Abstract: An improved model-based approach for undoing actions in an application that was not previously configured with an undo feature is disclosed. Object models are constructed for each object invoked by the application. Snapshots of the object model are captured after every action to preserve the object model state at different points in time. The object model includes an object tree data structure having multiple nodes comprising data and metadata for the object. The object model is frozen and editing of the object is only permitted via an undo management engine. In response to edits from the application, the undo management engine responds by unfreezing the path of object nodes from leaf node to root node in the object tree data structure. Edits are applied to the object model at the leaf node. The object model can then be re-frozen to maintain the state of the object after each action.

Abstract: A system includes reception, from a user, elements of a database query including a dimension and a data source, determination of metadata of the data source, the metadata describing a domain of dimension values of the dimension, determination of whether to filter the database query based on the metadata, and, if it is determined to filter the database query, automatic generation of a filtered database query to limit the domain of the dimension values of a corresponding result set to less than the domain of dimension values of the dimension.

Abstract: Overlay visualizations are implemented utilizing data of a data layer. A table comprises a measure and two or more different dimensions mapping to a same value range. For visualization, the measure for those dimensions may be plotted along a common axis in a same chart. Accordingly, a query executes a UNION of multiple subqueries. A first subquery aggregates the first dimension over the value range, injecting a constant formula field to identify the original first dimension. A second subquery aggregates the second dimension over the value range, again injecting the constant formula field to identify the original second dimension. UNION of these subquery results presents one larger dataset for input to the overlying visualization layer. The constant formula field may be relied upon to differentiate between the combined dimensions on the common axis, allowing association of the measure values with the original dimensions in the displayed plot (e.g., via coloring).

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. The program provides a first visualization that includes a first set of data from a first data model. The program further provides a second visualization that includes a second set of data from a second data model. The program also receives an association between a first attribute in the first data model and a second attribute in the second data model. The program further receives a filter on the first set of data from the first data model. The program also applies the filter on the first visualization. The program further propagates the filter to the second visualization based on the association.

A request is received from the second execution thread to handle the second message, the serialized text of the function is deserialized, and the deserialized text of the function is inserted into the modified object to generate a fourth object.

Abstract: Embodiments implement contextual styling of chart elements based upon metadata stored in the data layer associated with chart data. In creating a chart for the associated data, a visualization engine references the metadata to render appearance of a chart element according to the relevant metadata. This maintains consistent appearance of chart elements depicting the same data, across different chart types (e.g., bar chart and pie chart). The metadata may be stored in the data layer as a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) object, together with a corresponding identifier (e.g., representing a unique —story/-page/-chart/-chart element combination). Metadata within the data layer may determine appearance of chart data, chart axes, chart legends, and/or chart borders. The visualization engine may consult precedence rules governing application of different metadata (e.g., as between the appearance of a dimension vs. the appearance of a specific tuple including that dimension).

Abstract: A client receives data from a server that includes a dashboard generated at the server by converting each of a spreadsheet file and a dashboard structure file into a text-based, language-independent data interchange format. In addition, the dashboard includes at least one component dependent on at least one prompt. Thereafter, the at least one prompt is asynchronously rendered in a graphical user interface at the client. Data is later received that includes answers to one or more prompts. At least one query is subsequently executed based on the received answers. After results of the executed at least one query is received, the component having a corresponding received answer is rendered in the dashboard. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
