Synchronous Dialog Chain broken

[Mike Pokraka]

Hi Sherie, 
If you are executing a series of tasks in the same wingui session inside your browser then advance with dialog will work. Fortunately (!) you were on 4.6c so it ran on an ITS box and presumably all steps executed this way. 

The 'New' stuff contains a lot of iviews. The result is that you have e.g. a decision task iview (java) followed by a transaction (wingui). Advance with dialog would not work in this case as switching from one technology to another lost the user context. I am not sure if the latest EP6 support pack only addressed this particularly for decisions or for a more general case, but it was a real pain for decision processing. 

Cheers, 
Mike
