I've now had a chance to use RDP V8.0 more in depth, and so far it appears things are much more stable. Issues I encountered during my use of RDP V7.6 appear to be gone. For example, I have yet to lose any source code in Screen Designer, and other oddities have also disappeared. Even the preview tab in Screen Designer is working correctly!
I do have a couple of smaller issues though...they do have workarounds so it's not a great annoyance but would be nice to get fixed.
-- In Screen Designer, you can view the screen using "Browse With..." but can't click on some of the buttons in the Properties box. For example, you can't click the Indicators... buttons to see the values that were used. You must check out the display in order to do this, or switch to the source view and locate the information that way. What would be nice is being able to click on the buttons and see the values (but not be able to edit them when in Browse mode).
-- Also in Screen Designer, when adding a field onto the Subfile Control part of the screen, as soon as you finish editing, the view suddenly flips to the Subfile. For example, when editing a Text Constant on a Subfile Control, as soon as you click in another area of the screen, it switches to the Subfile screen. You have to go back up to the Design Page Screen Controls section and click on the Subfile Control screen ID (under the Records tab in the Included window) to get back to the Subfile Control screen. It should stay unless I specifically switch to it.
