May 18, 2023/0 Comments/in Corteza, Crust, Releases /by Mariya Koleva

Release notes:

Added ability to drill down metrics, by clicking on a data entry inside the metrics block. Based on the configuration it can either filter an existing record list on the page, that is showing the records from the same module as the metric, or open a new record list in a modal. The change was added to make it easier for users to filter record lists based on metrics data, in order to view the details of said data (1184).

Changed the sidebar of Low Code and Reporter to be scrollable just on items and the search bar and public/admin page button to be always on top. The change was made to improve the accessibility of the the search bar and the buttons for public and admin page. The change was made by making the sidebar components stick to top (1189).

Fixed charts and reporter elements utilizing aggregation erroring out. The issue was caused because the sqlserver driver does not yet support offloading of aggregation steps. The fix was made by keeping aggregation on the application level until a few blockers are resolved (f931275).
Fixed failing provision step reporting a malformed SQL statement. The issue was caused by the provision function which utilized raw SQL with is not compatible with the sqlserver. The fix was made by skipping that provision on sqlserver because it does not need to exist for that driver The driver was introduced with the structure change so it is unneeded (1d4ab0b).
Fixed failing a fresh provision on an sqlserver database driver with an SQL typecasting error. The fix was made by correctly handling and defaulting setting timestamp values (7675e5d).
Fixed tabs block titles getting erased once you add a new block to the list. The fix was made by not updating the title when creating a block (1170).
Fixed data and time input boxes not being responsive and resulting in being cut off on smaller screens. The fix was made by updating the date and time module field responsiveness (1156).
Fixed hash and query URL trim on URL input record field trimming the part before the hash and query instead of after it. The fix was made by changing the order of trimming methods to match their corresponding labels (1173).
Fixed hovering on record event on calendar agenda not showing the cursor as pointer. The fix was made by changing the cursor from text selector to pointer (1179).
Fixed workflow dry run process not stopping on server timeout/error. The fix was made by resetting the state and refreshing the trigger label so the spinner disappears (1195).
Fixed webapp page titles not shown on small screens (1175).
Fixed not being able to cancel more than one privacy request consecutively in {APP_NAME_PRIVACY} (a559569).
Fixed record organizer not showing any data for a multi value fields. The fix was made by removing sort on label and description field (1176).
Fixed record selector of a record selector showing the record field as an ID instead of text. The fix was made by properly resolving multiple record values (1176).
Fixed metrics block data not being consistent in page builder mode when configurator is updated. The fix was made by updating the metric base component with a listener that refreshes the metric base when the configurator is updated (1207).

Planet Crust releases Corteza 2023.3: Lots of front-end and UX changes make Corteza more flexible than ever.

April 20, 2023/0 Comments/in Corteza, Crust, Releases /by Brian Fleming

Planet Crust, the driving force behind Corteza, is excited to announce the release of Corteza 2023.3

Changes include: Multiple Page Layouts, Conditional Fields, Drill-Down Charts, Block Magnification, Tabs and Navigation Buttons, Support for SQLServer and more.

Multiple Page Layouts

Create different page layouts that show different elements to different users depending on conditions, contexts, roles, devices, etc. Page layouts let you dynamically change page elements and content based on who is viewing what from where. Create any number and sequence of different page layouts to customize the end-user experience. In addition to changing the layout, you can also define their relationships and allow users to navigate between layouts.

Conditional Fields

Set conditions for how a user journey will progress based on the choice a user makes or new data inputs/changes. Conditional fields let you dynamically hide or show information based on the contents of the page so you can streamline your user interfaces and show only the most important information.

Drill-Down Charts

See the data lists beneath charts by clicking on the chart. Go further and filter lists directly based on the component of the chart you click on. Drill-down charts let you filter record lists based on your interaction with the chart.

Navigate Between Records

For power users, you can now move to a previous or to the next record without having to return to a record list.

Open Records and Other Blocks as Modals

For a better user experience, you can now open a Record as a modal in the same page as a Record List or open Page Blocks as large-sized modals.

Navigation Buttons

Add URL buttons, Compose Page buttons or a drop-down menu for faster navigation and a better end-user experience. Navigation buttons allow you to define custom navigation inside your Low Code applications.

Tabs

Create more efficient UIs with tabs. Tabs let you place several Page Blocks in the same UI space with easy toggling between Tabs to access the different Blocks.

Page Icons

Add icons to Pages in the menu to improve the look of your navigation.

Block Refresh

Add manual or automatic interval-based refreshes of page blocks so that lists, charts and other blocks always remain up to date without the need for full page refreshes.

