    Resolved Issues

    The following issues were resolved in this release:
    • (URM-58302) Citation details sometimes overflowed the citation borders in IE (no word wrap). This was fixed.
    • (URM-58303) bX recommendations were sometimes only partially displayed. This was fixed.
    • (URM-63929) Chapter Information did not appear in the reading list page. This was fixed.
    • (URM-64374) There was a problem positioning the cursor when editing a section. This was fixed.
    • (URM-64535) The page/next/previous buttons appearing over a long list of physical items were incorrectly positioned as vertical in the UI. This was fixed.
    • (URM-64555) When there was a long list of suggestions in the right pane, the due date would be pushed off the screen. This was fixed by moving the due date above the list of suggestions.
    • (URM-64593) When viewing Leganto on an iPad, the display sometimes froze when clicking a citation in a reading list. This was fixed.
    • (URM-64631) No date available information appeared for citations with upcoming copyright availability. This was fixed.
    • (URM-64740) The material type was not copied when duplicating a list (citations defaulted to Book). This was fixed.
    • (URM-64982) When trying to drag a citation by the title, the citation was opened instead of dragged. This was fixed. An additional reported issue will be fixed in a future release.
    • (URM-66377) In a previous release, the parameter to change the header color was changed to only change the bottom line of the header and not the entire header. This was supposed to also affect the Login page, but it did not. This was fixed.
