Key Updates

Supporting Option Limit for Checkbox and Multi Select

In Ver.8.5.0, a new feature named Option Limit is introduced for the Checkbox and Multi Select fields. This feature allows you to validate the number of selected options. Option Limit is suitable for the scenario where you need to limit the number of options to fill, effectively reducing the cost of form building and greatly improving the user experience.

For example, you have an event registration form and you might want to limit the number of sessions or activities they can choose to ensure that everyone has an opportunity to participate in a reasonable number of events.

Selecting Multiple Subrecords with the Shift Key

When using the Select Data field in a subform, you can now use the Shift key to tick/untick multiple records. Simply hold down the Shift key when selecting one item, and then select another item to automatically tick or untick all the options in between. This update enhances data selection efficiency and helps prevent missed or incorrect selections that can occur with repetitive ticking actions.

Supporting Confirmation Before Deleting Dashboard Component

When deleting a component on the dashboard-editing page, you need to confirm the action before deleting. This avoids component misdeletion, ensures a more stable and secure dashboard-building process, and improves the building experience.
