Release Notes – empower® Charts 9.3

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.
