Several enhancements have been implemented in this release:
- Control double-clicks have been replaced by normal double-click functionality. Control double-click was deemed necessary because double-clicking on a cell was one of the few ways to edit the contents. Now that double-clicking performs a zoom, there are several ways to enter edit mode in a selected cell:
- A formula bar, similar to the one in Excel, has been added. After clicking on a cell, its value will be displayed here for editing.
- Just start typing.
- Press the F2 key.
- Export to Excel. Clicking on this button will export the currently-displayed grid to a CSV file, which can be opened in Excel.
- Improvements to the Member Selection screen. Right clicking on a member in the outline on the left-hand panel now presents a menu of member selection commands (Children, Descendants, Level 0, Ancestors). Choosing one of them will apply the command to the selected member and add the resulting members to the Members Selected panel on the right. Members can be removed from the Members Selected panel on the right simply by double-clicking on them. Clicking the Save button will add these members to your grid at the selected cell.
This might well be the final beta before the production release. Testers have reported impressive stability and usability in a wide range of environments.
