Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *
  * All users of Rational Integration Tester                     *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * If a user saves a Rational Integration Tester project        *
  * without anything being selected in the Logical View pane,    *
  * then, on reload of the project, Rational Integration Tester  *
  * could appear to choose an arbitrary zoom/location for        *
  * Logical View.  This could result in the user seeing what     *
  * appeared to be a blank page in Logical View because the      *
  * objects were not on screen.  The only workaround available   *
  * was to ensure that an item was selected before saving the    *
  * project, so that Rational Integration Tester would ensure    *
  * that the selected object was displayed on reload.            *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  * Users should either ensure that an object is selected in     *
  * Logical View before saving or upgrade to Rational            *
  * Integration Tester 8.5.1.2.                                  *
  ****************************************************************
  

Problem conclusion

• From version 8.5.1.2 of Rational Integration Tester if, on
  project load, there is no selected object in logical view then
  the view is set-up such that the center of the leftmost object
  on the canvas is in the display area.  This avoids the situation
  whereby a user sees a completely empty canvas on reload and
  wonders where their objects have gone.  The alternative, of
  selecting an object before save, still works.
