Flexibility arranging and resizing insights in dashboards

New Tooltip tray

Incorta added a new tray, Tooltip, in the Analyzer for several visualizations. You can add different types of pills to this tray; such as number, string and date; and eventually, it will appear as a tooltip when you hover over a certain point at the insight. Adding pills to this tray is optional.

Dashboard runtime filters enhancements

This release enhances the user experience and usability of displaying and updating the dashboard runtime filters. When selecting a pill on the filter bar, the filter details appear just below the filter pill on the filter bar rather than the Filter dialog. This allows updating the filter details without moving to the top of the page.

Component SDK: Numeric Range Slicer

From the Component SDK Marketplace, you can add this optional external component to dashboards. This Numeric Range Slicer is a list or range selector created in the Analyzer. When creating your range slicer, in the Analyzer, you select one or more distinct date or numerical values from a dimension column. The selector will be displayed in the dashboard and act as a visual filter on the dashboard. Applying changes to the selector will filter applicable insights based on the selected dimension value(s).

Schema Diagram Viewer improvements

The Schema Diagram Viewer introduces multiple enhancements for better usability and visibility when viewing and managing cross-schema join relationships. External schemas are now collapsed and each displayed as a node with all join arrows that relate to the same object in the current schema combined in only one arrow. The diagram legend displays a key for external schemas with their number. A visual indication appears when you hover over the node of an object denoting that you can create a new join relationship.

Additional Enhancements and Fixes

In addition to the new features and major enhancements mentioned above, this release introduces some additional enhancements and fixes that help to make Incorta more stable, engaging, and reliable.
