ACDC with over 3 months since the last build, I figure V9 is ALMOST here! Good question , any ideas of the new features/ enhancements Also the forum seems very quiet, whats going on 😮
aware_support We hope to release version 8.8 in late January/early February. The list of features so far: New Features: Rating widget support. Attributes of number types have a new widget type Rating. This allows adding rating in forms. Rating widget can be displayed in standard queries (column properties have a new property "Display rating" widget Rating widget can be used in custom queries like this: {AttributeName,rating} In queries If presentation of the attribute is defined, rating widget properties are taken from there, otherwise default Palette of available attributes and other form elements that can be dragged and dropped onto a form in the Form Designer Palette of available attributes that can be dragged and dropped onto a query in the Query Preview Ability to delete selected columns and operations by pressing the Del key in the Query Preview New versions of the default login pages (logon.jsp?domain=Domain&testingMode=true and logonAdmin.jsp) Ability to specify image, title and the "signup text" for the default login page Title is also displayed in the <title> tag If a process that handles forgotten password is defined, the link to run this process from the login page is automatically shown Integration with Stripe Multiparty Payments Onboarding Payments Generation of email links for payments Ability to represent query results as trees Ability to run the Configuration Tool across the Internet (debugging not supported) - just need to add the following property to UIConfig.props: HttpServerConnection=true Then WebServer, WebServerPort, WebServerProtocol, WebAppBase properties need to point to the remote server Zoho - updated to the latest API Improvements: Ability to specify default label alignment for new forms Ability to specify font size and theme when creating a new VP Ability to specify theme and font size when creating a business space User interface (new checkbox) in the Logger Settings dialog to save server and Tomcat consoles in log files Ability to specify default date and time formats for a business space version. The formats can be changed using properties of a BSV (including the ability to change format of all existing date/timestamp attributes) And default formats can also be specified when creating a new business space Ability to specify default page margins for a business space version. These margins were hardcoded when a page with dynamic content was displayed Properties of filters can now be added to grid styles Ability to specify "bottom of the form" as location for any panel operation (not only Save and Close operations) Ability to swap columns in the Form Designer (drag and drop a selected column) Ability to specify operations for the multi-selector widget Ability to specify panel operations for content panels in visual perspectives Ability to save a list of attributes of an object into a text file (Attributes Pane in the Config. Tool) Some improvements/bug fixes in the look and feel of the Report Designer Bugs: Chart queries with aggregates didn't work for objects with external persistence Kanban could not be used in forms If several grouped queries were displayed on the same screen "collapsed initially" flag didn't work properly Using "modern" headers for content panels in a VP caused layout designer not to display panel content Value of the "status code" attribute was not saved in the Config Tool when defining a REST service Incoming emails with HTML attachments didn't work properly Sometimes column headers were displayed as raw HTML when exporting queries in Excel Delete on choices dialog didn't work properly Moving panel operation up and down on a form didn't move it in the toolbar
BLOMASKY My favorite might be: - Ability to specify "bottom of the form" as location for any panel operation (not only Save and Close operations) Bruce
ask180 Being able to present the output of a query as a tree will be very useful for displaying hierarchical data. Looking forward to trying it out.
