Error description
In RDi v9.6.0.12 there is a menu action Resequence All Lines under Source on the main menu bar when editing a source member, which can be used to evenly renumber the sequence numbers of the source lines of the member being edited. In RDi this action now sets the editor view to incorrectly indicate there are no outstanding edit changes to save; which further causes the Save icon on the main toolbar to be greyed out and disabled. It incorrectly does this even if there were unsaved changes before resequencing. It should be leaving the editor in un-saved state if it already was, and setting un-saved state if there were any resequence changes to make. Note: There is a preference under Remote Systems LPEX Editor for the resequence settings. Resequence lines at save can also be turned on there to automatically resequence with every editor save, which would alleviate any need to manually request a resequence. Workaround: Type a few spaces in the editor to once again change the editor to un-saved or dirty state after invoking the Resequence All Lines action.
Local fix
NA
