Activeboards
Attach table widgets as CSV in Scheduled Reports
Now scheduled reports allow users to receive such widgets as CSV files inside a ZIP file. Enabling this option will generate a single CSV for each table widget present in the Activeboard and all of them will be inserted into a ZIP file, which will be attached to the email along with the PDF report.

Updated Features
Alerts
Redesigned Post-filter menu
The post-filter creation menu has been redesigned to reduce the noise and make the process more straightforward. The Basic data section has been removed as it does not apply to user-created alerts, and the Date filters section has been removed as they can be applied in the Extra data section with the eventdate. The actions in the post-filter creation menu have been rearranged, and the possibility to change to any status has been added.
Extradata advance filter now stays open
The dialog to add a filter condition in the extradata advanced filter remains always open until manually closed, giving users the chance to interact with the alert list without closing already entered parameters. This is especially useful to check a specific alert and its extradata to find specific values that they can even copy to include in the filter.
Activeboards
New default layout options for legend layout
To display these widgets with a more friendly layout that facilitates visualization and analysis, the default options for the legend layout have been changed.
