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…
Insert New Member Trigger in ATO
It is sometimes needed that when you create a new element (a version for versioning for example) in an ATO a procedure is started, however triggers can only take place when we change the element inside and not when we create a new one. In the example from versioning maybe we want to create a new element with an ATO and…
Disable "edit layout" by report
Hi, i would like the "edit layout" option to be active only in specific reports. In fact often the option in security level is too restrictive, because we need to freeze specific reports for complexity reasons but mostly for SECURITY reasons (many times we are obligated to set a specific FILTER for security reason and we…
Broadcast function to send SMS
Currently BOARD can send alerts to email via the broadcast capability, could this be extended to allow the sending of alerts via SMS? I haven't fully researched but a quick google suggests that there are a number of subscription services for redistributing an email to an SMS that may work. Does the community think this…
Make "Full Screen", Full Screen
I am looking into the idea of using transition containers to replicate PowerPoint presentations, but live in BOARD, allowing the presenter to drill through on screen and and further analyse information live during a presentation. One of the comments that has come up as an objection to this concept is the "eye distraction"…

Background colour of web environment

BOARD Community Navigation frustrations
I am finding it increasingly frustrating when reading through forums. I am used to using forums, scrolling down, selecting an article to read and then returning to the point in the 'stack' that I left by using a browser 'back' button. However, on the BOARD forum, I will scroll through a forum and select an article to read.…
Add Options to sort entities in descending fashion
Currently, you can't decide to sort entity by * "None" = insert order * "Code" * "Desc" However, it would be more than nice to have the possibility to choose the sort type between descending and ascending. It is especially usefully when creating version,scenario, sandbox, where often the latest ones, are the go to. For…
Home Screen - Screen Triggers disabled
Idea: Enable the Screen Triggers function to operate in Home Screen. Reason: The screen triggers function - allowing procedures/actions to be completed when opening or closing a screen - is used extensively on other screens, and would be useful to allow this function to work on Home screen also. Is there a reason why it…

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
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…
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…

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…
Better relationships management

@Authorizations in labels (@Selection improvement)
Hi everybody, Very often in order to explain a result to a user, we have to take into account the authorizations he has, which can be quite complex in our cases. Issue: In order to make the screen selections explicit, we can currently use @Selection in a label at the bottom of the report, for example, to make sure the user…

Display Screen List correctly
In latest version, 10.3.0.50803, the Screen List, when displayed, is partially masked by a menu object of the current screen. It is not therefore possible to use the Search function as previously. This was not a problem in earlier version. Please correct.

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…
Make Board (Support) Chat function great again...
Hi all, I noticed the last months that the Board support chat function, which I love, is offline / not responsive almost every time I try to reach it. Even-though it says it is online, I do not get any response. I try to use it during regular business hours.. So it should be online most of the time actually. I understand…

You first have to load the logfile to Excel an to filter the data. This is very uncomfortable for our Clients and a lot of them have…
