New Features & Improvements

PowerPoint (Windows)

• The function to convert think-cell1 diagrams has been improved in many details.
• A ".NET 6" variant of the software is available. This has a noticeably better performance but has certain technical limitations (e.g. incompatible with a certain MS Defender setting, .NET 6 runtime must be installed first).
• The waterfall start value can optionally be changed (default: 0). This also allows special waterfall scenarios to be created. For this, an auxiliary column must be inserted before the waterfall start e.g. with the title "<new>-100" for a start at -100.
• Mekko charts have been fundamentally revised and now support horizontal value axes, individually formatable data points and in column mekko charts: negative values and breaks.
• Excel links can refer to a dynamic range. The upper left corner is fixed and the link takes over the entire data range (until it encounters empty cells on the left and bottom).
• Value lines can be formatted and the value can be hidden.
• Data labels are automatically switched off, if a chart suddenly (e.g. by a link with a lot of data) would get a lot of data labels.
• Labels of new data points adopt the formatting of the majority of neighboring labels. (this helps when adding series or categories).
• Scientific notation (e.g. 1.23E+05) is supported as number format.
• Many small improvements, as well as fixing bugs.
• Small improvements, as well as fixing bugs in Gantt charts.
