Sum of layout
Hi All, That will be great to have an easy way to make a sum (or other functions) of several layouts. Unless if I'm wrong but today if we just want to have the sum of two layouts, we have to build a third layout with hidden blocks in order to have the final result. Thoughts, ideas ? Thanks

Error messages in layouts more explicit than "Oops"
Hi all, Context & issue: A few months ago, we implemented a limit on reports known as "Rows Upper Limit" to prevent users from overloading the system with too big queries (usually, addind all axis of a cube to extract everything to excel...). Due to this limit, sometimes the users have a "Oops" error in their layout, but…

BULLET CHART - ISSUES
Please could I ask for support to have the Bullet Chart issues, outlined below, addressed so as to make the Bullet Chart usable in all the scenarios for which it was built? Image 1 shows how bullet charts in BOARD 11.x can be used. Image 1: Four stacked bullet charts. All are of uniform length and each is independent of…

Comment on cubes
Hi all, I'd like to have the possibility to insert a comment on each cube (and maybe entities), mainly in order to clarify their use in the database and their content. It would be enough to reproduce the possibility already available for the step of a procedure. This becomes crucial when dealing with large database, where…

Alert for wrong syntax for algorithms
When using algorithms in block (either for Data Flow or Data View), and you need to use a "complex" formula, it would be nice to have an alert that notify you if the syntax is wrong. An example can be, when you use a long statement with multifle IF's (and a lot of parenthesis), if you forget just one parenthesis your…

BOARD 11 Randomizer Tool
WHAT WAS THE RANDOMIZER TOOL. To those that knew of it, and before BOARD 11, the Randomizer Tool was hugely powerful, allowing test models of production offerings to be created in as little as five minutes (once you knew the fields and cubes to obfuscate). Simply put, it turns real data into random data. Image 1 shows the…

CHAT & SHARE User Groups
Please could I ask the community to consider this idea and vote accordingly? I would like to suggest that BOARD implement the ability to create CHAT and SHARE user groups and for the developer to have the ability to restrict what users, or groups, each user can see. This proposal would, in practice, see the ability for the…

When ‘create report’ to PowerPoint, would like ability to adjust or remove margins.
We have some presentations with a lot of data on each screen. Users are attempting to export them to PowerPoint to print them, but the numbers are printing very small. Removing margins would make the reports much more readable.

Ability to display informational messages when user logs in
We currently display informational messages on the home page of each capsule and it has worked well. (the messages usually are to inform users of any issues with the dataload, etc). But, now we are using presentations more, which means that our users don't always open a capsule, so they never get to the home page to see…

B11 - Massive Change Cubes Dimensions
It would be very nice to be able to select more than one cube and to change the dimensions for all the selected cubes. Just in the same way that's done for the Data Type.

Text Based Layout  Editor
In v11 the web interface can be a little cumbersome when editing / creating large layout (10 Blocks +). There is no way to edit an existing block through the GUI and copying blocks is not possible. The idea would be to provide a way for exporting a layout to text, allowing edit, re-importing and parsing the layout.…

'Exit Screen' Procedure step to close tabs in web client
I am proposing a web client behaviour for the existing 'Exit Screen' procedure step. Currently this procedure step has no action in the Web Client, however within the Windows Client, upon execution of this step, the current open screen is closed fully, rather than navigated away from. It would be ideal if this step had the…

(SOLVED) Copy Values from BOARD Web pages.
Please could I request that the ubiquitous behaviour of copying web-viewed values and text be extended to BOARD? As a developer, I received these requests from external users as they believe it is me that is preventing them from being able to carry out this function. I do think it odd that this action is not permitted but…

ADHOC Report Builder
The Idea. I would like to ask for the community to vote for the idea of an adhoc report builder for the daily user.

And here are some others: Adam Elvin 05 Nov 2017 Conditional Display of Columns -…

Save Changes! - editing web capsules (.bcps)
When editing your .bcps capsules in the browser, you save any changes by selecting the tick at the top of the screen: If you forget to save your changes you see this message if you choose to leave edit mode: You then select 'Cancel' and save your work as mentioned above. My idea is to improve the pop-up so you get an…

y Axis minimum 0, maximum Autorange
In a Cartesian graph (such as bar or line graph), I would like to be able to set the minimum of the y Axis to be 0, and the maximum to be Autorange (so that the highest the Y axis goes will be slightly higher than the highest spot on a bar or line graph). Currently this isn't an option. If I select Autorange, the minimum…

Treemap Alerts for negative numbers
Hi All, I was pointed to non-intuitive behavior of the treemaps functionality by a Board user. In this case the CFO of the company who had a good point in his analysis. See below the issue. For treemaps, alerts can be assigned to values. So if we take green for positive and red for negative, one would (intuitively) expect…

VERTICAL DATA VIEW as new distinct object
I would suggest to develop a new object, the VERTICAL DATA VIEW A lot of reporting / dashboard uses this approach. Now I have these options: - Set a data view and layout as Vertical Alignment; but this configuration has a lot of limitations (e.g. excel export) making it usable in a very few cases. - Use a balance approach…

Possibility to stop procedure without stopping service
I think all BOARD users would greatly appreciate a way to stop procedures without having to stop the service. Of course stopping the procedure immediately, not after the next step. We all know the situation where a procedure takes a long time, especially a data flow. In multi-database Environments (not only there), it…

Data entry by copy&paste in html Client
Within desktop client it´s possible to enter data by "copy & paste" i.e. from excel. In html client this is currently only working for maximum 50 rows and 100 lines. I think copy & paste is used by many users so elimination of this restriction would be helpful. Additional information from BOARD support: restriction is…
