Release Notes

1.6.6 (April 19th, 2024)​

New Features​

All Platforms​

  • Added an optional description text box, controlled by the property showDescription, to the RevealView.
  • Exporting a grid or pivot to PDF will now generate "overflow" tables containing the columns that would otherwise not fit the width of the page.
  • Grid column width is now respected on PDF export.
  • Improved pivot grid visualization appearance in exports to Excel.
  • (Beta) Added server side paging support to the grid visualization. To enable this functionality and have it appear in the visualization editor Settings pane, set $.ig.RevealSdkSettings.enableBetaFeatures to true. Paging is supported in the following providers: SQL Server, MySQL, BigQuery, PostgreSQL, SyBase, Athena, and Oracle. The providers that support stored procedures will have grid paging disabled when a stored procedure is selected as these can't be queried like tables to return a range of rows. Additionally, paging is not available when processing data on server is false, as well as when using blended data.
  • SkiaSharp, SkiaSharp.HarfBuzz, and SkiaSharp.NativeAssets.Linux v2.88.3 dependency updated to v2.88.7.
  • A flag was added to the RevealView to control whether or not data tooltip previews in the visualization editor. They are turned off by default to prevent a query getting the first 5 rows. To enable this tooltip, set isPreviewDataInVisualizationEditorEnabled to true.
  • Blending is now supported in MySql when using process data on server.
  • Radial charts have a new look & feel. The old L&F are deprecated but if needed, they can be restored by setting RevealSdkSettings.EnableNewCharts = false.
  • Bar and column charts now include an overlap and gap setting in the visualization editor Settings pane. This allows you to control the amount of overlap between the bars and the amount of space between the groups.
  • The Treemap visualization now shows a tooltip on hover and highlights the node.
  • Playwright v1.27.2 dependency updated to v1.42.0.

Node​

  • Added dataSourceItemFilter property to the RevealOptions that allows the filtering of data sources items in the data source dialog

1.5.0 (May 4th, 2023)​

Breaking Changes​

  • In some scenarios, the information set in IRVDataSourceProvider was visible to the client and also stored in the dashboard file. That was not a desirable behavior, but it also produced some hard to reproduce issues when editing dashboards. Starting on 1.5.0, the datasource information set in IRVDataSourceProvider does not leave the server. Depending on the specific implementation of IRVDataSourceProvider, this might have a big impact. To make sure your implementation is right, generally speaking, make sure that if you have a non-trivial implementation of ChangeDataSource, then you also implement ChangeDataSourceItem, and that this ChangeDataSourceItem invokes ChangeDataSource on the dataSourceItem.dataSource object. In addition, when working with CSV, Json, Excel files coming from datasources like S3, Rest, etc., please take into account that you might receive a call to ChangeDataSourceItem with the csv/json/excel datasource item, and in that case you must make sure that the dataSourceItem.resourceItem is properly 'changed', which also means invoking ChangeDataSource for dataSourceItem.resourceItem.dataSource.
  • IRVDataSourceProvider now requires the implementation of ChangeDataSourceAsync.
  • We're no longer releasing an installer for the asp.net SDK. To get started, check the documentation at https://help.revealbi.io/web/getting-started-server
