Released on June 18, 2015.

New Features

Dashboard

• New dashboard editor: we completely overhauled the way you edit dashboards. 
• Support for dashboard theming: dashboards and widget can now be styled. You can create custom themes for dashboards and adjust text, color and margin style properties. Themes can be stored, applied or exported and re-imported in other projects. This allows for nice integrations of dashboards into third party systems. More default themes will be provided in the future.
• Facet list widget: a new widget type that allows to mimic the filter list of the search tab. On limited space you can list a (sub-)set of all facets and filter to a specific value directly.
  
• Facet table widget: a new widget type to display facet values in table form. The columns are sortable. Multi-value facets are sorted by the best matching value.
  
• Horizontal result list widget: instead of using the iframe widget and inject the iframe result list url you can now display results in horizontal format directly.
  
• Numerical aggregations: facets of numerical values (important: they need to be predefined as such before loading the data!) can now be aggregated and shown as sum, average, minimum or maximum value. Optionally these aggregations can be calculated based on the values of another facet.
  
• Headless dashboards: dashboards can be configured to be shared without the header line for nice and compact integrations.
• Share on Chatter: For SDFC integration the horizontal result list widget can be configured to allow sharing of the items directly on chatter. You can adjust the shared message and select a group to whom you want to share it.
  

Search

• Removed list, columns and charts view: We removed the charts view as this view can by now be completely created in a dashboard. The remaining list and columns view got merged into one remaining result list view.
• Custom sorting: It is now possible to sort the result set by any (or even multiple) field. This feature is currently only available in the query field. For the correct query syntax please refer to Query Syntax#Sorting

Improvements

Dashboard

• Improved selection reset: additionally to the reset option on each widget (which we visually improved) a new filter icon indicates now whenever any selection is active in a dashboard. On hover of this filter icon you can see a list of all active selections and remove them individually or completely.
       
• IFrame widget: Introduction of %u (user), %d (dashboard title), %p (project titles) and %q[...] as additional iframe parameters to be used as placeholder in the iframe url. Full documentation can be found here: Widgets#Desktop-iFrameiframe
• Chord widget: Percentage of total values in shown in tooltips

Search

• The currently selected document visually sticks to the top/bottom of the list when scrolling through the list and allows to quickly jump back to the last location in the list.
• Improved view of matching pages and duplicates: For PDFs (and other documents with pages or sub-items) the matching pages are now shown in a separate column. The same is true for duplicates of a document. An icon indicates whether a document has matching pages or duplicates and opens/closes the corresponding column.

Improvements

• Ensures gripper doesn't overlay widgets in view mode.
• The theme hover colour was not properly applied to Facets Table's Keyword List.
• If Search Query widget was placed in a dashboard together with Result List with smart filter highlighting, and the smart filter query was part of the dashboard query, the Search Query widget would never load.
• Now hiding the Load More button from Facets Table widget if no more items can be fetched.
• Ensured theming colour is used instead of the configured colours in TagCloud/Significant Terms widgets, and removed the configuration options.
• Added widget title display to sidebar along with the type.

• Ensure Facets List opens to the right when its the first widget added to the dashboard.
• Ensure Facets List in Search screen is a sized scrollable container, and that the Search view does not become scrollable.

• Ensure sorting on read/starred flag is working.
