Version 2.3.20 is a GA release of AppBoard that is projected for release in August, 2013. This page summarizes the New Features, Resolved Issues, and Known Issues in the 2.3.next release.

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 release is a fix release. There are no new features included in version 2.3.20.

Resolved Issues

This section describes the resolved issues that are included in version 2.3.20.

• Fixed an issue where user accounts can become locked when upgrading from enPortal 4.6 to 5.x, due to problems with establishing the last login time. Previous workaround was to update accounts.xml to set lockFlag="false", remove the lockMessage attribute and value, and re-import. Also, improved error checking and handling to report errors in this situation. (AB-337)
• Added the .../server/webapps/enportal/WEB-INF/data/pkg/debug directory and its contents to the list of directories that are preserved by the backup/restore process, so that data being used by Data Sources in offline mode is included in the backup package. (AB-279)
• Removed the Twitter data adapter, due to changes in the Twitter API causing lack of support for the feature. (AB-267)
• Fixed an issue in the Diagrammer Widget where the labels under certain icons were off-center. (AB-386)
• Fixed an issue where entity setting overrides (such as cacheTimeout) were being lost in some cases when default adapter settings were applied. Also, cleaned up and enhanced logging such that cache refreshing behavior is easier to review. (AB-433)
• Fixed an issue with trouble bubbles on the Vector Map Widget where no bubbles are drawn when there is no variation between points for the bubble size, or when the bubble radius field value is null. (AB-445)
• Fixed an issue when using Oracle as the AppBoard database, by changing BOOLEAN to BIT. (EN-23)
• Corrected several issues with the JSON data adapter and generated additional documentation and sample URLs. (AB-191)

Known Issues

This section describes the new known issues in AppBoard version 2.3.20.

• When using "Advanced" rules in a Colored Shape Filter or Icon Filter, once the "Advanced" option is selected it cannot be disabled. The workaround is to delete the rules for that filter and then return to the basic mode and re-create the rules. (AB-411)
• The Google Map Widget preview panel will occasionally show as blank in the Google Chrome browser when first creating the Widget. Workaround is to either refresh the browser, use a different browser, or re-enter the Widget editing panel. (AB-416)
• After editing a Timeline Widget with an Icon Filter, and selecting different icons in the filter, in some cases the Widget does not display the new icons until the AppBoard client is reloaded. (AB-363)
