Features
PRO-42584
[Event Handling] The _data functions "get/save/delete permanent" can now be used within _pro event handlings
PRO-42632
[Form Renderer] Timer elements will no longer trigger their event if the form is not part of an active view. This can be changed by switching off the new "Only when view active" option
PRO-42608

Bug fixes
PRO-42600
[Documents] Solved issues with viewing certain text documents. Viewing XML or JSON documents resulted in viewing a Base64 encoded byte array
PRO-42610
[Client Workflow][Data Grid][Event Handling] Improved click handling on custom columns in overviews. When a custom column in a data grid has a Client Workflow click handler and at the same time a defined Custom Event, the Custom Event is now dispatched as well instead of just the workflow. Also, both now only trigger with the primary mouse button instead of any mouse button
PRO-42511
[Client Workflow][Event Handling] Fixed minor rounding issues with the "Simple Calculation" value resolver when using divide with Long or Integer as result type
PRO-42614
[Client Workflow][Event Handling] The Simple Calculation resolver now returns NaN on division by zero
PRO-42633
[Custom Type Definitions] The type extension "Meta-Exchange" can now be removed without issues
PRO-30273
[Data Grid] Date column format expressions in overview list settings now use the entire row object as input value instead of the date value itself
PRO-40788
[Data Grid] Row double click handlers are dispatched more reliably. A deselection by clicking on the selected row will be delayed by about 500ms, preventing items from being selected and deselected again through double clicks
PRO-42594
[Database] Enhanced XML to JSON configuration migration logging output
PRO-42635
[Event Handling] The list item resolver with mode "add" now works with client structures too
PRO-42636
[Event Handling] Fixed issues with opening views that are opened while in a "Client logged in" or "Client reloaded" event handler, including views opened from the initially opened view. As long as these events have not been completely processed, the client is not fully booted and the base layout is not loaded, which caused cascading opened views to fail to load
PRO-42581
[Form Renderer] Solved issues with formatted text editors within a repeating element container
PRO-42624
[Form Renderer] Date fields take up their available width again
PRO-42618

PRO-42577
[UI] No more empty tabs opened after file downloads
