    As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each enhancement suggestion. The offering team has carefully reviewed this idea and has decided that it does not fit into our current plans, too aged so plans may have changed or has been implemented, so the idea will be closed. The idea will be kept in IBM's ideas repository and may still be voted on. It might be reassessed or reopened for additional feedback in the future. We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us the privilege of partnering with you in developing our products.

    Currently you are unable to use Assign Hidden variables from Projects created in V7, once upgraded to 8.x.
    The changes to how you now need to use the Assign Hidden variables in v8 (see URI below), mean that now Assign Hidden variables must be passed on to scripts and executables as a command line argument.
    This will render scripts or executables which use the Assign Hidden variable internally will need to be rewritten.

    Also the workaround of exporting the assign hidden vairable will force the rewriting of all steps in which scripts or executables call the Assign Hidden variable.
