Usability improvements

Side navigation

The session navigation has been moved from the top to the left side of the page. The navigation is now displayed in a tree instead of a normal fold-out menu. To expand and collapse the navigation tree, click the menu icon in the top-left corner.

Toolbar changes

The toolbar of 4GL sessions is changed as follows:

  • Create Favorite command: If LN UI is running stand-alone, the toolbar of a 4GL overview session contains a Create Favorite command. The command creates a favorite item that you can access from the LN UI home page.
  • Create Bookmark command: If LN UI is running stand-alone, the toolbar of a 4GL overview session contains a Create Bookmark command for the currently selected row. You can access the created bookmark from the LN UI home page.
  • Search, Print, Quick Export commands: The Search toolbar command only shows the search dialog, while options to change the view are present in the Views menu. Similarly, the Print and the Quick Export commands start the default action, while additional options are present in the Actions menu.

Enum selection

An enum field supports search, showing all enum values that contain the search text.

Conditional formatting

The user interface to change conditional formatting has been updated.

You can now define multiple conditions for a field within a single format. In previous versions only one condition could be applied.

When applying a background color on a regular field, you can now choose between square and rounded edges.

At the front of a grid row, additional icons are available for selection.

UI skins

To change the appearance of LN, end users can select one of these pre-defined skins:

  • Light
  • Dark
  • High-contrast

Users can select the skin on the Preferences tab of the User Profile Details (uigwt0102s000) page.

Export of favorites

If LN UI is running stand-alone, individual end users can export the favorites that are displayed on their LN UI home page. Users can start the export through the Favorites menu on the User Profile Details (uigwt0102s000) page.
