Rule Editor to retain the last line or section

The Rule Editor now retains your last position. After editing a rule and closing the Rule Editor, when re-opening that rule, the cursor is placed on the line you edited last. Also, the expanded/collapsed state of all outlining regions will be maintained.

Note: When you close Inventor only the expanded/collapsed memory is retained, not the cursor memory.

Rename an internal rule

After renaming an internal rule, click Enter to confirm the change. Press the "Esc" button to discard changes.

Undo, Redo options in the iLogic Form Editor

The Undo and Redo buttons are now added directly to the Form Editor dialog. You can also use the shortcut keys (Ctrl-Z and Ctrl-Y) for these operations.
