12.14.2
2023-06-16
From version 12.10.5: Made tens of thousands of errata consisting of feature additions and speed improvements to bug fixes. This version implements many substantial improvements too many to list individually. This version is much smaller which means it installs and launches much faster. Drawing and the user interface is about ten times faster. Cloud interaction is orders of magnitude faster. Cloud connections can now be industry standard secured. Each text entry is now keystroke validated to ensure integrity before it is entered. All entries now have appropriate limit checks. Spreadsheet to graph mappings can take advantage of builtin unit analysis. Programming now includes individual formula generation. Thousands of bugs have been fixed. This version is universal for Apple Silicon and Intel 64 bits and is specified for El Capitan to Ventura macOS. Many deprecated calls have been replaced with more modern API. Tables, which is the bread and butter of data analysis are now much faster in all regards. Table cell entries format with ellipses as needed. A large amount of drag and drop examples have been added. Page navigation is substantially improved to the point that one document can contain thousands of individual single page documents if that is your desire which makes the Finder file system interface optional. New interfaces show summary of overlay and pages with names, number of graphics and other attributes. In summary, the previous version was world-class and this version makes that previous version look like amateur hour thus demonstrating the nature of continuous improvements where each version supplants the last in crushing domination. The development pipeline has been updated and is now much simpler and faster to vastly improve iterative release cycles.

This version marks the grand finale of the fifth total refactoring, which started over two decades ago, and focuses on stability and also clarity. Many of the edit sequences have been improved and cloud use is made explicit. Next up will be series 14.x in the epic journey of the most powerful data reporting tool known to humankind. Series 14.x is planned to as great a leap of ingenuity as previous releases. Because VVI is customer-centric your desires can be made actual and the first step in that realization is to email support@vvi.com with your ideas of what you would like to see.

One year of redesign and optimizations make this version better, stronger and faster.
12.10.3
2015-05-14
• Continued to refine the many recently added features such as dark mode interface theme (the theme can be changed back to the original theme as needed) and time series strip charting.
• Improved the color selector by adding additional controls.
• Enabled the ability to edit page zero, which serves as the backdrop for all other pages. Page zero is used for the background and grid and can also serve as footer and header backdrops for all other pages and overlays.
• Changed the way controls (buttons, dials, etc.) display disabled state so that they are more appealing, faster and also conform to the new interface theme guideline.
• Added the ability to edit the overlay identity string. The overlay identity helps determine the current overlay as well as describes the intended use of the overlay.
