[RTI Issue ID ADMINCONSOLE-1330]

[RTI Issue ID ADMINCONSOLE-1366]

4.5.4.4. [Major] Sequences with a single element did not display as expected

Admin Console logged an exception and did not properly display the contents of Topics that contained a sequence of a single element.

[RTI Issue ID ADMINCONSOLE-1360]

4.5.4.5. [Minor] Admin Console required Rosetta to open on ARM-based Mac machines

Admin Console did not open on ARM-based Mac machines without Rosetta installed. Rosetta is the x64 emulation layer in macOS. This behavior was caused by the way RTI_AdminConsole.app was generated, causing the OS to mistakenly think that it was an x64 application. RTI_AdminConsole.app is now detected as a native application, so Rosetta is no longer needed to launch it.

4.5.4.6. [Minor] Python Preference page did not display when using unsupported Python version

The Python Preferences page was inaccessible when using an unsupported Python version. The page now displays when using an unsupported version, and the interface provides the expected visual feedback.

[RTI Issue ID ADMINCONSOLE-1344]

4.5.4.7. [Minor] Documentation failed to open from the Help menu

Admin Console documentation failed to open from the Help menu on macOS when Safari was the default browser. This issue was due to Safari’s handling of redirects. It was resolved by providing a link to the target page, which then allows opening it in a new tab.

[RTI Issue ID ADMINCONSOLE-1332]

4.5.4.8. [Trivial] Publication command not disabled in offline mode

The context menu Publish button was not disabled when working in offline mode. If selected, an error was triggered in the console log indicating that it was not possible to create the publisher. The Publish button is now disabled in offline mode.

[RTI Issue ID ADMINCONSOLE-1346]

4.5.4.9. [Trivial] Python log messages displayed as error output on some Windows machines

When publishing samples, Python log messages were mistakenly redirected to the standard error stream on some Windows machines. As a result, the messages displayed in the Error output area. Python logs now display in the Console output area as expected.
