Developer wants to set "Pie Chart color starting direction".
In default, we can't set Pie Chart color starting direction. It means pie chart painted from 3 o'clock direction. In general, we are familiar with Pie Chart painted from 0 o'clock. For example, Excel or other BI tool. My idea is we can change this setting depend on user because of avoiding misleading for graph.

Use of Rules in Layouts
The limitation by using rules in layouts should be elimiated since it limits the use of quick layout massively. In our case we calculate a %-KPI which can not be safed in a cube and must be calculated on the fly. Using the quick layout and having the rule set on the cube not only leads to not calclulated KPI´s but also…

Board API Query Output JSON format
Ask is to update the json output format of the REST API queries so as to get column header and data in a single block, as opposed to headers in the columns block and data in a separate data block.

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…

Drill-down feature on a chart
The idea is to enhance interaction with charts, enabling navigation of the entity tree. As a front end user, I would like to be able to expand (and also aggregate) on the default dimension set in the graph. In order to give an idea of the use cases, I am thinking at this kind of competitor's feature: power BI drill down on…

Possibility to define datetime function formatting
ISSUE: Datetime is always restricted to the cultural settings of the user (or in some cases the computer) that uses it. This could cause issues when, for example, an export of a cube that has a timestamp in it (that was created using datetime) is expected to arrive in certain formatting, but a user with a different culture…
