2.2

This release streamlines the creation of visualizations by adding user objects, templates and snap.

User objects

User objects provide an easy way to add elements to the visualization that aren't directly connected to database data. Examples include text to add titles, polygons to highlight areas, and lines to show connections.

User objects

Template layers

Template layers provide a list of beautifully designed layers for common use cases such as monitoring and asset management. Ejecting a template layer will transform it into a regular layer, allowing further customization.

Template layers

Snap

Objects now align automatically to the nearest object in the visualization. This gives extra precision when doing grid-based layouts and helps create more professional-looking visualizations.

Snap alignment

Dynamic Reports

A dynamic report runs a query and for each row in the result (e.g. asset) generates a visualization. The report is ready for printing and exporting, making it convenient for sharing and compliance purposes.
