Re: Visualisation of Data Element of Value Type - Organisation Unit

 

Abyot,

have you fixed the issue of the uid being displayed for value type
ORGANISATION_UNIT instead of as expected the NAME?

I saw when testing 2.25 yesterday the the COORDINATE data type is now
having coordinates rounded to six decimals, so that's fixed.

The double-display of TEXT value fields without optionsets is also critical
to fix.

Regards
calle
