Version 5.2  (coming soon): the improvements worth knowing about

Link chart highlighting

Selecting any object now highlights its connected network and fades everything else.

Cluster mode: highlights the entire connected network of nodes and links.

Neighbor mode: highlights only immediate connections – one step away.

When an object inside a group is selected, its parent groups are also highlighted. Long captions wrap automatically.

Directional traversal

You can now specify direction – incoming or outgoing – for standard link types connecting objects of the same type. Previously only available for connecting sets.

Dashboard visual editor

Click “Open Universe Viewer” to build and modify chart data sources visually without writing configuration code.

Data Scope Mode gives explicit control over how a chart interacts with dashboard-level filters: ignore them, expand based on them, or be limited by them. Enables side-by-side comparisons without widget interference.

Dashboard Grids now support server-side filtering and sorting – filters apply to the entire dataset, not just the current page.

Calculated column error messages

Formulas now return specific, actionable error messages – including the exact column that doesn’t exist.

Other improvements

Unsaved changes indicator: green dot (saved) or orange dot (unsaved) in the title bar. Tab titles more descriptive.

Without a Project mode: view and manage unassigned global data without loading all project datasets.

Read-only Universe Viewer access: users with read-only permissions can now inspect connection configurations via a new View option.
