Test Complete 9 no longer allows Regions with a / in the name

In Test Complete 8 you could create a Region with a / in the name.  In Test Complete 9, you now get an error saying the name is invalid.  Scripts that are brought forward from Test Complete 8 to 9 still work but you can not create new regions with a / in the name.  Any chance this will get fixed soon?  Anyone else experiencing this issue?

    Hi Steven,



    As far as I know, the region names must be valid script identifiers as the region name defines the name of the property that is used to work with that region from script:


    Regions.MyImageName.Check(...)


    So, the fact that TestComplete allowed using slashes in region names was a bug, and it has been fixed.
