  3. Viewing and editing of documents in Zoho (also supported in DISPLAY DOCUMENT)

Improvements

  3. Ability to display forms and queries in a background process (and specify target)
  4. Ability to use custom function libraries in labels etc (on the client)
  5. Ability to specify a process as implementation of form and query refresh
  6. UDP attached to changes of object data work better
  7. Support for import/export of UDP email templates
  8. APPEND option for the EXPORT action
  9. Focus automatically moved to the first editable field on addNew in inline editing
  10. Backspace button is disabled so that Browser Back is not performed
  11. Import/Export menu command only supports objects specified in the command's properties
  12. Ability to implement Edit operation as a process, which is executed during Next/Prev operations on a form
  13. Empty cells in forms now have the same height as text fields, so that columns line up better
  14. Initialisation script for individual attributes and HTML/Gauge cells
  15. Documents displayed in a popup window
  16. TAKE BEST expression in queries (FIND, DISPLAY, PICK FROM) allows specifying attribute value
  17. LIMIT expression in queries
  18. Ability to direct output to “SAME PANEL” for operations
  19. Ability to specify groups for auto-incremented attributes (values of group and start range attributes must be available before rules are executed, so they need to be either provided from the UI or initialised in CREATE. One tactics is to use another object for this and CREATE when necessary with the appropriate group values)
  20. Ability for text areas to grow automatically
