Release Notes 6.13.0
Version 6.13.0 introduces new features that improve model transparency, simulation flexibility, and user interaction. From visual guidance in the model editor to enhanced charting and annotation tools, this release focuses on delivering a clearer, faster, and more intuitive modelling experience.
Visual Level Indicators in Model Editor: Instantly understand dimensionality changes in your driver trees.
Split Slider Chart: Easily redistribute values within a fixed total using an intuitive multi-slider.
New Delta Functions: Calculate absolute and relative differences between non-consecutive values without filling missing data.
Visual Level Indicators in Model Editor BETA-VERSION
Color-coded level indicators in nodes provide an immediate overview of where levels are added or removed. Additional tags below the operation editor, tooltips, and configurable display options offer improved transparency in driver trees.
Split Slider Chart
A new Split Slider chart enables the redistribution of values within a fixed total using intuitive sliders. This simplifies adjusting percentage-based splits, ensuring the overall sum remains constant during simulations.
New Delta Functions
Two new functions—DELTA_ABS and DELTA_REL—enable delta calculations between non-consecutive values, without the need to fill in missing data points. These functions work across any dimension, not just time, and always calculate on the lowest available level of the specified dimension.
DELTA_ABS: Calculates the absolute difference between values.DELTA_REL: Calculates the relative difference using the absolute value of the prior entry as a divisor.
These new tools are especially useful for handling sparse datasets in a performant and precise way.
Other Improvements
Improved Performance for Model Validation: Model validation has been optimized to reduce redundant internal checks, resulting in significantly faster validation times—particularly in large models with many nodes or scenarios.
Perspective Layout Improvements: Perspective tiles now support automatic switching between vertical and horizontal layouts and offer a combined display of text and images for clearer communication.
Sheet Group Collapsing: Sheet groups can now be collapsed without hiding the active sheet. This allows for better navigation in large dashboards and reduces the need for scrolling.
Copy and Paste for Annotations: Annotations such as sticky notes and frames can now be copied and pasted within models and across projects. This makes it easier to reuse content and streamline model documentation.
