What's new in version 3.1

Version 3.1 brings new features and fixes to Avonni Components for Salesforce Flows. Here's a look at the updates.

Updated features

Alerts

We added a line-clamp styling hook to content for alerts. This helps you maintain neat, clean, and reader-friendly alerts.

Better Button Group management

Your control over the Button Group component has improved. You can now disable and hide specific buttons, making it easier to handle complex user interactions and keep your interfaces intuitive.

Calendar updates

The Avonni Calendar Flow Screen Component now includes filtering and searching. Here's what changed:

• Filter function: Customize your calendar view to display only the events, appointments, or deadlines relevant to you.

• Search capability: Quickly locate specific events or appointments based on criteria like the event's title, location, or attendees.

Data Table new features

The Data Table component saw multiple updates in this release:

• Search queries on specified fields: Perform search queries on specific fields in the underlying dataset, even if they are not visible in the table view. Makes it easier to dig into large datasets and retrieve precise information.

• Display errors in the footer: Errors now appear in the footer of the Data Table, keeping your table view clean and focusing attention where it's needed.

• Hidden property to columns: Add a hidden property to columns for more flexible data display. Useful when you need to store data that isn't necessary for display but is important for calculations or reference.

• DefaultSearchValue attribute and Lookup type: The 'defaultSearchValue' attribute lets you set a predefined search term in your tables. When the data table loads, it automatically starts searching using this specified term. We also introduced a new 'Lookup' data type that automatically links data in your table to the corresponding lookup record name.

Image interactivity

Images are no longer static elements. Two new features change how you interact with them.

The Image Magnifier lets users zoom in on images with three distinct zoom modes:

• Inner Zoom: Zooms within the original frame of the image, letting you focus on details without changing the image size on screen.

• Standard Zoom: Enlarges the image beyond its original frame for a closer look at details.

• Follow Zoom: The zoom follows your cursor as you move across the image, creating an interactive exploration of details.

The Image Comparison Slider places two images side by side. The slider lets users control the reveal of each image -- useful for tracking changes over time, comparing similar items, or providing a before-and-after view.

More customizable lists

The Avonni List Component gets several enhancements for better readability, interaction, and navigation.

You can now add headers to your lists. Label and identify sections within your lists to improve structure and readability. Particularly useful for long lists or lists with diverse categories.

The new 'card' option for dividers segregates items into individual cards, creating visually distinct sections for each item in your list.

We also added infinite loading -- as users scroll down, new items load automatically.

Finally, you can now add unique fields to each list item in Salesforce. Every item in your list can carry specific details, offering a more granular view and comprehensive insights at a glance.

Formatted Value

Lookup type: Following the update in the Data Table, we added the new "Lookup" type to Formatted Value for consistency across components.

Progress indicators

Progress indicators now allow variables for completed and error steps, giving users a clearer picture of their progress.

Fixes

Date Picker

The Date Picker now uses the user's timezone, ensuring date and time information is accurate for the user's locale.

Data Table

We improved Data Table usability by hiding non-filterable columns for a cleaner interface. Filtering for picklist fields now shows all picklist values by default, speeding up your data filtering process.