Bulk Editing of Records

End-users can now save time by bulk-editing multiple record values across any number of selected records.

Custom Login Screens

Customize your Corteza login screen by adding your own background and injecting CSS without the need to fiddle with the source templates.

Pre-Defined Record List Filters

Admins can create role-based Record List filters, allowing more flexibility as to who sees what and letting users quickly apply filters to Record Lists.

Add Images to User Profiles

Users can now add avatars or photos to their profiles for greater flexibility and customization options.

Copy, Paste and Clone Pages and Blocks

Design your dashboards faster than ever. You can now easily duplicate entire Pages by simply saving as new, then edit the new Page as you like. Or copy-and-paste Blocks on a Page for faster dashboard creation.

Mobile Geolocation Capture

Configurable geolocation capture replacing the previous scripting method for capturing geolocation from mobile devices. Set or prefill the current location while on a map for improved user experience and location accuracy.

Open Calendar Events in Modals

Configure a Calendar event source to open in a modal, a new tab or in the same tab so the user can see it without going away from the Calendar Block.

Disable Side Menu on Public Pages

Create more elegant end-user UIs by disabling the side menu on Public Pages in favor of the new navigation buttons.

Support for SQLServer

Support for Microsoft SQLServer as a production database.

Record Deduplication

We’ve added extended record duplicate detection configuration to support multi-value matching criteria and value-checking algorithms.

Planet Crust releases Corteza 2022.9.8

March 1, 2023/0 Comments/in Corteza, Crust, Releases /by lenny

Planet Crust, the driving force behind Corteza, has released a new update of Corteza that includes new features, changes and fixes.

Release notes:

Added configuration option that hides record list filtering. The change was added to enable configurators to hide filtering on record lists (8ebd25c).

Changed the link to the reminder record, it was added in the reminder sidebar list/edit. Enabled the ability to un-dismiss reminders. Added a date input field to set the date and time of the reminder. General UI/UX improvements for reminders. The change was made to make reminders more user friendly and easier to use by having the option to set reminder in more than 24h and to un-dismiss a reminder if needed. (885).

Fixed date multi value filtering using contains/not contains. The fix was made by adding explicit type casting for date time values to cast into jsonb format while parsing the record filter query (903).
Fixed select field translations not being shown unless the module is saved. The fix was made by updating the Select/dropdown configurator with a default initial state of the field options that are already saved (1706e52).
Fixed gauge chart metric functions not showing correct results when report produced multiple data frames. The fix was made by setting the dimension field to deletedBy which produces at most one dataset, since the gauge only shows one value (883).
Fixed issue of role with invalid ID stored in the local storage from displaying of the permission pages. The fix was made by filtering out the invalid role IDs from the local storage (886).
Fixed datasources not being saved when pressing the save datasources button in the datasources modal. The fix was made by saving the datasources when the save button is pressed on the datasource modal, instead of saving only when report was saved. (889).
Fixed the record list filter not working when field name included a hyphen in the field name. The fix was made by adding ‘-‘ (hyphen) to the allowed list of characters in the record list filter(query) (897).

Known bugs:

Filtering records using date multi-value fields with a combination of “AND” and “Contains/Not contains” will produce an empty record list.

Planet Crust releases Corteza 2022.9.7

February 10, 2023/0 Comments/in Corteza, Crust, Releases /by lenny

Planet Crust, the driving force behind Corteza, has released a new update of Corteza that includes new features, changes and fixes.

Release notes:

Added support for casting numbers to float inside workflow expressions via the float function. The change was added to simplify type casting by using a function instead of an intermediate workflow expression variable (38b6cb3).
Added ability to toggle block border. The change was added to make a better distinction between blocks when they are not shown as cards (860).
Added general UI/UX improvements. The change was added to make some invalid configurations impossible, provide a better overview of some resources and prepare styles and layouts for future releases (80117c0, ef7e864, 9acc109).

Changed making name property required when creating templates, dal connections, workflows, auth clients and sensitivity levels. The change was made because we were able to create a resource without any data entered, and with this change, we now have a requirement, and you cannot create a resource without data entered. The change was made by adding validations to prevent creating one of the listed resources without adding a name (38a02d5).
Changed the usage of chart.js on admin dashboard with e-charts. The change was made to remove all places where we used to use chart.js since we transitioned to apache e-charts. The change was made The chart is now in line with other charts in Corteza, and the date tooltips are now also correctly displayed (7daafa1).
Changed the record organizer now gets filtered based on the key field and key value. The change was made to avoid putting the knowledge on how to set up the pre-filter and make the record organizer work on the user. The change was made by generating a filter based on the key field and value and AND-ing it with the pre-filter (2398499).
