Recording Dock Objects and Visibility Rules

Modified visibility rules are dropped during a development environment upgrade. Manually record any changes to dock object visibility rules, so you can evaluate whether you must reapply the changes after the upgrade is complete.

Dock objects and visibility rules created by using Docking Wizard are preserved unless they become invalid after the upgrade. Manually record any changes that you made through the Docking Wizard so that you can evaluate whether you need to reapply the changes after the upgrade is complete.

If you changed visibility rules after performing a repository merge, your changes will be preserved in the production environment but overwritten in the development environment.

NOTE:  Changes to visibility rules and dock objects require the assistance of Expert Services.
