Abstract: Various technologies pertaining to modifying visualizations are described herein. A client computing device requests a visualization from a server computing device, and the server computing device constructs the visualization responsive to receipt of the request. The server computing device further identifies anticipated transformations for the visualization, and transmits the visualization and the transformations to the client computing device. The client computing device displays the visualization, and responsive to receipt of a request to modify the visualization, executes a transformation provided by the server computing device to update the visualization.

Abstract: Systems and methods that supply extensibility mechanisms for analysis services, via a plug-in component that enables additional functionalities. The plug-in component provide additional custom logic for the analysis services unified dimensional model (UDM). Accordingly, server functionalities can be extended in an agile manner, and without a requirement for a new release, for example.

Abstract: A system that facilitates validating an object in a software design tool comprises a component that receives input relating to development of an object. A validating component, prior to compile, automatically determines whether the object is associated with an error upon receipt of the input. An alarm component can generate an alarm upon the validating component determining that the object is associated with an error.

Abstract: The subject invention pertains to systems and methods that facilitate development and debugging of calculations in a multidimensional data environment or model. Data cube calculation scripts, including those provided in MDX (Multidimensional Expressions), can be executed or applied incrementally. Breakpoints can be set with respect to a calculation script and the cube state can be viewed and queried via a user interface. Users are enabled by the subject systems and methods to step through calculation scripts, identify the effects on a cube, and alter the script if the desired results failed to occur. In addition to debugging, the systems and methods can be employed for initial development of scripts.
