B14: Adjust the DataView Layout Editor - Configure a drill on last block option missing
Hi @Product Management Team, I think it would be great if the possibility to configure a drill action on a block in a dataview was available on every block. The last block in a layout can't be configured due to the "preview" button which obscures this feature: Best, Helmut

Split&Splat functionality extension to even/repeated distribution
Hi, I wish to have the split&splat functionality broadened, so it is not only able to split values according to the existing proportions, but have the ability to repeat the value, or to spread it evenly onto all leaf elements that are open for data entry.

Show certain layout blocks as single column, even with entities by column
Sometimes you'd want a certain block displayed as a single column an others displayed per element in the entities by column. This could for example be a budget for the year and than the actuals by month. The way we have always achieved this is kind of an awkward work-around. For the block that should be a single column we…

Enable Data Entry on Flex Grid

Data Entry performed - make the information about pending changes available to developers
The trigger action on a DataView can call a procedure to process any changed values—but, this will allways process the information row by row, meaning that the trigger action will be performed for each row in the DataView that has been altered, and this can be pretty time-consuming. You can, of course, use a label or…

Allow for filtering in dataviews to work alongside aggregated functions such as 'distinct count'
Hi! Currently I believe that all filters in a data view are disregarded when a cube in the data view has the aggregation function - 'distinct count' enabled. We have found a work around (as we were using this to find averages), however this functionality would still be very useful in the future and in other use cases.…
