-Resolved a perfomance issue when openeing a GWS. - IG-7091
The performance of loading Dynamic Segmentation queries has dropped significantly in version 16.2 as compared to version 16.1. A Dynamic Segmentation query created in 16.1 took 1 min 57 seconds to complete with GeoMedia.exe at 773 mb memory use upon completion. The same query opened in 16.2 did not complete in 25 minutes where the GeoMedia.exe was only at 348 mb memory use. The 16.2 query was manually terminated using task manager and not allowed to complete.
-Problem importing GTech legend and then saving .gws. - IG-6773
Issue/error occurs when saving workspace because imported GTech legends Style Properties with advanced tab attribute based expressions. The problem is in the style rules list separator "In (...)" function which should be a semi-colon ";" but is a comma ",". In the style properties dialog if the list separator "In (...)" function expression is changed from “,” to “;”the error will not occur and the .gws can be saved without an error. This is on German machine with German GM configured.
-GM 16.2: Unable to connect new library via SQL Read-Write & Read-Only connection. - IG-7215
When attempt to connect to GeoMedia Library stored in MS SQL the following error occurs:
*******
GeoMedia Desktop
Unable to create library database objects. Standard metadata tables may be missing.

This error in 16.2 prevents use of MS SQL Libraries and occurs despite connecting using the same user credentials as used in the successful 16.1 connection.
