Displayr

(This is a nice part of working in PowerPoint). Often, I find myself having to access the same setting of a series of similar objects. So let's suppose I've modified a setting in the Appearance menu of a table/visualization and I want to do the same in another table/visualization. The problem is that when I navigate from the first to the second object, Displayr defaults to showing the first tab of the object inspector. Instead, it would be nice if the object inspector opened to the same state it was in when I navigated away from the first object. This will be helpful for users who need to manipulate a series of objects.

Some dashboards take a very long time to load - it may help if not everything is calculated at once

I often work with large files containing hundreds of variables. It's difficult to tell which variables are created vs. part of the underlying data file. I know that there's a color difference (black vs. grey), but this isn't easy to see, and the variables are all mixed up together. Please add a filter drop-down to the top of the Data Sources pane to allow the view to only show the type of variables selected in the filter. Examples of things to filter for: Variables created in Displayr vs. source data file. Variables that are completely unused in any context. Variables that have "Usable as a filter" checked. Variables that have "Usable as a weight" checked. etc.

This has come up multiple times (also asked in Slack channels) German users, in particular, have expressed an interest in being able to change the decimal seperator sign. Add an option to swap between a comma and a dot.

With a large number of rules and updates to the folder names, it would be helpful to add a Search option to the Rules menu. Similarly to what is done in the Data Sources > + menu. When typing in 'search,' the results would appear, and a user would be able to select the Rule from the results directly without having to go to the actual folder and select the Rule. Once you know what Rule you want to apply a user can quickly search for it and apply it - or select it from Recently used

The user wants to be able to set a font size for text boxes that is larger than our limit of 72.

In a recent change, the dialog that allows users to select variables for inclusion in a QScript when it runs (e.g., "Insert a table > Report > Crosstabs") makes it difficult to select "sections" of variables or lots of variables at the same time. Consider a document with thousands of variables, and you want to create crosstabs of a subset - you would have to select each of them individually (or select all, and then deselect those you don't want), whereas before you could click one, hold down shift, and then select the last one in a section of variables, and/or hold down ctrl to add more. The dialog should allow both forms of selection, i.e., check-boxes and multi-select using shift/ctrl.

It's possible to rename multiple variables or variable sets in Displayr by pasting a list of labels. It should be possible to do the same in the report tree.

Make it possible to reset page numbers - for sections, for instance.

I would like the capability to dynamically change the name of a slide based on the data within it, so I'd like to be able to tie the slide name to an R box that updates the name when the data updates. Right now it can only be tied to a text box on the slide.
