New features

• Option to copy group permissions from another group when creating a new group or editing an existing one in the admin area.
  
  
• Added support for specifying a time offset as the default value for datetime and timestamp fields.

UI/UX enhancements

• Add user-configurable option to switch the DV (and DVP) layout between single, two and three column layout. Can be remembered separately for each table.
  
  2-columns layout is applicable only for screens wider than 1200px. 3-columns layout is applicable only for screens wider than 1700px.
• Enable embedded table view and show next/previous navigation buttons in the detail view when in embedded mode
• Open child records in a modal rather than a new browser tab when clicking the child records count from the table view of the parent
• Add Ctrl hint to tooltip of Generate, Move up and Move down toolbar icons.
• Disable/enable 'overwrite all' and 'skip all' buttons in files list dialog based on status of selected files. This works as a quick visual indicator to the user that all the files are already checked or unchecked.
• Enhanced 'How would you like to begin your work' dialog, and added a link to download example projects.
  
  

Bug fixes

• Hide 'Print preview detail view' batch command from 'More' menu if detail view is disabled.
• Bug fix: hide 'Preview' button for parent records in child detail view if parent detail view is disabled.
• Fixed bug in table view print preview where clicking a thumbnail causes a modal with infinite loading and a 'undefined' error.
• Fixed ESC button behavior in upload status dialog to close dialog rather than open help

Server-side programmatic improvements

• You can display the navigation menus in the homepage by adding this code to the hooks/__bootstrap.php file inside a PHP block:
  

  Code: Select all

  define('HOMEPAGE_NAVMENUS', true);

• Used DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR instead of / in getUploadDir()
• Moved getUploadDir() source docs to admin/incFunctions.php
• Added isDetailViewEnabled($tn) function to return a boolean indicating if the detail view of given table name is enabled.
• Fixed/updated links in generated hooks source code documentation.
• Added Request::datetime() method to handle submitted datetime values.
• Added parseMySQLDateTime() PHP function to validate datetime values, and handle time offsets.

Client-side programmatic improvements

• Added AppGini.renderDVLayoutToolbar() function to render the detail view layout toolbar (can be overridden for custom rendering).
• Added AppGini.applySingleColumnLayout(), AppGini.applyDoubleColumnLayout() and AppGini.applyTripleColumnLayout() functions to apply the corresponding layout to the detail view.
• Added AppGini.storedLayout() function to get/set the stored layout for a given table and view.

Other changes

• Updated data type guidelines to be more informative and include date and time offsets.
