FastCube .NET 2019.4 release notes
New features
Expressions
This release brings expressions support to FastCube .Net. Before it was only possible to add calculated measures or totals using the scipt on C# or VB.Net. Which was quite inconvenient for people handling reports on daily basis. So we decided to add expressions which you may know from our FastReport product.
Please checkout our updated documentation and examples to better understand expressions and how they work.
Cube options dialog
New Cube Options dialog which comes as a replacement for Information dialog adds the ability to switch script language and add assemblies to particular cube.
DisplayFormat for dimensions.
We added the ability to set display format to dimensions. This is useful when dimension data type is not string. Use AxisField.DisplayFormat to get/set format value or use Dimension Editor.
Bind dimension caption with dimension content
It is now possible to bind dimension caption width with it content in axis. We added property AxisContainer.BindCaptionWidth and Slice.BindCaptionWidth to control this behavior.
| BindCaptionWidth = False | BindCaptionWidth = True |
|---|---|

Ignore case option for range expressions
We use range expressions for custom dimension filters and for measure highlight rules. Since this release you are able to ignore case for text comparisions in range expressions.
You can either do it in code by Range.IgnoreCase property or in the range editor.
