This page lists new features and fixed bugs for each QPR UI release. See also next planned releases.

Next Release: QPR UI 2018.5 (planned release date 2018-07-17)

Features:

  • 307332: The number and date formatting in the charts and gauges now adheres to the selected user interface language.
  • 307287: The number and date formatting in the data grid now adheres to the selected user interface language.
  • 307316: The color picker component used for example in defining the background color of a view was changed to a more sophisticated one.

QPR UI 2018.3 (release date 2018-04-30)

Feature Highlights:

  • QPR ProcessAnalyzer Flowchart visibility settings have been overhauled with a new visual presentation. New stepper elements allow for more flexible flow threshold settings while maintaining a user-friendly approach.
  • The ChartView can use the new conformance analysis that is part of the QPR ProcessAnalyzer expression engine. The conformance analysis compares your as-is process (event log) to the as-designed process (BPMN model). You can see the count or percentage of nonconforming cases for different dimensions, such as case attributes, case duration or start time. Also for the nonconforming cases, the reason for the nonconformance is available, such as which events are undesired in the process.
  • Editable Data Grid can now be used for creating and deleting Metrics measures and scorecards, and QPR Portal actions. Measures can be created from a template element containing set of predefined settings for the new measure. Editable Data Grid also supports relation attributes, which are useful for changin e.g. parent element, value setting, period or measure unit.
  • There is a new mechanism in the HTML presentation objects for quering data without defining datasets, called direct queries. This enables to create more flexible HTML presentation objects, allowing the amount of queries to vary.
  • The legacy Offline mode in QPR ProcessAnalyzer presentation object (PAPO) has been removed. The new in-memory core provides similar performance, and in addition ability to process much more data that was possible in the Offline mode.
  • The legacy Table presentation object has been removed. Existing Tables are replaced automatically by the mode flexible Data Grid presentation object when QPR UI 2018.3 is updated.

Features:

  • 306882 & 306883: The QPR UI apps for Android and iOS were updated.
  • 307302: It's now possible to query datasources using javascript in the HTML presentation object.
  • 307281: The Editable Data Grid now supports creating, deleting, and copying objects.
  • 307289: The deprecated Data Table presentation object was removed. Tables from old versions will be automatically converted to Data Grids.

Fixed bugs:

  • 218439: Changing the value of a context variable that was used in a dataset didn't refresh the dataset.
  • 218434: Dataset cache was not cleared when a user logged out and logged in again.
  • 218447: Fixed an issue where a changed panel identifier was not updated to all versions of the panel.
  • 218419: Fixed an issue where a panel header referencing a dataset didn't work.
  • 218437: HTML presentation objects no longer get reinitialized after resizing.
  • 218449: Fixed an issue where federated authentication didn't work when a use had an active IWA session open.

  • It's possible to change following graphical layout settings for dashboards: view background color, space between panels (view inner margin), space between view border and panels (view outer margin), panel background color, space between presentation objects (panel inner margin), space between panel border and presentation objects (panel outer margin), panel border color, panel border width and border corner radius. (more information)
  • PAPO contains Influence analysis for case attributes shown in a table format. PAPO also has changeable analysis settings for Variation, Profiling and Duration analyses. In addition, it's possible to use Profiling analysis (distribution of case attribute values) and Duration analysis in the Control window. Also buttons in PAPO have been rearranged more logically. (more information)
  • Data grid's popup menu supports selecting multiple rows and cells. List of selected cells or rows can be stored to context variables. (more information)
  • View contains an aspect ratio flex setting which determines how much view's aspect ratio is allowed to change from the designed in different type of screens. This enables the view to scale reasonably in different devices. Note that in the design (unlocked) mode, view uses the designed aspect ratio, and in the locked mode the aspect ratio is adjusted for the screen. (more information)
  • Data security improvement: QPR UI user session expires after configured amount of time requiring a new login. If the expiration time has not been changed by an administrator, the default expiration time is 30 minutes.

