Issues that this hotfix rollup package fixes
This hotfix rollup package fixes the following issues.
 * After you minimize the SharePoint Web part, Internet Information Services stops unexpectedly when you refresh a view that contains a chart.
 * ProClarity for Reporting Services displays an error when you try to access the link to the ProClarity Analytics Server page that is generated during the export process.
 * When you add a new view to the My Views folder, you are redirected from the ProClarity Analytics Server page to the My Views page of the new view.
 * When you use the &quot;Drill to Detail&quot; feature to drill to details on more than 3000 records, the Get all rows view is empty. Additionally, the &quot;Drill to Detail&quot; feature runs much more slowly in ProClarity Analytics Server than in ProClarity Desktop Professional.
 * In ProClarity Analytics Server, the Standard Edit Dimension dialog box displays the members of a set instead of the name of the set.
 * The print preview feature of ProClarity Analytics Server does not work if the total width of the columns of a view is larger than the paper width.
 * Unicode uppercase characters are incorrectly encoded in ProClarity Web Standard.
 * When you try to export a split view to Microsoft Excel in Web Standard two times, you receive an &quot;HTTP 500&quot; error page the second time.
 * The customized background color of a grid header does not appear in ProClarity Web Standard.
 * When you try to retrieve a book, you receive an &quot;Unspecified Error&quot; warning message in ProClarity Desktop Professional. Or, you receive an &quot;XML document must have a top level element&quot; error page in the Analytics Server Administration Tool.
 * When you print a whole book in ProClarity Web Standard, the customized grid formatting in the printed results is incorrect. The incorrect formatting includes background colors.
 * ProClarity Dashboard Server incorrectly interprets a key performance indicator (KPI) status range if the value uses a comma as a decimal separator.
 * The default navigation user preference for the &quot;expand/collapse&quot; behavior does not appear in ProClarity Dashboard.
 * A view that is added to the My Views folder is unexpectedly removed after you save the view multiple times by using the same name.
 * When you run a query in Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services, the query takes a long time if multiple parameters are specified. Additionally, the query may time out in Internet Information Services (IIS).
 * The Svchost.exe process that hosts the World Wide Web service (W3SVC) consumes lots of memory. This behavior occurs when users use Web Standard views that contain parameters in ProClarity Dashboard.
 * Excel does not recognize the currency cell format when you export currency data that is not of the U.S. locale.
