Anyone encountered the below 'bug' in Studio 3.82?

Preferences > Code & Log > Append Log (checked)

Submit code (e.g. proc print data=sashelp.class; run;) which outputs to Results.
Submit more code with outputs to Results - doesn't update Results
Clear log
Submit again - results updates.

Change preferences to "Automatically clear log"
Works as expected, but then you don't keep log.
Also, the 'previous code submissions' drop-down list for the editor window only updates after you clear the log.

 

Worth submitting a technical support ticket?

Hello,

I just tested on my 3.82 and am not seeing what you are describing.

Opening a Technical Support case would be your best option.  When you do, make sure you include a screen shot of your About window, and give detailed instructions on the steps you take to replicate the issue.  If you think screen shots would be helpful, by all means include them as well.

Suggest not clearing log when you are having issues like this. It is very likely that the log may have included one or more notes or warnings about why output was not written to the results window. 

Did any of the code in the section you call

Submit more code with outputs to Results - doesn't update Results

include any ODS <destination> CLOSE; statements? 

 

Rerun the code without the Clear log and if the same behavior occurs then you can share the LOG. Best would be to copy the log starting at the procedure that successfully creates results window output and ending with the first procedure that should send output to results window. On the forum past the text copied from the log into a text box opened on the forum with the </> icon that appears above the message window.

Clean code, clean log, no unbalanced quotes, brackets, etc. Very odd.

 

Other users running exactly same code, with same preferences/settings, cannot replicate my issue either.
