Scripts
The following changes have been made to RiverWare scripts.
Expand and Collapse of Execute Script Actions
The Script Dashboard displays the subscript actions that an Execute Script will execute. A new arrow button has been added to collapse the sub-actions on the Script Dashboard.

Also, each Execute Script action now has a new setting titled Expand in Dashboard by Default. If it is set to Yes, then the Execute Script action will be expanded when the Script Dashboard is first opened, otherwise if No, it will be collapsed. This setting defaults to Yes, which matches the previous behavior of the Script Dashboard.
For more information, see Script Dashboard in Automation Tools and the Execute Script documentation Execute Script in Automation Tools
New Apply Window Layout Script Actions
The Apply Window Layout script action was added. This action applies the specified Window Layout. See Apply Window Layout in Automation Tools for documentation on this action or Window Layouts in User Interface for general information.
Memo Action Changes
The Script Manager will no longer raise above all other windows when a Memo script action pauses and displays a notification dialog. See Memo in Automation Tools for more information on this action.
Scrolling on the Dashboard
The Script Dashboard previously re-centered horizontally during script execution. This behavior has been improved to not scroll horizontally during Script execution.
Search Actions on the Script Editor
A new Search panel has been added to the Script Editor to find script actions. Use the Search panel to find an action by text, type, or value in the script editor.
