Cognos PowerPlay/Impromptu and Windows XP

[monsky]

Has anyone noticed that PowerPlay or Impromptu have quirks in the user interfaces?

One example in PowerPlay (Reporter Mode) is when I delete a category or level the screen is not refreshed unless I click on another area.

In version 6.0 of Impromptu in Join dialog box when I try to join two tables on their keys Add Link button does not get enabled. In the Table dialog box when I try to change weights the buttons for adjusting the weights are disabled.

And unless you changed XP's current interface to the classic interface the minimize/restore buttons sometime become double and only one is clickable.

There are more of these quirks but I just cited some.

I know that Cognos stated that Impromptu 6.x would not support XP, so I'm not that surprised.

I've tried 7.0 and even MR3 of Series 7. Although most of these quirks has been ironed out there are still some that do appear.
