When SquaredUp connects to a new data source, it can sometimes take a couple of minutes to index the various resources and objects. During this time, you can browse any sample dashboards that were installed but they often error or display 'No data to show' as they rely on the indexing process.

We've updated this experience to make it clearer that a data source is still indexing, or flag more clearly when a data source has failed to index. When visiting a sample dashboard you'll see a modal indicating it's in progress or has failed, a link to view further information on the data source page.

We've recently shipped a few small improvements to our fullscreen view. The most notable of these is that we'll launch the fullscreen when interacting with the visualization (unless there is a better drilldown/view to show). For example, when clicking on a donut chart we'll launch the fullscreen view so you can easily see the data behind the visualization. Alongside this we've also shipped the following improvements:

* Added resizable sections to allow you to focus on either the viz or data

* Added table search functionality

* Added a close button for clearer UX

* Displaying data stream warnings

It's now even easier to rename your dashboards. You no longer need to enter edit mode to rename a dashboard. As long as you have permission to do so, just click the title and rename!

If you've used the Table visualization, you'll be familiar with the ability to sort by any column. Sadly, this same functionality was not available in the Objects tab of the tile editor. We've now retrofitted this functionality, so it's now possible to sort by any column.

To sort a column, click on the heading for that column, A-Z. Click again for Z-A, and again to clear the sort.

When using a Bar chart, you can now display a total annotation. The total shows the sum of all series in any given bar.

To enable the total annotation:

The Donut visualization now supports showing data as percentages, making it easier to understand what makes up the data shown on your charts. This is great for showing data like Cost by service, or Tickets by priority.

To enable percentage mode:

Receive notifications at a repeating interval if a monitor remains in an error or warning state. New notification rule options let you set customizable intervals (e.g., hourly, daily) with flexible configurations like fixed or increasing intervals, and limits on occurrences. Great for on-going issues tracking.

A new "Install sample dashboards" button on the data source overview page allows users to easily reinstall sample dashboards. Users can choose to install all or specific dashboards. This feature eliminates the need to unlink and relink the data source to get sample dashboards.

We've made a small tweak to our table visualization based on user feedback. We've removed the old-school pagination controls at the bottom of the table and replaced it with a simple scroll. You'll still see the total number of results displayed at the bottom right.

A while back we released the tab in the tile editor, it's a way for users to manipulate the columns that are returned from a data source and specify formats, e.g. marking something as a date or removing decimal places. We've recently made a few tweaks to the user experience to make it easier to use and more clearly show the capabilities:
