## ✨ <mark style="color:blue;">New Improvements</mark>

### Introducing Dynamic Rules

We’ve made **Conditional Formatting more powerful and flexible**, and it’s now called **Rule**. This enhanced feature helps users define clear conditions and actions, apply visual cues, and even **attach contextual Legends**.

**What’s New:**

* Conditional Formatting for Grid has been rebranded as **Rule**&#x20;
* **Rule** include **actions**, **priority handling**, and optional [**Legends**](#legends-in-toolbar) to explain visual cues
* A new **“Add Rule”** button allows users to define:
  * **When** a condition is true
  * **Then** perform formatting or interaction actions

**Key Rule Enhancements:**

* **Action types** now include:
  * Cell Format
  * Cell Highlight
  * Row Read Only
  * Row Highlight
* Support for **multiple rules per column**, with automatic priority ordering
* **Drag to reorder rules** using a built-in handle.
* If multiple rules apply to the same field **Format** (Read Only, Hidden) takes precedence over **Highlight.**

### Legends in Toolbar

Legends help users understand **why** certain visual styles are applied in the grid by showing brief explanations linked to each Rule.

* You can add a **Legend message** when creating or editing a Rule.
* If any active Rules include a legend, a **Legend icon** will appear in the toolbar.
* Each message is limited to **50 characters.**
* Legends are displayed visually based on the Rule’s action type — such as **bar**, **dot**, **fill**, **read-only,** or **hidden formatting**.

### Floating Summary for Selected Numeric Cells

A floating summary bar now appears in the footer of Grids and Matrices when users select multiple numeric cells.

* Displays **Sum**, **Average**, and **Count**.
* Supports standard Salesforce numeric fields.
* Currency symbols are excluded to avoid misrepresentation.
* Real-time updates as selection changes.

Minor enhancements have been made to improve the usability and consistency of the **Matrix Runtime and Configuration experience**:

* **Column Grouping for Y-axis** is now available in Matrix Configuration and Matrix toolbar.
* **Layout** options (Row Height and Auto Size Columns) is added to the Matrix.

### Reset Matrix Option

Once a user customizes the Matrix and creates their first **Inter Personal Copy**, a **Reset Matrix** button will appear under the **More Options (⋯)** menu.

Clicking this button restores the Matrix layout to its original default state, removing any personal changes made to the view.

### Improved Add Field Picker Experience

We’ve improved the experience of adding fields in the **Grid** by introducing a simplified and cleaner add field picker interface:

* **Hover over a column header** to reveal a “**+**” button. Click it to effortlessly add a new field.
* The **“Add Field”** button previously found in the footer has been removed.
* The **“+” icon** in the Grid screen has also been removed.

## 🐞 <mark style="color:blue;">Bug Fixes</mark>

We've addressed several issues in this update to improve your experience. Here are the details of the bug fixes included:

* **Related Lists Missing in IPC Created from Global Grid**\
  Resolved an issue where related lists did not appear in the Inter Personal Copy (IPC) view when created from a Global Grid. IPCs now correctly inherit and display all sections from the Global Grid, including the related list.

## <mark style="color:blue;">**Known Issue in Wave Browser Extension v43**</mark>

### Date/DateTime Conditions in Rules and Conditional Formatting

We've identified an issue when using **‘is any of’** or **‘is none of’** conditions on **Date** or **DateTime** fields in:

* **Grids (Rules)**: Wave may freeze or crash after a short time.
* **Matrices (Conditional Formatting in Configuration Matrix Mode)**: The Matrix fails to render completely after applying the conditional formatting, leaving the user unable to see or interact with the Matrix.

**Workarounds:**

* **For Grids**: Reload Wave and remove the Date/DateTime field from the **Rule**.
* **For Matrices**: Open the Matrix in **Configuration Matrix Mode** and delete the **Conditional Formatting** applied to the Date/DateTime field.

**Recommendation**: \
Avoid using ‘**is any of**’ or ‘**is none of**’ conditions on **Date/DateTime fields** in both **Rules (Grid)** and **Conditional Formatting (Matrix)** until this issue is resolved in a future release.

***

## <mark style="color:blue;">**What This Means for You**</mark>

These enhancements bring a more intuitive design flow, greater clarity in both Matrix and Grid, and smarter control over record creation and formatting. Whether you're analyzing data or building grids —everything feels smoother, faster, and more purposeful.
