Flat data table for enduser
There should be a possibility for endusers to adjust a data table to a flat data table by theirselves. Due to the quick layout (and the possibility to drag several entities in the rows) it might be useful to adjust a "normal" table to a flat data table in play mode for a better overview.

GeoMap improvements
compared to geo maps in other bi tools (Qlik, Tableau etc.) - the BOARD object is way to clumsy and underperforming. More design options like have a kind of head map per country/region instead of bubbles. Also more available maps (not only google maps and one other) would be great.

Add information note in Data source connection creation
In System Admin portal, a connection should be created to link the Data Pipeline and Board. It turns out that for the alias of the connection, a maximum of 32 digits is allowed. It would be helpful if it would either not let you save the connection if the alias is too long, or at least show an information about this below.…

MS Word Add-In Lacks the Formatting Functionality Present in Board Web
During the development of a report using the Microsoft Word Add-In, it has come to our attention that some of the formatting functionality that is present in Board web is not offered by the add-in. Border thickness cannot be configured in the add-in, but it can be in Board web. Unfortunately, any native MS word formatting…

Write-API for Data-Models to enable Infrastructure as Code
Currently, all elements are manually updated via the UI. However, we would rather like to have a possibility to create entities, kubes, relationships etc. with an API. This would enable us also to provision our data models using infrastructure as code (e.g. Terraform). As e.g. Terraform can also be used to provision…

Delete inaccessible data model command for Board Cloud Administrator
When a data model becomes inaccessible (e.g., due to data corruption), the data model "Delete" command on the GUI is greyed out. This prevents the creation of a new data model with the same name, when there are no usable backups that can be restored. Currently, the only option for Board Cloud users is to create a Support…

Connection alias on Cloud Administration portal
When you create the connection alias on the admin portal, you must have an existing connection configured on the Datapipeline portal. So when you map the alias to the existing connection, one should not need to type the connection name, it would be better to have a drop-down list only showing the available connections so…

"Run as administrator" option for "Advanced broadcast rule"
From my point of you it would make sense if there would also be a "Run as administrator" option for the broadcast function "Advanced broadcast rule" so that the developer can explicitly run the broadcast function without (previously removed) security selections. Right now there is no such option so the broadcast function/…

Activate number scaling when using DataView Search
currently activated number scaling (e.g. Thousands) is getting deactivated when you use the search function in a dataview It would be great if the set (defined) number scaling remains the same and is not changing. It's pretty irritating at the moment.

Change Click-on-Selector behaviour in Development Mode
Currently when designing a screen and clicking on a selector object in order to move, alter or align it, the selection window is opened and has to be closed manually. During development it is more common to configure or move Selector Objects than actually setting up a selection using the Selector. Therefore it would be…

more Comment-formatting/placement options
We are having several management reports (basically P&L structure) which need to get commented by all subsidiaries. This commenting needs to be done in an extra table below the main data view (columns not possible due to a lot of columns and scrolling to the right is not an option). This makes it a bit difficult to find…

Ideas: - Make the list searchable and/or sorted in alphabetical order. - Make it easier to remove/add screens from/to a Mask. Now you have to do it in two steps - first remove and then add. Have…

RGB color in Dynawrite
Finding the customer's color in Dynawrite is difficult since the RGB color scheme is not used. RGB is used basically everywhere else in Board. Idea: Add option or change the color selection in a Dynawrite to RGB. This is how the color selection looks like in most other places in Board.

Export to Word
We are working on a project where information on Board needs to be exported to word to allow creation of documents with embedded information from Board. Currently if we export, we get a screenshot rather than exporting to word with the use of Board word add-in. I can see this being useful for lots of customers as financial…

Customize toolbars for dynawrite objects

Board Theme: Header Picture Scaling
Hi all! This is a rather minor wish: When scaling windows or changing screen resolutions, the Board Theme "Header background picture" should also do so accordingly. Alternatively (or in a first step), the option to align the "Header background picture" left or center, in addition to the implicit default (right), would be…

Hyperlinks disappear when export from Board to other platform or to word file.
When you put hyperlinks in the rtf file in Dynawrite in Board, they work very well. But when export them to other integration tool or export as a word document they disappear. I have also attached the image on left side text from Board and right side text from export. But in export links were disappered.
