IJ33565: GRAPHICAL ASSIGNMENT - DYNAMIC SIZING ON ASSIGNMENT VIEW NO LONGER WORKS

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In the Graphical Assignment (GA) application dynamic sizing on
  the Assignment Vew tab no longer works.   This is a problem as
  it makes it harder to make assignments from the craft area to
  the individual labor as often you cannot see both at once since
  there is unneeded blank space between the assignments and the
  labor.
  
  In 7610 IFix 008 and before it worked.   Sometime after that
  (and by 7610 IFix 013) it stopped working.
  
  Dynamic sizing means that if there are 5 assignments for that
  craft on one date and time, it makes a space 5 rows high on
  that date.   When you move to another date and time that only
  has 2 assignments, it collapses the 5 rows down to 2.   If you
  scroll to another date/time that has 7 assignments it opens up
  the space to be 7 rows high.
  
  STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
  1. Create 5 workorders that start on the next Monday at 7am.
  Give each a duration greater than zero and a planned labor of
  the same craft.
  2. Create 2 more workorders that start 2 days later at 7am.
  Give each a duration greater than zero and a planned labor of
  the same craft as the one used above.
  3. Go to GA and create a new Work List with a query to select
  all the WO created above.
  4. Click on the Assignment View tab.
  5. Zoom in so you can see only next Monday.
  6. The space for the craft will be tall enough to accommodate
  the 5 assignments.
  7. Now scroll the date ribbon over 2 days so that Monday is no
  longer visible and only the day with the next 2 assignments is
  shown.
  
  RESULTS:
  The vertical space allocated for the day with the most
  assignments, 5 on Monday, stays allocated even when Monday is
  no longer visible instead of collapsing down to the 2 rows
  needed 2 days later.
  
  EXPECTED RESULTS:
  For the vertical space 2 days later to collapse down to the 2
  rows needed, bringing the labor rows up so that they can be
  seen directly below the assignments.
