Hi everyone,

As mentioned in the title, Utility entities that have an EXT layer are marked with a blue icon in Developer Studio. However, when I right-click any of these entities, the "Customize This" option is missing from the context menu.

For entities without the blue icon, the option is available, and I can customize them without any issues.

This wasn't a problem before, and I was previously able to customize these entities without any issues. I suspect that a recent Developer Studio update may have introduced this behavior, but I couldn't verify it because I wasn't able to find the relevant changelogs.

What I've already tried:

  • Refresh Folders from the project root.

  • Clear and Refresh PLSQL File Cache from the project root.

  • Refresh Cache from the Build menu.

  • Clear and Refresh from the Build menu.

  • Verified that the affected Utilities have not been customized previously (no existing CUST layer).

  • Disconnected and reconnected the Build configuration.

Unfortunately, none of these steps resolved the issue.

Has anyone else experienced this? Could this be a bug introduced in a recent Developer Studio update?

Environment Details

IFS Version: 10.14
