Refresh of multiple screen/tabs
In 2 projects that we have developed in Desigual, 2 different group of users have asked us the same wish: To be able to refresh all the open tabs (since they use Board Web) at the same time, either when you perform a Data Entry or when you click a "Refresh" button. They usually work with 2-3 tabs open, using 1 of them for…
Optimization of selection functionalities
Hello community, here are a few points/functionalities that could improve selection functionalities in board: * Allow flexible ranges in screen selection At the moment there is no way for a "native" range selection of a screen.

XLSX-export --> selection export with one dimension

Web brower usage statistics
It would be very useful if Board could track which web browsers are end-users using to access the application and display those statistics (e.g. 45% of the users are accessing via Chrome, 15% of the users are accessing via Edge, etc). Out of the box report, or even logs with this information would be great!
Add SubGroups to Menu type Flat Horizontal and Flat Vertical
Currently, in both Desktop and WEB, the menu object, when using Flat Horizontal or Flat Vertical, does NOT display the SubGroups, if any, that are included in a Capsule's site map. Other menu types do. It would therefore be helpful to include SubGroups in both these types of menu.

Cubes tab to show Cube Entities and Sparse Structure
In bigger projects where you have a large number of cubes, it is often required to review cubes structure. i.e. Cube Entities or Sparsity.
