Overview ApiQuery calls (# of requests) in Cloud Administration Portal
Hi all, it would be wonderful to have an overview in the cloud admin portal how many API requests you actually use per day. Since there is a limit of 500 requests per day, this would help the customer understand if they need to think about increasing the limit soon. Thanks a lot!

Extract/Import Trees Unsorted
Hello, I'm sure any admin of BOARD has faced the issue needing to refresh Development Cubes/Entities with new info from Production. I'm sad to say that this process is FAR less straightforward than it would seem. It is very frustrating to always have to follow the steps of : A) Remove all sorting of entities (Production)…

Maintain cursor in the selected dataview cell after screen refresh
In large dataviews with many columns, when a user has a cell selected (in one of the columns to the right after scrolling the dataview), we would like them to be able to run a procedure from a button, and that after a screen is refreshed, the dataview would not jump back to the first column, but would show the dataview as…

allow 2 descriptions/ names by entity name
Actually its only possible to create 1 description of an entity. And the same name will be displayed for the user for example in the selector (there are a few other examples like this) In this case we have to use a workaround and "hide" the name of the selector with a label Most of the entities an especially hierarchies…

"Expand Above" in Data View
Hello, Version: B12.6 In data views with more than one entity per row, headers are automatically added for each entity used. Like so: However, if we want to have the summation going [b]down[/b], a subtotal at the bottom is required. This means that we end up with an empty header row, which just takes up space. My…

Deny sharing option
On a reality with hundreds of users who appreciate and use the presentations abundantly, we want to have control over what they can share and what not. To achieve this, an on-screen option with a "deny sharing" flag might be useful. Once the flag has been activated, that screen can no longer be shared in any way (by…

Chart Improvements - Tooltip by text block
A great feature would be if you could also use the function "Tooltip by: Block X" in the block configuration in the chart. If you mouse over a column/bar in the chart, a tooltip with all blocks (and their values) is already displayed. In addition, you could now display text blocks in this box as a tooltip, too. In…

Label Spacing in Charts
It would be so nice to add the "Label Spacing" setting to the charts where you can set the the label spacing so they don't overlap without having to mess with the sizing of the chart. This will make the numbers so much easier to read and the charts will look great! Thank you!

Limit "Apply data selection" to relevant entities
If you navigate to another screen, by for example using a label with the action type “Go to screen”, you can either apply the entire selection to the new screen or no selection at all: It would be helpful to be able to limit the selection to those entities that are relevant to the selection on the other screen.

Extract all Cubes – Filter Cubes by Entity
Description In Board it is possible to extract all cubes with procedure step “Extract all cubes”. It would be great to have an option to filter the cubes by entity or list of entities.

To apply open screen triggers using Broadcasting (B12.4)
For our monthly reporting we have a few screens with open screens triggers, because this is the only way of getting a good selection on screen. We face the issue that open screen triggers are not applied when using presentations/broadcasting. The only way to make it work is to run the presentation first, so all the pages…

First column size 0 should show border of data view
If you set the first column in a data view to width of 0 the border of the second column should be shown normally. Alternatively a column width of 1 should show the border of second column. Currently you either have no border (width = 0) or a randomly thick border (width = 1)

Sorting across multiple entities
As of now, Board supports sorting on a single entity and the moment we introduce multiple entities into the axis, the sorting only works within the lowest entity group. It would be great if a new feature can be introduced for sorting across multiple entities within a dataview. (Even if it works only in flatten mode).
