Behavior:
A user has opened many Search Dialogs in the Web Client. It would take very long to close all of these manually.
Cause:
Until DocuWare 6.10, there was no limit, on how many Search Dialogs can be opened, Since DocuWare 6.10 there is a limit of 10 instances per Search Dialog.
Solution:
You can close the opened Search Dialogs in the database. Opened Search Dialogs are saved in DWSystem.DWUsersettings.
The settings column looks like this:
<ContentAreas xsi:type="BasketAreaPreferences" AreaType="Basket" SelectedInstanceIndex="-1" StoreDialogsBarLocked="true">;
<;Instances ID="b_084952af-627a-44ad-9e74-4f47c69efa7a" />;
<;Instances ID="b_e5badbc8-a131-47ef-8395-fd071991d40e" />;
<;/ContentAreas>;
<;ContentAreas AreaType="Search" SelectedInstanceIndex="-1">;
<;Instances ID="d66120a9-734c-4e52-90d9-72ce5224a294" />;
<;Instances ID="d66120a9-734c-4e52-90d9-72ce5224a294" />;
<;Instances ID="d66120a9-734c-4e52-90d9-72ce5224a294" />;
<;Instances ID="d66120a9-734c-4e52-90d9-72ce5224a294" />;
<;Instances ID="d66120a9-734c-4e52-90d9-72ce5224a294" />;
<;Instances ID="d66120a9-734c-4e52-90d9-72ce5224a294" />;
<;Instances ID="d66120a9-734c-4e52-90d9-72ce5224a294" />;
<;/ContentAreas>;
<;ContentAreas AreaType="TaskList" SelectedInstanceIndex="-1">;
<;Instances ID="8e16c821-2014-49ad-801a-ae58a289fffc" />;
<;Instances ID="93c8cf8f-2b38-425a-b457-03de194d3ac8" />;
<;/ContentAreas>;
<;ContentAreas AreaType="Worflow" SelectedInstanceIndex="-1" />;
Copy the Content of the Settings Collumn, insert it into Notepad and remove all „<;Instances ID=……“ from Area Type "Search".
Update the edited Settings by an Update Statement: update dwusersettings set settings= ' EDITED SETTINGS ' where uid= X (X stands for the UID of the user. It can be found in DWUser table).
*Note: Before making any changes in the database, make sure, that you have a current backup of your database!
Since version 6.10:
It is now possible to close all opened search dialogs at once, with the "close all" button:
