  Incident Diagnosis
  Changing a license involves total recomputation of
  user interface. Opened workshops (Part, Drawing)
  must be recreated. This management was not
  correct,workshops remained marked so that
  recomputation was done each time a workshop
  switch occurred. This repetition was responsible of
  the instability
  .
  Correction Explanation.
  .
  Correction provided so that the each Workbench is
  computed only once.
