APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The problem is that when screen is being reversed, HATS changes
  the layout of the whole page, including scroll bars, position of
  keypad. When only terminal itself  is reversed, application
  works quite natively and according to user expectation, but
  movement of the scroll bar causes problems for end users.

  *                      performs Screen Reverse action, the     *
  *                      IE browser frame (including vertical    *

  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  When reversing host screen the browser session reverses
  the scrollbar to opposite side of session.
  

Problem conclusion

• A new property, "enableBrowserGUIMirroring", was added to
  com.ibm.hats.common.RuntimeSettings section of the
  appication.hap.  Setting the value of this new property to
  false stops the mirroring of the browser GUI when the user
  reverses the emulation screen.
  

Temporary fix
