What is AppBoard

AppBoard is a data integration and data visualization platform that dramatically redefines the cost/benefit equation for the development and deployment of real-time business systems dashboards. AppBoard allows you to connect, integrate, visualize, and interact with your data in a simple, straight-forward builder environment. The end result is powerful, compelling dashboards that summarize data from multiple sources and can be accessed from any device.

New Features

This section describes the enhancements to AppBoard that are included in version 2.4.3.

• Added access to custom HTML Widgets. These Widgets use the same framework as other Widgets, but are highly customizable through the use of the HTML Widget API. AppBoard provides an example HTML table widget for experimentation. (AB-751)
• Improved the performance of the system when editing Widget configuration. The Widget preview was enhanced to use an existing in-memory instance of a Data Collection, rather than re-loading the data for preview purposes. (AB-788)
• Implemented multiple improvements to assist with the handling of larger data collections. This includes three configuration options in [Install_Home]/server/webapps/enportal/visualizer/assets/config.xml to help provide balance between UI responsiveness and speed to process large data collections.(AB-800)

Resolved Issues

This section describes the resolved issues that are included in version 2.4.3.

• Fixed an issue where creating a Data Tip Action without selecting any fields to display in the data tip would cause an error. (AB-795)
• Updated the documentation and in-product display icons for each Widget to reflect the most current mobile device support. (AB-790)
• Fixed an issue encountered when displaying AppBoard Web Widgets in enPortal views with caching enabled in Internet Explorer 9 or 10. Content was lost when navigating away from a view and then back again. (AB-783)
• Fixed the the HTML example Table Widget in the Welcome samples to use only local resources. This corrects an issue where some sample Widgets would show incomplete content when running without an internet connection. (AB-799)
• Fixed an issue in the Tile Map Widget which could cause the client to crash for certain types of Tile Maps in an environment with no internet connection. (AB-798)

Known Issues

This section describes the new known issues in AppBoard version 2.4.3.

• In the Data Tip Action, a "widget-generated-data-tip" is not displayed for click actions. It does work for the more commonly used hover data tip. (AB-795)
