  4. The measure elements are not displayed in the dimension areas;
  5. HTML OLAP Chart: Some minor visualizing downsides.  

RadarCube ASP.NET 3.00.0 (November 27, 2012):

We are glad to announce that we released the big update for RadarCube ASP.NET. The main feature of the new release is the new control HTML OLAP Chart that allows visualizing OLAP slices as graphs counting solely on HTML 5 capabilities. As an outcome this control works in Internet Explorer 9+, Mozilla Firefox 3.6+, Google Chrome, Opera 12+, Safari 6+, many other web browsers, and on the vast majority of mobile platforms and devices. Below is a short list of HTML OLAP Chart functionality.

  1. Several types of chart that can be changed in design time with the methods of TMeasure class: DefineChartMeasureType(SeriesType type) and DefineChartMeasureType(SeriesType type, bool showPointOnLines). showPointOnLines parameter defines whether to display point marks on the series' lines. Also the type can be changed in run-time with a mouse click;
  2. Getting extended info about an element of the series;
  3. Selecting elements of the series with the left mouse button click. Multiple selecting with Ctrl key or with the mouse frame;
  4. Context menu allows to filter the selected elements and get details on them;
  5. Hierarchy drilling allows to view info on different detail levels;
  6. Hierarchy pivoting in the areas of columns, rows, details, and also modification using the color, size and shape modifiers;
  7. Measure pivoting in the areas of values, columns, and also modification using the color and size modifiers;
  8. Interactive legend on a hierarchy modification. When clicking the legend element with the mouse the corresponding series elements change their state. The context menu allows to filter the series data at that;
  9. Measure modification legend;
  10. Data area zooming;
  11. Saving, restoring, and resetting the layout state;
  12. MDX queries;
  13. Calculated measures;
  14. Pivot and cube structure panels hiding.

In addition to the new HTML OLAP Chart control some improvements were made to RadarCube ASP.NET:

  1. Some bugs when working in IE 10;
  2. Integration to Visual Studio 12 Toolbox;
  3. Several minor bugs and improvements.

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.91.0 (August 5, 2012):

New features:

  1. Ability to show the error and user messages with a javascript function;
  2. Some improvements in the core of RadarCube.  

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.90.0 (May 21, 2012):

This is a transition version between the current version and the new version 3.0 that is currently in development. This version contains less number of DLLs: the assemblies RadarSoft.RadarCube.Web.Grid and RadarSoft.RadarCube.Web.Chart are now joined to RadarSoft.RadarCube.Web. So be careful on installing this new version:

  1. Remove "Register Assembly" directives with the references to RadarSoft.RadarCube.Web.Grid.dll and RadarSoft.RadarCube.Web.Chart.dll from the pages containing RadarCube;
  2. Remove all references to these assemblies from all your web-projects.

Bugs:

  1. MSAS: When drilling the areas with many multilevel hierarchies the error "Index out of bounds" may sometimes come up.

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.80.0 (March 28, 2012):

New features:

  1. HTML OLAP Grid: Smartphones and tablets support. RadarCube OLAP Grid now works with almost all mobile devices that support multitouch mode;
  2. SQL Analysis Services 2012 support. If you are going to connect to MSAS 2012 or use ADOMD.NET 11, then you need to use RadarSoft.RadarCube.Web.MSAS11.dll assembly;
  3. HTML OLAP Grid: The context menu now shown not only over grid cells but also over other elements like Cube Structure Tree, Pivot panels of hierarchies and measures. On touch-devices the context menu contains all necessary pivoting and filtering options.

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.70.0 (January 24, 2012):

New features:

  1. RadarCube code is significantly improved. Drilling and OLAP processing has been rewritten completely. As a result the grid hierarchies with lots of open members work much faster and take less memory.

Bugs fixed:

  1. FileNotFound exception in Save or SaveCompressed methods;
  2. "olapgrid_PagePrompt undefined" JavaScript error on clicking the "..." paging button.

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.63.2 (December 1, 2011):

  2. ClientCallbackMode property of OLAP Grid control has changed. Now JavaSctipt described by the property can be changed dynamically. This script is called on after the callback operation is over.

Bugs fixed:

  1. HTML OLAP Grid: "Wait for server response..." overlay is also shown on pivoting operations. This makes OLAP Grid more stable.
  2. Some minor bugs are fixed.

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.63.1 (October 25, 2011):

Bugs fixed:

  1. MSAS: Sometimes when running a project from within Visual Studio the error "Ensure that the server is running" might come up on connecting to a local cube;
  2. MSAS: Drillthrough actions might be ignored for Total and Sub-total cells when filter applied;
  3. The filtering in hierarchy editor is performed as "is equal to" instead of "contains"
  4. Deleting hierarchies from the page area did not always lead to cancelling the applied filters and refreshing the contents of the Grid.
  5. Ria and Silverlight: unselecting the visibility option for all members in the hierarchies editor (the checkbox in the root node) did not work on long hierarchies with the paging option selected.
  6. Recompiling Silverlight OLAP demo application caused the "error in XML document" error when running.

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.62.0 (August 17, 2011):

New features:

  1. HTML OLAP Grid: Native "Drillthrough results" window. Now you do not need to write a single line of code to display the results of "Drillthrough" operation in your browser;
  2. Silverlight add-on: New methods to locate the cells in OLAPControl: by row/column, measure, etc.

