Improvements
Report Designer
To speed up the formula editor when dealing with very large formulas, the intellisense bracket nesting evaluation has been optimized and additionally is now limited to a default maximum level of 200 with an associated parsing duration of max. 200ms. Those default values may be adjusted by setting LL_OPTION_INTELLISENSE_MAXNESTINGDEPTH and LL_OPTION_INTELLISENSE_INNERTIMEOUT to different values.
The tree in the object list for linking dialog (!) is now drawn with anti-aliased symbols.
Selected objects can now be moved by clicking onto the frame and moving the cursor, even if they are not the selected one.
Marked LlOption.Wizard_FileNew as obsolete – this option does not do anything and will be removed in future versions. The user can choose to show or hide the wizard in the Designer’s options dialog. To force no project wizard, you can simply not redistribute the cmll??pw.llx.
Report Server
Cassandra, Firebird, MongoDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL, ODBC, OLEDB, Salesforce, SchemaAwareJson and SqlConnection DataProvicers are now supported as serialized DataSource (Creation through API / IntegrationTools.CreateDataSourceFromDataProvider).
Updated gRPC modules to mitigate CVE-2023-32731 and CVE-2023-1428.
Other
For charts with “on-object coordinates” properties in the axis, the formula in these properties can now handle variables and fields in the formula.
HTML object: Improved the positioning of list elements – especially with negative left-margin coordinates. Also, the quality of list-elements from type “circle”, “square” and “rectangle” are improved and now based on the current select font instead of geometrical figures.
