Please watch the video at this URL https://youtu.be/4m9YNPrpsvk
2. Support for the Rating widget
The rating widget that allows users to rate something and shows rating as stars, can be used in forms as well as
the standard and custom queries
3. Palette of available attributes
Aware IM now displays a palette of attributes that can be dragged and dropped on a form in the Form Designer.
The palette is also displayed in queries represented as a standard grid and allows dragging and dropping
attributes on the grid creating new columns to show.

The default login form is now different. It is possible to customise the default login form and add an image
to it and/or the "Sign Up" text and the link to the Forgotten Password process.
5. Query results can now be shown as trees

Awesome, kudos.

Vladimir, you continue to amaze me at how you target important improvements to keep adding to Aware IM's speed and functionality, then deliver them ON TIME.

So refreshing when so many software tools these days do not make their roadmaps visible to users and only deliver small bits of value with new releases.

Keep up the great work!
