In one of the applications we had an issue where a specific tab was displayed twice in the MORE menu, eventhough the names of the tabs in the separate components were the same:
After analysis of the seperate components, it showed that, although the English names were equal, the internal names were different
The matching for merging the tabs is done on the internal name and not the name according the input language (usually English). For forms, at this moment, the Name is used.
Normally when the name is changed, the internal name follows. This is the case for changes done thru almost any possible regular way (a.o. double click, properties, name in ribbon, translate in ribbon). There are, for now, two possibilities identified where changing the name doesn’t also set the internal name:
- When changing the name in the advanced tab
- When uploading the translation file for EN translation
- Change the languages
- Make an export to Excel
- After changing and correcting names, import the file
In this case the internal name is also not changed
So, to summerize, when changing a element name, like (a.o.) a tab or a form, in a non- or less regular way (thru advanced or Excel import), check if the internal name is also changed to prevent merging issues.
