Missing Dependency open-tabs in Thingworx Mashup

Hi all,

 

On version 10.0.0 and this is an issue I am just noticing as of recent (maybe just after updating our dev to 10.0.0). There is this dependency with an entity called 'open-tabs' but I don't see it used anywhere in the mashup and don't even know what the entity is (based on name seems like a default thingworx entity). Any ideas on what this is or how to resolve this dependency?

Thanks for the input. For now, simply creating a new style named 'open-tabs' seems to resolve the dependency, just seemed like a weird behavior so wanted to see if anyone else encountered it

Icon indicates that it is a StyleDefinition.

 

Maybe export the mashup as xml (export to sourcecontrol) and search the xml for the "open-tabs" reference. Maybe it helps to recreate the StyleDefinition - or remove it when you know where it is referenced in the mashup.

Not sure if this was a custom created StyleDefinition or from some other extension.

I found it has something to with this TabStyle property which is new in TWX 10.0.0.

If I switch it to "Framed Tabs", I then have an issue with a style definition called 'contained-tabs' instead. Though I don't see anywhere to switch the actual style definition that is used and open-tabs was not a custom created one. I find that creating a custom style definition named 'open-tabs' resolves the dependency issue, just am not sure if I am missing some sort of new built-in/system dependency named 'open-tabs' instead.

"TabStyle" : "open-tabs"
XML shows me also that it is with the TabStyle, but I can't physically remove it from the mashup in any way it doesn't seem.

Just for awareness in case others show up here, I encountered this issue in ThingWorx v10.1.0, so it's not yet resolved.

Thank you for sharing the tip about creating a style to overcome the dependency!
