Release Notes

New Features

Bugs

RE-33499
The button labeled Refresh has been removed from the Attach to Function dialog and the Attach to Variable dialog, where it was non-functional. The button is still present on the Attach to Cache dialog, where it works as intended.

RE-32621
The Display Settings dialog no longer shows an asterisk in the title bar after making a change and clicking Apply. Now the asterisk is cleared after the user clicks Apply as expected, indicating that the changes have been applied to the display.

RE-31723
When a new object is dragged from the palette and over the display area, it is no longer possible to open the context menu by right-clicking before dropping the object onto the display.

New Features

RE-30273
The table object now allows the user to save runtime changes made to a table's column settings. The column settings are sort, filter, order, width, and visibility.
Clicking on Settings > Save All from the dropdown column menu on any column will save the current table settings in the browser's local storage. The saved settings will be applied to the table each time the same user opens that same display in the same browser on the same device.
Clicking on Settings > Clear All will clear the table's custom settings and reset the column settings to the default.
The settings are stored in the browser's local storage, using a unique key created by combining the user name, the display name, and the table object's id. In RTView Cloud, the current organization and the display's owner name are also included in the key.

Caveats/limitations:
1) The columns may not be restored to their saved widths if extra space is available in the table, they may be wider.
2) In previous releases some column settings (sort, filter, visibility) on the Alert tab were preserved automatically during a browser session. But those were not stored permanently and not all of the settings were recorded. That automatic feature has been removed. So now on the Alert tab, click Settings > Save All in the column menu after making any column changes you want to preserve.

Two Apache Kafka displays have been modified to use new caches.
The Kafka Single Broker Summary display now uses history from the new KafkaServerMetrics cache.

RE-31511
An argument named nullOK has been added to the joinOuter function. The default value is blank.
If nullOK is set to true or 1 the joinOuter result is updated when data is applied to either leftTable or rightTable, rather than waiting until data is applied to both tables. This is useful in the case where one of the table arguments is attached to a cache that may not exist.
If nullOK is blank or set to any other value, the function result is updated only when data has been applied to both leftTable and rightTable, as in prior releases.

RE-31503
