Visual Builder Features

Feature Description Minimum Version Required
Dark theme for web apps When you create a new web app using the default template, you can now customize the app's theme to show components against a dark background, instead of the default light background with dark text. You can even let your users choose between a Light and Dark theme. CSS variables to override the default Redwood look and feel are still supported—only now you make those overrides in the CSS files specific to the Light and Dark theme. See Customize a Web App's Appearance. n/a
Opt-in for Core Pack components

Core Pack components, available under the Early Access category in the Components palette since 24.04, now require an opt-in if you want to use them in your application's pages. If you use these Core Pack components in your app, take note that Core Pack does not support theming at this time. The only way to theme your app is to roll back Core Pack usages in your app to Legacy components and re-implement your application.

If you don't ever plan to theme your app, you can choose to enable Core Pack components in the Components palette for use in your app's pages. See Opt In to JET Core Pack Components.

n/a
Business rules Business rules, which control the logic that determines what's displayed on the page at runtime, are now available for all extensions as well as visual applications. See Use Business Rules With Your Rule Sets. n/a
Enhanced variable and type creation We've optimized the process of creating multiple variables and types, so each variable or type is generated with a default name. You'd then use the Properties pane to update the name and other properties as needed. See Create Variables and Create Types.

With this update, the ability to create a custom type that defines a list of enumeration values is deprecated. Instead you can create a variable, then use the Subtype option in the variable's Design Time tab to define your enumerated list. See Create Variables.

n/a
Enhancements for JavaScript action chains

  • Actions within custom code

    You can now drop an action between single line and block statements in custom code, functionality that can improve productivity. Additionally, you can also take advantage of code completion in a Code action's Properties pane. See Add a Code Action.

  • Shorthand syntax for variables, constants, functions in current scope

    When you create a new JavaScript action chain or add actions to an existing chain, the underlying code now uses shorthand syntax, by default, to retrieve the value of variables, constants, and functions defined in the current scope. So for a page, where previously the syntax was $page.variables.myvar or $page.functions.myfunc, you'll now see $variables.myvar or $functions.myfunc instead in your action chain.

  • Duplicate option in JS action chains

    You can now duplicate an action, or a code block within an If, Switch, or Run in Parallel action. See Create Action Chains in Design Mode as well as Add an If Action, Add a Switch Action, and Add a Run In Parallel Action.

Note:

The option to toggle between JSON and JavaScript action chains in the Action Chains tab is no longer available. This change does not impact existing JSON action chains, which you can continue to edit—but all new action chains default to JavaScript. Further, you can no longer create new tests for JSON action chains, though existing tests will continue to run.
n/a
New dirtyDataStatus property in vbBeforeExit payload If you track changes in a variable's state to detect unsaved changes, you can now use the vbBeforeExit event listener's dirtyDataStatus payload (instead of the Get Dirty Data Status action) to check whether navigating away from a page will result in the tracked variable losing its data. See Add a Get Dirty Data Status Action. n/a
Dependent fragment property for display When curating fragment properties for display in the Properties pane, you can now use an item's Dependent On field in the Design Time tab to specify other items that this item depends on for its data. This way, when the fragment is used on a page or container, the dependent item won't show in the Properties pane until the other items have their value. See Section Fragment Properties for Display in the Properties Pane. n/a
Upgrade support for imported resources Resources that are using an older set of runtime dependencies when your app is imported can now be made compatible with the app's current runtime version. See Upgrade Imported Resources. n/a
Option to select existing field for M:1 and 1:1 business object relationships A new and improved editor is now available when you create many-to-one and one-to-one relationships between business objects. Besides other improvements, the editor gives you the option of creating a new field as the referenced key (default), or selecting an existing field of the correct type. See Create a Many-To-One or One-To-One Relationship.

Many-to-many relationships continue to use the existing editor, now without the ability to change cardinality. A new + Many to Many Relationship option is also added to a business object diagram's context menu.

n/a
Usability improvements

  • Application Name field renamed

    The Application ID specified when you create or duplicate an application is now Application Name. Also, what used to be Application Name is now Application Display Name. With this change, the app's display name, name, and ID are displayed on the Settings editor, so you can pick the correct value when building REST URLs for cURL commands. See Create a New Visual Application, Create a Copy of an Application, and Manage Visual Application Settings.

  • New Select Variable icon in the Properties pane

    The Select Variable icon in the Properties pane has been changed to better represent the variable picker. You'd now click Select Variable (instead of Select variable iconpreviously) to select a variable.

  • Listener shortcut on the Events editor

    You can now use a shortcut to create a listener when you're working with custom events in the Events editor, instead of switching to the Events Listener editor. Simply select the new Create Event Listener option in an event's right-click menu to create a new event listener in the same scope as the event. See Create Event Listeners for Events.
