New RiverWare Script Actions

Seven new MRM configuration-related script action types have been developed for RiverWare 6.7. There are now 36 different script action types. The new actions all modify a named MRM configuration within the current RiverWare model. The modified MRM properties are all represented on particular tabs within the MRM Configuration dialog, as indicated in this table:

Execution of these script actions modify the cited MRM configuration.  If an MRM configuration dialog is open for an affected MRM, the effect of the script on the MRM configuration is immediately reflected in that dialog.  If the user had made any changes in an open MRM configuration dialog which had not yet been applied, those changes are automatically applied before the script action is executed.
