Changelog

[2.7.0] - 02-09-2022

Added

• Improvements to the network diagram. Now you can store the positions of nodes in either setting or in a parameter of your choice.
  • There are two ways to save the position of nodes: settings and parameter. Save to the settings is only available to the dashboard designer. Save to the parameter is available to the dashboard designer and the dashboard user. This feature improves the usability of the extension by letting the users create their view.
  • Added a new drill action to highlight all relationships, which lets you highlight the direct parents and all direct and indirect children of the selected node. This option is available in settings as well as in the analytics pane.
  • Fixed minor bugs with the link and arrowhead opacity in the network diagram.
• Improvements to the waterfall chart
  • Now you can control the Y-MIN value in the waterfall chart. The percentage value represents the percentage of the total value. This feature now lets the users highlight the important values in the chart.

Added

• New visual: Network Diagram 2.0
• A network diagram is a data visualization method that allows users to easily understand relationships in data. Now we have a new version of Network Diagram with improved and new functionalities. With the new Network Diagram, it is now comes with lot of customization options.
  • The nodes offer many customizations, for eg., you can also pin nodes to any position in the canvas, and can unpin with a right-click.
  • An outer circle can be added to the node with a custom colour from the data (The colour can be set from the data).
  • Search bar is added to search and highlight a node or link.
  • The old version of the network diagram is deprecated now but it is still available. The new version is more user friendly and more interactive and filled with more options with more customization options.
• New Visual: Geo Sankey
• Inspired by the already existing Sankey Diagram now we have added a new type of Sankey diagram that can visualize flow in different magnitudes from different locations geographically. Dashboard action can be performed from both nodes and links. The viz will be plotted on top of an interactive, zoomable map.
• You'll need 6 dimensions and a measure to create a simple Geo-Sankey diagram
  • Dimensions: -Source : Source name -Source latitude -Source longitude -Target : Targety name -Target latitude -Target longitude
  • Measure:
  • Flow :Value
• There are various colouring options available for the links. However, the source and target nodes always need to be coloured manually.
• The dashboard designer can configure the visibility of the flow path to always be visible or to be visible only when the user clicks on the node.

IMPROVED

• Improvements to the zoom and draw functionality in the Sankey Diagram. Now if there are a very high number of nodes in the Sankey, the diagram shrinks to fit the screen. Later you can zoom in and out to see the full flow.
