Error description
Change in the behavior of the replay function. At V5.2.6 level, when you click to check the replay box for one route, a checkmark appears in the box and that line is highligted. If you then click a second route, the same happens to it, but the first route clicked is no longer highlighted. That holds true if additional lines are also checked. The checkmark remains in the box for every route clicked, but only the route most recently clicked is highlighted. Then, when you right click and select the option to replay, only the highlighted route is replayed, not all of the checked routes.
Local fix
STRRTC - 546724 NM / NM Circumvention: There are multiple ways around this. For all of them the first thing to do is use filters on the Activity screen to limit as far as possible so that only routes that do need to be replayed are displayed. Option 1: If it is possible to use the filter so that all of the routes displayed need to be replayed, then just click on the replay checkbox in the column header line. That should both highlight and check all of the routes. Then, right click either the top or bottom line and select the replay option. Option 2: If it is not possible to use the filter so that all of the routes displayed need to be replayed, then examine the screen looking for blocks of consecutive files that need to be replayed. For any such blocks, either click the top route in the block, then press and hold the Shift key and click the bottom route in the block or vice versa. That should cause all routes in the block to be highlighted and checked. Then, right click either the top or bottom route in the block and select the replay option. Option 3: If the filter has a number of routes that need to be replayed, but each one has a route that does not need to be replayed both below it and above it, click one of the routes as normal first. For all the rest, press and hold the control key, then click each of the other routes. All the routes that need to be rerouted should be highligted and checked. Then, right click either the top or bottom highlighted line and select the option to replay. You will need to add a comment each time that you click the replay option, but each highlighted line should be replayed and take the comment. Depending on how well the filters work to limit the diplayed routes to ones that need to be displayed, you may need to click to replay a number of times, but not as many as if each route were done individually.