QPR UI 2017.3 (release date 2017-04-12)

Feature Highlights:

  • SVG graphics is a new presentation object, which can be used to create graphical drawings containing e.g. shapes, text and images. It's possible to use context variables in the SVG to show data from source systems. It's also possible to bind actions e.g. when clicking SVG shapes.
  • Clicking web browser's Back button goes back in context variable change history, so e.g. selections and view changes can be rolled back using the Back button.
  • Visual layout of the Data grid presentation object can be changed with CSS styles. E.g. font size, font style and row height can be changed.
  • Panel's fullscreen icon can be hidden for each panel separately, which is useful when the fullscreen functionality is not relevant for a panel.
  • PAPO has a new window system, containing a control window and analysis window. PAPO contains now Profiling and Duration analysis, and previously introduced Variation analysis works in memory mode. Visual layout of Flowchart start and end symbols have been improved. Also PAPO has a picklist for selecting process analysis model.
  • Presentation objects are arranged in a panel as they have been set in the panel designer (wysiwyg layout). It's also possible to set the allowed range for the aspect ratio so that the layout works better in screens with varying aspect ratios.
  • It's possible to use context variables in Data grid JSON settings. This enables to bind settings to context variables or set the whole JSON using a context variable.
  • Interfaces to external presentation objects have been improved. External presentation objects are web pages that are embedded in QPR UI using the External content presentation object. It's possible set and get QPR UI's context variable values from external presentation objects using JavaScript.
  • Scrollbar has been added to the left side presentation object toolbar so that all presentation objects are reachable also with smaller screens.

  • 306986 & 307017: The QPR ProcessAnalyzer Presentation Object (PAPO) now has a new window system.
  • 306953: The Panel Properties now has a property for defining how much the aspect ratio of the panel is allowed to change from the initial aspect ratio in different sized screens.
  • 306991: It's now possible to access session context variable values in the External Content presentation objects. In addition, it's possible to use relative paths as the External Content URL.
  • 306992: When the URL of an External Content presentation object is updated, the whole presentation object is no longer recreated, it just updates the content to show the page the URL points to.
  • 307000: The model shown in the QPR ProcessAnalyzer Presentation Object (PAPO) can now be changed via a menu.
  • 306999: The Start and End symbols in the QPR ProcessAnalyzer Presentation Object (PAPO) flowchart were updated.

QPR UI 2017.2 (release date 2017-02-28)

Feature Highlights:

  • Help tutorial is replaced by QPR UI Wiki available in https://devnet.onqpr.com/pawiki/index.php/QPR_UI_Wiki. For now, Wiki only has the old tutorials's material but in future it will contain lot of content e.g. detailed specs, use cases and concept descriptions.
  • Charts and gauges contain now lot of new settings that the dashboard designer can change using a JSON notation. These settings bring comparable amount of flexibility than in QPR Metrics.
  • Whole bunch of settings for data grid (table) that the dashboard designer can change using a JSON notation. E.g. filtering, searching, sorting, grouping, paging and column sizes can be changed.
  • Data grid contains a new popup menu that can be opened with right clicking. Selectable items in the menu can be freely configured. When an item is selected, configurable actions are triggered, such as changing context variables, navigating to other views and running QPR ProcessAnalyzer queries.
  • In chart mappings, it's possible to define that all rows and columns in the data are automatically selected to the chart. This is useful e.g. when the data contains variable amount of columns and all should be included as series.
  • New data source to create generic QPR Suite Web Services queries. It allows to use the full potential of QPR Suite Web Services in fetching data to QPR UI.
  • PAPO (ProcessAnalyzer Presentation Object) has two new diagram types: Flowchart Influence Analysis and Variation Analysis.
  • PAPO has also a new In-Memory mode where analysis is calculated in browser memory instead of in the ProcessAnalyzer server. In-Memory Mode provides huge performance advantages as the analysis results are available in a few seconds. Currently Flowchart Analysis and Flowchart Influence Analysis can be used in server and In-Memory mode.
