Just 2 months after the release<\/a> of Fix Pack 3.3, today SAP gives<\/a> us Fix Pack 3.4<\/strong> for Xcelsius 2008 SP 3<\/strong>. You can grab the download from\u00a0this<\/a> page. This Fix Pack can be applied to Xcelsius 2008 SP3 or FP3.1, FP3.2 or FP3.3. Not sure which version you are running now? Have a look at this post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Get the Release Notes here<\/a> (PDF) and all Fixed Issues are listed in this<\/a> document (PDF). I also listed them below:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The Xcelsius Scorecard component shows inconsistent behavior.\n
    This issue is resolved. The font-style value is retained when you rebind the data. Format information <\/em>is not retained and will be retrieved directly from Excel for each binding. Column width is not updated <\/em>when you rebind data.<\/em><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  2. A negative value set in a secondary axis will be missed when a combination chart is generated.
    \nThis issue is resolved.<\/em><\/li>\n
  3. When a child dashboard is loading and you switch between tabs, the child dashboard fails to load.
    \nThis issue is resolved, but if you put the SWFLoader in a container and fast switch the container, dynamic visibility will still have\u00a0problems.
    \n <\/em><\/li>\n
  4. <\/em>A color set in “Selected Text” (under the label property in the Scorecard component) is not updated in the component after you use a custom color scheme.
    \nThis issue is resolved.<\/em><\/li>\n
  5. The size of a spreadsheet component becomes unstable when you ignore a blank cell.
    \nThis issue is resolved.<\/em><\/li>\n
  6. A blank error appears in Xcelsius when you add components.
    \nThis issue is resolved.<\/em><\/li>\n
  7. An Xcelsius 4.5 dashboard cannot be opened in Xcelsius 2008.
    \nThis issue is resolved.<\/em><\/li>\n
  8. When you are using a custom canvas size, tooltips for charts display incorrectly.
    \n<\/span>This issue is resolved.<\/em><\/li>\n
  9. If a BICS query input has the numeric value 0, the value is not passed with the request.
    \nThis issue is resolved.<\/em><\/li>\n
  10. Xcelsius cannot send null values to BEx via Live Office.
    \nThis issue is resolved. Specify the new flash var “LOIgnoreEmptyPromptValues=True” to ignore\u00a0empty prompt values.<\/em> There are two limitations:<\/em>
    \na.\u00a0You must specify CSV as the flash var format (instead of XML format) when you set\u00a0“LOIgnoreEmptyPromptValues”.
    \nb.\u00a0When you set all prompt values as empty (null), the system returns incorrect query results. (The\u00a0problem is limited to when you set flash var “LOIgnoreEmptyPromptValues=true”.)
