What’s new in the documentation for the 10.4.7 release?

The DataMiner documentation is continuously growing and improving. That’s why from time to time we like to provide you with a summary of all things new in the DataMiner Docs.

In DataMiner 10.4.7, we’ve focused our attention on enhancing the Dashboards and Low-Code Apps modules, bringing you a suite of improvements designed to elevate your experience. Dive into the details below:

• Components displaying the same data will now use the same colors, significantly improving visual coherence and data interpretation.
• You can now add conditional colors when customizing component themes. By binding colors to specific regular expressions, data will inherit the conditional color when the display label of the data matches the specified text.
• The “On open” and “On close” events are now available for both low-code app pages and events, opening up a myriad of new possibilities.
• Low-code app panels will now remain open even when you switch pages.
• You can now close all open panels simultaneously with a single click using the new “Close all panels” action.
• Panels can now be configured to be draggable. This allows you to move an open panel to any location within the low-code app, ensuring important information is never obstructed.
• You can now use the new HideUI() method in the Engine class to hide the Automation script window in a low-code app. This will allow you to continue working inside the app while an Automation script is running.
• The line & area chart component now features zooming and panning functionalities on mobile devices. Additionally, the Y-axis range is dynamically adjusted when you zoom in on a chart using a query data feed.
• The new Search input component is now available. It functions similarly to the Text input component but includes an X button to easily clear its contents.

But those are not the only things we’ve changed recently!

• More than 125 new images have been added to the user guide to further enrich the documentation with detailed visual aids.
