Display missing Chart Hover over values
In Desktop Board when you hover over a Chart (Doughnut) with a layout containing a Count Cube and Vertical % Ranking, the Count and % are displayed. However, in Web, the value of the Count is not displayed. Web version of Board should, where-ever possible, provide the same chart functionality as Desktop version, otherwise…

Use Block Format in Web
Symbol Before and Symbol After block format settings should be displayed when hovering over elements in maps, treemaps, bar charts, pie charts and doughnuts. Even in latest version, 10.3.0.50803, they do not. Instead, as a workaround, it is necessary to add a manual Block Heading, repeating the Block name but with the…

Export to Excel - improved file-naming
It would be useful to enhance the functionality of exports to excel (and pdf) to enable more meaningful filenames to be created. My suggestion is that there should (in Web) be 2 new properties associated with each object, for which export to excel (and pdf) would use as part of exported filenames. This would improve the…

Select multiple members by text string
Hi All, currently, if you want to select a greater number of entity members on a screen (for example a list of 50 specific articles), you have to click on a selector, search for one, select it, search for the next one, select… and so on. In a few projects now, users have asked if they could enter the desired members as a…

reverse dynamic selection
I noticed that while in the select of an entity you can choose whether to make a selection or an exclusion, using the dynamic selection on a cube, you can not exclude what is in that cube directly from the select. It would seem more convenient to have this option in the select, aware that the problem can be easily solved…

Dynamic Axis Scale for Waterfall
When setting up a Waterfall it can happens that the middle bars are so small (compared to the starting and ending bars) that it is impossible to see them. Hopefully in the web the marker is plotted outside the bar, so it's visible, but the request is to have all the bar enough large to be visible. It would be nice to have…

Drill down - allow developers to choose opening size of popups
When the drill-down is selected, and the popup window appears (rather than going to a screen), the user is often presented with the need to use the horizontal scroll bar to display the full width of the data displayed, or to click on maximise button ( [] ) in top-right of popup window. We, as developers, strive to minimise…

treemap chart > modify the colour behaviour of tiles when alerts are used
1. What is your idea? currently, colouring treemap tiles (when a block alert is set) uses a shading function around the threshold value, e.g. for threshold alert = 4 and colour red, the tiles for values 3 and 5 will get a lighter red, whereas 4 has a full red colour. I have use cases where this behaviour is not the…

Enhance the DataView Layout SORT function

For example, where a client's data has 3 levels - eg Site, Floor, and Work Area and you wish the report to sort by Site, then Floor then Work Area descriptions, and the date the Work Area was…

A "used by" feature on cube - Impact analysis
In Board, we create lots and lots of cube, some for input, some for technical purpose, some for back office operation. And from time to time, we forget even what purpose it was meant for or if it is still useful! Sometime, we need to change the structure of a cube, add a version, etc.. For all these reasons an impact…

Acclaim Badges for e-Learning Certifications

Acclaim is one of a few sites offering badges for recognition for accomplishments. Companies like Microsoft, Oracle and IBM…

Link with "button" functions on label or dynawrite text portion
It would be nice to have the possibility to set a text contained in a label or dynawrite and activate, for a defined screen, the same options allowed e,g, for a button. IN other words, "integrate" the button in a dynawrite. Example: in a screen I have a label containing this string "To update figures click on button…

Federica Antonelli, Leone Scaburri, Fabio Donatellis In general it would be helpful to get more and above all faster information about changes and upcoming features / releases.

Add sum of remaining values in addition to total
When filtering the layout by let's say the top customers, I'd like to know how much am I missing. Right now using "Keep Totals" I can infer the rest of the values. But that is a tedious task, best done in excel. I'd like to have an option "add remaining sum" that would create a new row above the totals' row. The content…

Writing a comment via pop up in a procedure
I just wanted to share this idea with the community. Feedback welcome!! We currently can write text and/or comments in a cube, however we cannot really integrate this process as part of a procedure.

BOARD INTERNAL CONNECTOR
Hi community. My environment is based on sevaral databases, mainly set by function, and there're various procedures to move data from one db to another. Such processes are managed using cubes/trees export and reload. But in my opinion it would more comfortable have a kind of "internal connector" that allows a direct…
