Does not brings the tables/files list on pressing Ctrl+Spacebar after SchemaName(dot) in SQL Scrapbook/Script for the schema

Using RBD and RDPi (ver 8.0)

After connecting to a iSeries DB2 database from the Data Perspective then set the Schemas Filter. If the schema (Library) does not fulfil the selection criteria (expanding the filtered Schemas does not show the Schema/Library) now after opening a SQL Script / Scrapbook after typing the schema name and then . (DOT) will not automatically display the list of files under the schema/library. Also pressing the Ctrl + Spacebar (Key Assistance) doe not brings the file names.

Not sure whether this is a valid rule or not, but it might be happen when I need to make some query on a file that not belongs to my schema filter, but must bring the file list on key assistance.

Also the shot key F5 does not work for SQL Scrap Book whereas it works in SQL Script. Expect to have the same F5 shot key to work in SQL Scrapbook as well.

Please find the attached document for further references.

Thanks & Regards
Dibs


Use Case:

Go to Data perspective.
Connect to an iSeries DB2 Database.
Expand the Database and then Right Click on Schemas.
Select Filter.
Uncheck the Disabled Filter.
Click on the Add Button and put some existing Schema/Library names in the Value.
Select the Meet any Condition combo box.
Click the Apply button and then OK.
Now Right Click on the connection and select Open SQL Scrapbook.
In the Scrapbook type SELECT * FROM schemaname.(DOT) and then press Ctrl+Spacebar.
Does not bring the tables/files list that are exists in the schema/library

    Thank you for submitting the RFE. We have determined that the RFEs should be assigned to the IBM Data Studio team. Unfortunately IBM Data Studio is not on the RFE Community although we recommend you contact tech support for IBM Data Studio to submit the RFE.
