Changed

Alpha tag removed for import/export (Zendesk#15681)

Import/ Export

Alpha tag for import/export for data connections, schedules and reports has now been removed and replaced with a help icon and some help text, providing information on how to import/export between different dashboard versions.

Added pagination for Report Filter and Category Filter Default Value Selection (Zendesk#20260)

Report Filters, Category Filters

When creating / editing Category Filters, for certain Category Filter types, the system offers a pop up for selecting the default value(s). The values on the pop up panel now has pagination, which improves performance when there are lots of values to be displayed.

The same implementation is done for selecting Report Filter Default Values.


Fixed

Sorts and Targets not being removed when changing to a chart type that doesn’t support them (Zendesk#8586)

Chart Editor

Fixed an issue where changing from a chart with sorts and/or targets to one that doesn’t support them could result in errors due to the sorts and/or targets not being immediately removed.

Blank Pages in PDF (Zendesk#17619)

Reports/ Renderer

Previously, the renderer was adding extra blank pages when a report with a table was exported in PDF. This issue only used to happen in certain scenarios usually where the table content was higher than the size of the page. An extra space of 40px has now been reserved in the report page to make sure no blank pages are created.

Licence details disappearing if you navigated away from the ‘Licence’ tab (Zendesk#19413)

Configuration Tool

The details of an XML licence that are displayed in the ‘Licence’ tab of the configuration-tool would disappear if they had yet to be applied - via the ‘Apply and Run’ option - and you navigated to a different tab. These details now persist between tab changes.

Light Bulb charts not showing data value when small (Zendesk#21349,21479)

Charts/ Reports

Previously, Light Bulb charts would hide their data value when this was smaller than a certain size even if it would have been perfectly legible.

Now, both Light Bulb and Traffic Light charts will display this value, on both the dashboard and in reports containing them, no matter how small they become.

Cached ALM licence takes priority over invalid new licence (Zendesk#21939)

Licencing

Previously, if you changed your UUID license to an invalid one the encrypted licence stored in the database would be used. This hid the fact that the new licence was invalid until the encrypted one expired.

Now, if the UUID licence is invalid you won’t be able to log in and the encrypted licence will be removed from the database.

ALM request incorrectly states database type as ‘HyperSQL’ (Zendesk#21940)

Licencing

Regardless of the type of database being run, the audit data sent to the ALM when using a UUID licence would state that it was a ‘HyperSQL’ database. Now, the database type is identified and reported correctly.

User created repository backups have “..” in their filenames(configuration-tool#116)

Configuration Tool

Repository backups created through the ‘Create Backup’ button under the ‘Repository’ tab of the configuration-tool mistakenly had two adjacent dots as part of their filename. They now have a single dot as intended.
