We are excited to announce the latest updates and enhancements in our newest release. This version includes new features such as Formula Field Support for Images in Wave Embedded, Reset Global View Option for Standard Users, and support for Formula Fields with Hyperlinks. Additionally, we have an enhancement for Automatic Metadata Refresh for Objects, along with various bug fixes to improve your overall experience.
We are excited to introduce support for formula fields that return images in Wave Embedded. This enhancement allows for the following:
Image Support: Formula-generated images will be visible and functional within Wave.
Source Flexibility: Images can be sourced from any relative or absolute URLs, including 'cdn'.
Responsive Design: Images will automatically adjust to fit within the selected layout, ensuring they display properly within their designated cell.
Interactive Preview: Clicking on an image will open a preview.
This new feature aims to enhance the usability and functionality of image fields in Wave Embedded.
Formula fields with hyperlinks will now be displayed as clickable links within the grid, allowing direct navigation to related records or VF pages.
This feature streamlines workflows and enhances productivity by enabling direct navigation and action initiation from the grid view.
Users now have the option to revert their custom view to the Global view version initially shared with them.
This feature ensures that standard users can easily revert to the original shared view if needed, maintaining data integrity while removing any unnecessary customizations.
Users can now export data by downloading the view to an Excel or CSV file. This feature allows users to rename the file, choose the file type, and select the number of records to export.
This feature ensures that standard users can easily export or download the data in CSV or Excel format file.
We have implemented an enhancement to streamline the process of refreshing metadata for object's fields, particularly in the Grid Wizard. Newly added fields will now automatically appear after refresh the page without the need to manually click the "Refresh" button of the Object.
This update aims to improve efficiency and ensure that users can seamlessly access newly added fields within their objects.
In this release, we have addressed several issues to improve user experience and functionality.
The view was displaying the initial grid view instead of the new grid view when switching to full screen. Now, the view properly displays the new grid view when entering full screen mode.
The "Save Changes" and "Close" (Cross) icons were not properly aligned in full screen mode. This has been fixed, and the icons are now correctly aligned in full screen mode.
Fixed an issue where users were unable to paste lookup values in the grid. Previously, copying and pasting lookup values from one record to another did not work as expected.
Resolved an issue where the dashboard failed to display Lead grids after switching objects. Now, searching for "Lead" again will properly display the related grids.
Fixed an issue where selecting values from the controlling picklist displayed the API name instead of the label. This also affected the dependent picklist. Now, the label of the picklist value is displayed instead of the API name.
Fixed an issue where the formula field (Full Name) on the Contact object did not update immediately after changing the First Name and Last Name fields. Previously, the Full Name field only showed the updated value after refreshing the page. Now, the formula field updates immediately once the First Name and Last Name fields are changed and saved.
When multiple relationships to the same object exist, it is difficult to differentiate between the relationships in Wave Embedded & Extension. This issue has been fixed by updating the display format to show the related object's plural name followed by the field label, ensuring clarity and differentiation between relationships.
