Static Views

Allows pasting Views on spreadsheets without PALO functions while preserving their known manipulation capabilities such as Splashing (data entry), expand / collapse, Zero Suppression, etc.

Expand / Collapse on rows and columns

By clicking on the dimension, the dimensions on rows or columns can be expanded / collapsed to show / hide underlying child elements. Note that this feature has been adapted to work with a single click, as the Office-JS add-in does not support double-click events.

View manipulations

• Zero Suppression
• Detach / Rebuild

Notifications

The "Notify" messages in the notification section of the task pane will provide user feedback on the spreadsheet interactions. For example, error messages appear when entering invalid splashing commands, formula modifications with invalid syntax, etc.

New available language

German is now available in the latest version.

Clearing cell content

Using keyboard shortcuts, a static View cell or a cell with a PALO.DATA formula can be replaced by the value "0" (zero) in a numeric cell or an empty string within a string cell, without deleting the existing formula.

Log in with SAML SSO

Once SAML has been enabled on your Jedox Cloud, users can now choose to log in to the Jedox Add-in for Excel 365 via SAML SSO.

Edit the POV (Point of View) Elements - Deprecated in version 2.3.0

You can manually edit the View's header dimensions, if you know the labels of the existing elements (string or number) within that dimension. The View automatically recognizes the element and retrieves the stored data according to the structure of the new View.
