538617Image acquisition timeout received when multiple states in the inspection contain acquisition steps with different window sizes or positions.
541229The Run LabVIEW VI step does not allow you to use relative paths when the only common portion of the path is the root of the drive.
542652Inspections do not give a save prompt when migrated between 32-bit and 64-bit instances of Vision Builder AI.

549194After generating LabVIEW VIs with Vision RIO steps, the hardware state is not properly reflected in the Vision RIO test panel.
552394The transition dialog for a state does not allow you to select a specific numeric value greater than 0 if the dialog was using a previous measurement result as the comparison value.
552682System images created for Linux RT-based Compact Vision Systems cannot be redeployed to those targets.
552910The Run LabVIEW VI step does not fail after you rename indicators which are used to set inspection variables.
553921In the Calculator step, controls placed inside a structure do not correctly pass on their values.
563565The context help window can get stuck in a state where it fails to close when expected or to update its content.

565038,
565142
Extracting part of a calibrated image can return negative areas for particles.
565352A VI resetting dialog is sometimes shown when closing Vision Builder AI.
