April 2025 release
LUY 8.1.1
April 2025
In this release, we continue making LUY more powerful and user-friendly by enhancing report handling and editing capabilities across the board. With several improvements to in-place editing, consistency across overlays, and more accessible table interactions, you now have a smoother and more intuitive experience managing reports.
Now, let’s dive into what’s new in this release:
1. New features
1.1 Rename reports directly in the report list
Users can now rename table view reports directly in the opened table view report. If you are the owner of the report or have edit permission, click on the report title and edit as necessary.
As editing a report name changes the report, you need to save the whole report (including any changes you might have done to the table view) in order to persist the new name. The report save button will become active with any change in the report name.
1.2 Tab consistency in the open report overlay
The open report dialog now includes the same tabs (All, My reports, Subscribed) as the reports page, making it easier to find and open relevant reports wherever you're working.
1.3 Edit report names, descriptions, and tags in the reports list
In the all reports list, users can now edit all reports they own, have edit rights, or in case of supervisor users edit all reports regardless of report-specific permissions. Using our now established table view edit workflow, report names, descripitons and tags can be changed.
New report tags can be created by typing in a new value and hitting enter. Our report tags are not case sensitive. That means, by typing in an existing tag but using different capitalization, the existing tag is selected instead of creating a new one.
All editing capabilities depend on user permissions: only users with edit or ownership rights (or supervisor users) can make changes.
The fields “report type,” “report content,” “last modification time,” and “author” are system-generated and remain read-only.
The “shared” status can still only be changed via the snack bar.
Some editing functionality may be restricted for inaccessible reports or reports with invalid attributes or missing permissions.
2. Improvements
LUY Nova:
Improved table-in-table behavior when using zebra striping – full rows now highlight correctly including nested tables. Hover highlights behave as expected, including dark mode.
Improved sorting behavior when renaming reports – sorting by name now reflects changes immediately.
Improved color of links in LUY to easily read them on all backgrounds.
Streamlined error hints on empty mandatory fields.
Streamlined design of the counter in the edit columns sidebar in the table view.
Adjusted styling for placeholder icons in the report list on very small screens – they now scale down instead of overlapping content.
Tweaked design of enumeration attribute editor.
Tweaked design of report sharing dialog.
Tweaked design of advanced filter dialog.
3. Bug fixes
LUY Nova:
Fixed an issue where full names, if they contained more than one first or last name, were not displayed properly for single and multi-responsibility attributes in both single element and table view.
Fixed an issue where number and date range filters in the advanced filter dialog would overflow outside the background area when the screen was resized.
LUY Classic:
Clicking a link in a markdown-rendered field in the single element view no longer activates the editor. Instead, the link opens directly in a new tab as intended.
4. Limitations
LUY Nova mainly introduces read only features and some basic edit possibilities. These features will be expanded on in the upcoming releases.
There are certain areas that are not yet accessible in LUY Nova, such as some diagrams, the dashboard, some administration and integration settings. For now, you’ll need to use LUY Classic to use those. Our release notes will, of course, feature any new addition to LUY Nova in the future.