Bugs fixed:

  1. The error when applying the filter to the hierarchies which are not in any view area;
  2. When restoring the state from XML, the filter is not applied;
  3. The error when applying the filter to the date and name if the hierarchy is not in any view area;
  4. Some installer problems which may cause several test samples not to be working correctly.

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.61.1 (July 22, 2011):

Bugs fixed:

  1. RIA OLAP controls might not display if they sit on the web sites with Master Pages or if a part of User Controls;

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.60.1 (April 27, 2011):

Bugs fixed:

  1. HTML OLAP Grid does not react to the user's activity if it sits in some ASP.NET container like UpdatePanel or ContentControl. This prevents the grid from working in many web environments;
  2. Smart tags in RIA OLAP Grid may not work because of the type conversion error;
  3. The height and the widths of the RIA OLAP controls (if defined programmatically) can only be set from within Page_Init event handler, no later.

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.60.0 (April 20, 2011):

New features:

  1. We've significantly improved the compatibility of HTML OLAP Grid with different browsers: now HTML OLAP Grid correctly supports IE 7+, Firefox 3.0+, Chrome 6.0+, Opera 9.2+, Safari 2.0+.
  2. HTML OLAP Grid is redesigned. We've changed the way of tuning HTML OLAP Grid appearance.
    WARNING! As a result, you'll have to change the ASP.NET markup on the pages that contain HTML OLAP Grid. For details see the informational blocks below.
  3. We've changed the signature of the TOLAPGrid.OnShowContextMenu event handler: instead of the Menu class you should use the ContextMenu, instead of the MenuItem class use the ContextMenuItem.
  4. RiaOLAPGrid: we've added icons for displaying the key indicators of effectiveness.
  5. SL add-on: now the TOLAPGrid.OnDrawCell event receives the expanded data about the formated cell - this allows using the OnDrawCell event most effectively.

Bugs fixed:

  1. HTML OLAP Grid: the problem with displaying the context menu and the menu in the hierarchy filter editor in ASP.NET 4.
  2. HTML OLAP Grid: drag-and-dropping hierarchies in all browsers, except IE, could lead to errors.
  3. HTML OLAP Grid: the status of checkboxes in the Cube Structure Tree sometimes wouldn't be the same as the real position of hierarchies and measures in the active areas of the cube.
  4. SL add-on: activating a few cubes at once used to lead to unpredictable results.
  5. RiaOLAPGrid & SL add-on: Cube Structure Tree in the formula editor could be filled incorrectly.

 

WARNING:

As a result of changing the way of tuning the apeearance in HTML OLAP Grid, most of the style properties of the HTML OLAP Grid class have been deleted, as well as a number of outdated properties, like Cellpadding and Cellspacing. Thus, upon installing a new version you'll have to make changes in ASP.NET markup of HTML OLAP Grid: delete all the style properties, as well as the properties in the ASP.NET markup that the compiler will identify as non-existent.

Then you'll be able to tune the HTML OLAP Grid appearance by changing the TOLAPGrid.Skin property and, if need be, by manually correcting the css-file with description of styles. The way to do it is described below.
 

Information:

Starting from the 2.60 version we've radically changed our approach to defining the appearance of the HTML OLAP Grid.

Until then the appearance used to be defined by a group of properties-styles that could only be changed through the Properties window. This was inconvenient first of all due to the fact that these properties-styles did not provide sufficient flexibility and did not allow using the up-to-date CSS3 or other browser specific properties.

Starting with the 2.60 version the situation has improved greatly. We've added a Skin property to our HTML OLAP Grid. It defines the basic appearance of the Grid, that can later be tuned by directly changing the contents of the CSS-file, that defines the skin itself.

The color schemes of the basic skins in HTML OLAP Grid are the same as the ones from the jQuery UI set - the most popular set of jQuery plugins.

RadarCube CSS-files are available in the <RadarCube installation path>\CSS catalog and have names like <Skin name>.RadarSoft.RadarCube.css.

After you've made all the necessary changes, the css-file should be placed to the Temp\rs_img_1\<version_name>\jQuery\css\ directory of your web-site.

Anyway, when you first start RadarCube it will extract all these css files to that directory, so all you need to do is to replace the CSS-file with the one you've changed.

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.51.0 (March 25, 2011):

New features:

  1. The look and feel of the dialog boxes and context menus in RadarCube HTML Grid is improved;
  2. The formula editor in RIA OLAP Grid & Chart is improved;
  3. New checking if the writing to the Temp folder is available for the user. The writing access to that folder is needed for RadarCube to function correctly.

Bugs fixed:

  1. IE9 shows up duplicate context menus in the HTML OLAP Grid.

RadarCube ASP.NET 2.50.0 (February 24, 2011):

New features:

  1. Formula-based calculated members and measures for end-users! Now the end users can create calculated members and measures through a comfy interface. See details in the article Calculated measures and members in RadarCube;
  2. Built-in error handler. Now all the errors that might occur when working with RadarCube will not raise unavoidable exceptions in your applications. At that RadarCube can "cancel" the action that led to the error - that keeps RadarCube and your application up and running;
  3. New events TOLAPGrid.Error and TOLAPChart.Error allow to set up your own exception handling logic;
  4. HTML OLAP Grid now uses jQuery. This will allow to improve the performance, look and feel, and also add new capabilities.
