Improvements

Conditional formatting

The description of a conditional formatting rule now also appears as a tooltip.

When you create rule-based (conditional) formatting, you can enter short text to describe the purpose and function of the rule. This descriptive text is now also displayed as a tooltip when the mouse hovers on the formatted field.

Note:

If the field has a description, that description supersedes the conditional formatting tooltip.

You can sort the widgets using the following criteria:

  • By Count: Orders the widget results by the number of matching records.
  • Alphabetically: Orders the widget results in alphabetical order.
  • By Status: Orders the widget results according to the order you set in the Configure Field…
  • By Date: Orders the widget results by date.

The available sort options depend on the field type. For example:

  • Status type fields can be sorted by count, alphabetically, or by status order.
  • Entity type fields can be sorted only by count or alphabetically.

Currency Fields

You can now display a currency symbol in Currency fields.

You can now display one of six common currency symbols, or enter a custom one. The currency is always displayed to the left of the value. This only displays a currency symbol, it doesn’t perform any currency conversion.

Note that an admin can prevent currency symbols from showing with the preference in Site Preferences > Language and Formatting > Display currency sign for currency fields.
