The new Items property allows you to access all items, including
fields and buttons, as a single array. That makes it easy to
calculate the sum of all fields of a screen, or determine if all
fields of your app are valid, with short, readable formulas.
When multiple items are checked in the app designer that use the same
formula, this shared formula can now be edited. We also describe the
new special formula value Item and the related performance
improvements we've made.
The screens sidebar can now be resized, line breaks can be inserted
into formulas, sliders work better on touch screens and you get more
disk space for images. Our latest release is full of minor features
such as these.
The new function LET enables you to assign names to values for use
inside a single formula. LET can make formulas shorter and easier to
read and can help them run faster.
Named values allow you to assign names to values returned from
formulas. Unlike hidden fields, named values can represent anything a
formula can return, including screens and arrays.
Browse buttons and the BROWSE function allow you to determine if
links open in a new web browser window or tab or replace the app. An
app-wide default setting can also be changed, which also affects
where text box links open.
The bodies of sent emails can now be edited as templates, making for
a more comfortable experience. The fields to include can be set
visually. Most report-related properties can now be set through
formulas, and report-related action functions offer lots of
flexibility.
This sample app allows users to edit tags, which are often used on
online marketplaces like eBay. The app demonstrates many new Calcapp
features, like action formulas, the LET function, navigation buttons
and clipboard copy buttons.
Our documentation is now integrated into Calcapp Creator. A popup now
appears with function parameter information when editing formulas.
Documentation is also part of autocomplete.
