Improvements to sheet editing experience

The sheet editing experience has been improved with the source table viewer and filters. Data tables and fields are now available directly from the sheet edit view in the source table viewer. Filters have been added to the properties panel, allowing you to quickly build filters to apply to your visualizations.

New straight table becomes default

The new straight table in the bundle is graduating and taking place in the chart section and becoming the default table. The old table will still be around in the asset panel. We recommend everyone to upgrade to the new table and enjoy all the new features. Over time the old table will be deprecated, announced well in advance.

Highlight selected field in data asset panel of the straight table

The current column is now highlighted in data asset panel of the straight table. Improves usability, makes easier to work with the table.

Custom CSS styling for sheets

Today we're releasing an alternative way to add CSS, in conjunction to include in a custom theme.

The sheet styling property panel now includes a custom styles section for entering CSS.

Keep in mind:

  • The CSS classes of Qlik analytic applications may change at any time.

  • The CSS classes are not an API.

  • Always use native settings first, any CSS modification should be a last resort.

  • Keep any modifications short--you may have to update them for changes on short notice.

Line chart shapes with labels and symbols

Enhancements have been made to shape creation (formerly known as plugins) for line charts. In addition to the points and lines, it's now possible to add labels and symbols with options for size, color, and placement. Shapes are a great way to increase data literacy by proving valuable context for interpretation of the chart.
