Mandatory dimensions / consistency checks in quick layout
Context - When designing data entry screens, we are often in the situation where we want to give a maximum flexibility to the end user to choose the most relevant axis. Quick layout is great for that. Issue - However we often have the situation where at least one dimension is mandatory, otherwise figures don't make sense.…

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.

My Idea : Add the feature to "Ignore master object" for object like dataview / graph etc… My Context : Currently when designing a screen for an object to ignore a master layout you have to set a selection directly into the layout of the screen.

Order of filtering in Layout Selection window overrides Custom Sort order ranking on Entities
Hi, I noticed that my custom sort for this entity was not being followed on the data view the way I ranked it in the data model (image 1). It took me a while to realise, but I wanted to make it aware that the order of ranking in the layout selection window overrides the Custom Sort. This is misleading. I believe the Custom…

Hardcode 'down total' formula to prevent it from referring to another block.
Hi, I've been having an issue where my 'Sales Mix (%)' calculation refers to a moving block from the layout, instead of maintaining the 'down total' function. To calculate 'Sales Mix (%)', I am using the algorithm: (Sales/Down Total (Sales))*100 or c/dt(c)% in the below example. The issue I am having is that the data view…

Is it possible to add a "+" symbol in front of positive values?
Using the image above as an example, is it possible to add a "+" value in front of the 89.0% without writing it as an text algorithm in the data view? (as this is requested in multiple views) I understand it's possible to add a prefix in block formatting however that wouldn't recognise a value as <>0 so it would place a"+"…

Feature to add a "+" symbol in front of positive values only.
Currently this can only be achieved by using text algorithms, which can be very time consuming and difficult to manage across multiple screens/objects. Using the image below as an example, can we add a feature to add a "+" value in front of the 89.0% without writing it as an text algorithm in the data view? I understand…

Hello, Is there a way to add all entities, used in the related cubes, to the Quick Layout? So far I have only managed to add one entity at the time.

Due to this limit, sometimes the users have a "Oops" error in their layout, but…
