Known Issue

Solution

|---|---|
|
Viewing mashups directly from within ThingWorx Composer for the first time can result in a message saying that the user does not have a valid licence.
|
Workaround: Reload the mashup.
This issue will be addressed in a future ThingWorx Apps release.
|
|
Extra white space appears on the Status page when configuring a piece of equipment.
|
This issue will be addressed in a future ThingWorx Apps release.
|
|
On an asset for which IndustrialThingShape has been added as an implemented shape, changing the connection specified in the IndustrialThing property results in a broken connection.
|
Workaround: Reinitialize the Kepware server.
This issue will be addressed in a future ThingWorx Apps release.
|
|
In Asset Advisor, the Additional Properties and Monitored Properties tables take more than five seconds to load because the GetAdditionalProperties service is executing slowly.
|
Ensure that remotely bound properties have a Cache Method setting of Read from server cache rather than Fetch from remote every read.
The Cache method setting controls whether property values are read from a property cache that is maintained on the ThingWorx server, or are read directly from the Edge device. The Read from server cache setting causes property values to be read from the server-maintained property cache, which is more performant.
