CDE 1.0-RC2 ready for test

More C-Stuff! Following a few reported issues of incompatibility with 3.7, it's time to release 3.7.

This is much more than a new build, as lots of bugs and improvements were made in all the projects contained in the bundle (CDF, CDE, CCC, CDA, CST). Yes, you heard right, CST is also included in the bundle. One of the most important issues includes support for dashboard rendering in IE (including CCC charts)

Pentaho dashboards on android and iphone

Dashboards are cool. Mobile is cool. So, dashboards on mobile devices must be good, right? I usually blog a lot about very technical stuff like CDE, CDF, CCC, CDA and all the community projects webdetails as been working on for the past years. This blog post isn't technical, is just one picture showing the outcome of all the tech talk.


We've been working with Mozilla for a while, and we've incorporated a lot of their values into our company - value opensource, contribute to community, adopt standards.


And being faithful to standards has its advantages. We tried to access one of our latest and greatest dashboards (like all others ;) ) with our mobiles and the result was awesome. An iphone on the left side, an android on the right (using opera, unfortunately the built-in browser doesn't support svg yet).


Powered by Pentaho, generated with CDE using CDA, CCC, CDF and all that jazz, made by webdetails:

CST - Community Startup Tabs

One of our customers, through a partner, asked us to develop a functionality extension to pentaho. We like that. In the true open source spirit, he allowed the work to be released to the Pentaho community. We love that. So here it is:

CST - Community Startup Tabs

This project allows pentaho developers to define a set of rules to define which tabs will open when a user logs in to pentaho. Example:

I want my financial users to open 3 tabs at start with pivot analysis, department managers to open 3 dashboards and everyone else to get the home screen

This is possible by editing a very simple configuration file that even supports regular expressions. Try it out.
