[IDV #SDH-348381]: Range Rings and ISL Scripts

Greetings Stefan,

I cannot seem to get the range rings to show up in your isl output file either. 
However, if I start with a fresh bundle and just add range rings, I can get 
them to show up by running an isl script in the same way you have your isl 
script setup. It almost seems like something is not quite right in your xidv 
file, but I am not sure what. Have you tried to remake your bundle from 
scratch? You may try to add the ring first along with the map. Save the bundle 
and run with an isl script to see if everything works. Then, load your dataset 
and add one field. Re-run the isl file and see if the range ring goes away. If 
not, keep adding the fields and re-running the isl script until your have 
rebuilt your xidv file. If everything works, then yay! If not, let me know when 
the rings disappear. That will give me an idea where to look, because right now 
there are no errors being thrown so it would be really hard to track down as it 
is.

Cheers,

Sean
