Issue/Introduction

Custom attributes can be created during a Load File Import (LFI). Strange behavior is seen when the "Related Items" panel is de-docked and re-docked when viewing an attachment that includes custom attributes.

When an email attachment is being reviewed, the docked "Related Items" panel correctly shows the focus set to the "Attachment" panel and the custom attributes of the attachment are also correctly shown (Figure 1).

However, when the "Related Items" panel is de-docked (by clicking

Note that the "Attachments" tab is disabled. This becomes enabled if the "Custom Attributes" button is clicked, however no contents are then listed (Figure 3).

This could be considered only a cosmetic issue. However, when the "Related Items" panel is re-docked (by closing the window), the focus remains set to the "Message" tab, and the details of the parent document are now shown (Figure 4).
