Tech-Tip: A PTF for the InterForm400 Designer + Tip for designer upgrade
In some of the 2014 versions of InterForm400 the designer is not updating the result window – unless you e.g. scroll it up or down. This problem can be fixed either by upgrading InterForm400 to version 2014M10 or by installing this PTF:

To install the PTF you place the file in the IFS in /APF3812Home/PTFs and run these options in InterForm400:
12. Service functions
50. Apply PTF from the /APF3812Home/PTFs directory
Type the PTF number (4710) and hit Enter and confirm with F10.
When a designer connects it will then suggest to be updated.
TIP: If you have a problem with the upgrade of the designer: Try to right-click the designer icon when starting it and select ‘Run as administrator’ – that usually helps. If not you can find the new installation file in the IFS in /APF3812Home/Designer/2014M001-014/InterFormDesign-2014M001-014.exe – just download it to the C-drive and run it from there.
