS1 and SS2. I logged TR 313199 which said:

"[XFM] Editing attribute of an accented character property name don’t give expected display result in analyze window."

Thanks Erik for reporting it.

Just tried this in Bentley Map SelectSERIES 1 (08.11.07.113) and Bentley Map Enterprise (SelectSERIES 2) and could not reproduce. It behaved as expected.

Can I( get a copy of the drawing you are using ? Also is the attributes stored in the drawing or in a database ? If a database, then I would need a dump of that also.

Aha !! Now I found out what goes wrong! Look at these screendumps from before and after DataBrower editing:

And after:

Now the databrowser has created a new Property called Br__x00f8__ndNr. That points back to an old error in SS1 where a property value with the same name as the feature was misspelled this way when containing non-english caracters

Hope we can have a quick fix for this ...
