User Interface Improvements in Smart View (Mac and Browser)
User interface improvements have been done in the Home panel and User Preferences panel in Smart View (Mac and Browser).
The improvements are as follows:
- Right-click menu in Smart View Home panel: You can now right-click on forms, ad hoc grids, and other artifacts in the Smart View Home panel to open forms or ad hoc grids and launch other functionalities such as Job Console, Copy Version, Business Rules, Task List, Approvals, and User Preferences. These options are additionally available under the Action menu in the Smart View Home panel.
- Variables tab in User Preferences panel: The associated dimension of a user variable is now seen up-front below the user variable name, instead of as a tool tip. Earlier, the user variable name acted as a button to open the Member Selector dialog, which was not intuitive. Now, a dedicated ellipses menu is introduced for opening the Member Selector dialog.
Business Benefit: These user interface improvements facilitate easy navigation and better viewing of details in panels.
