V0.2-beta.1.2

New Version fixes and enhancements

Fixes

Navigation: fixed issues with opening side navigation screens
IntelliSense: Fixed IntelliSense code generation issue with complex steps

Enhancements

Metadata

1. In complex steps like Navigate records, metadata options now are generated and the user doesn't have to search for unique identifiers of metadata components
   

2. Metadata dependency filter: in steps that have multiple metadata options to configure, if there is a dependency between two metadata (ex: table and related form) now the dependent metadata option is automatically filtered to give a better user experience for the maker.
   

V0.2-beta.1.1

New Version fixes and enhancements

Fixes

1. Un-minified Code for IntelliSense: Resolved the issue where generated code, improving compatibility with IntelliSense.
2. Set Value Step: Fixed the functionality of the "Set Value" step, ensuring it works as expected in flows.

Enhancements

1. Auto-Generation of Unique Names in UX Flows: Implemented an automatic generation of unique names in UX flows, following a camel case format, making it faster to create and configure a flow.
   

2. Auto-Generated IDs for Steps in Flow Editor: Steps in the Flow Editor UI, such as the form notification step, now come with auto-generated editable IDs. These IDs are randomly generated using a mix of text and numbers for easier configuration.
   

3. Condition UI Improvements – Attribute Selection: Enhanced the Condition UI by adding the ability to choose an attribute directly from the clause of the filter, simplifying the condition setup process.
   

4. Condition UI Enhancements – Dynamic Values in Clauses: Further improved the Condition UI by enabling users to set dynamic values in the clause part, making the condition logic more flexible and powerful.
   

This revision improves readability, adds clarity to each feature, and gives a more professional tone while retaining the original intent and structure.

V0.2.0.1

We’re excited to announce a new release of PowerUX - MDA, packed with several enhancements and new features. Here's what's included:

New Features:

- Settings Page: Gain more control with the following options:

• Set Default Solution: Automatically add all generated scripts and related components (e.g., forms) to a specified solution.

• Add Related Component to Solution: Choose whether to include both the generated script and its related form in the default solution or only the script.

• Code Minification Mode: Improve performance by selecting whether generated scripts are minified. By default, scripts are unminified.

• View Code Setting: Control the visibility of generated scripts for makers, allowing you to decide if makers can view the script generated code.

  

We hope these updates enhance your experience with PowerUX - MDA!

Initial Beta Release

Initial release for PowerUX-MDA, functioning with the initial capabilities.

Import by order:

1. Base solution: Holds tables, plugins and custom APIs
2. App solution: Holds the UI components and the app to extend PowerApps from within a PowerApps app. (Different possibilities are planned to use rather than using PowerApps)
