Breaking changes
This section lists important changes introduced in this release. You will need to use this list in order to understand the changes you might need to make to your application to support the new release.
#23348 Fixed bug in item spacing for repeating container (Web)
Prior to 10.6, a bug caused Item Spacing for the Repeating Container-control to resolve "Auto" to 0 pixels, in contrast to the standard behaviour that resolves "Auto" to 8 pixels. This has been corrected in 10.6, causing all Repeating Containers with Item Spacing "Auto" to have spacing larger than maybe first intended. When upgrading to version 10.6, check all Pages where Repeating Container is in use and change the setting "Item Spacing" from "Auto" to "None" to retain an item spacing of 0 pixels.

Resolved issues
#23344 Genus frequently shuts down with an error when I am browsing through OC properties in Studio (Studio)
Occurs when an object class property is opened in Studio and the next/previous buttons are used to open an adjacent property.
#23346 Fixed handling of database connectivity issues (Services)
If the connection to a database dropped (e.g. due to nightly backups) Genus services would often fail to recover when the database came back online. During initialization (e.g. following a scheduled nightly process recycle) the Genus mega-service will now avoid caching data until successfully read from the database.

Improved information and added option to reset custom format from the format dialog.

#23358 Browse path generates incorrect table alias in SQL request
