Dear Flexmonster team,
I've faced with an issue, here are the details:
Precondition: One Flexmonster instance with something filtered out of it. Multiple Highcharts connected to it, with different filters passed to it in slice on creation.
Expected behavior: Highcharts will apply their own filters.
Actual behavior: All Highcharts apply main Flexmonster table filter.
Example: https://jsfiddle.net/7f4wauqk/
Additional case: if filter for main instance exists, but it allows all fields, then it works right - every Highchart uses its own filter.
I believe that shouldn't work so. If it should, could you advise how can I achieve behavior I want? If not - could you give ETA for a fix?
Thanks in advance.

Hello, Artem,
Thank you for reporting about the problem and for preparing the example.
The fix is going to be provided with a minor update ETA June 15.
We will notify you as soon as the version is available to download.
Also, our team would like to kindly notice that the hierarchy placed in report filters can not be chosen to be displayed on the grid. Therefore, we recommend placing the "Customer Satisfaction" hierarchy and it's filters in rows.
Do not hesitate to contact us in case additional assistance is needed.
Kind regards,
Illia

Hi Illia,
We were able to update version and check that fix not so long ago. And initial issue is fixed, but found two similar cases:
a) https://jsfiddle.net/Dongor7/1u2oexq8/
1. Click "Add pie"
2. Change "Customer Satisfaction" filter on table
3. Click "Add pie 2"
Both pies show data filtered by this new value of filter.
b) https://jsfiddle.net/Dongor7/1u2oexq8/25/
1. Click "Add pie"
2. Change "Customer Satisfaction" filter on table
Filter is immediately applied to pie chart too
This case differs from the first one by having an update function for pivot.highcharts.getData.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
Artem

Hi Illia,
Yes, new version does not have this problem, thanks for the fix.
One thing we noticed though is that in new version when we right-click some column and choose "Number Formatting" it will open popup without chosen column(dropdown will display Choose value), while previously column that was right-clicked was auto-filled there. Is this intended behavior or will it be fixed soon?
Best Regards,
Artem

Hi Illia,
We've found one more case where behavior is different from previous version.
Previously(in version 2.7.19) when some column used in calculated value is absent, then its value for formula was treated as 0. And on current version(2.8.13) it removes column with calculated value from table and shows a dialog "Wrong formula format. Please check.
The field with {column_name_here} uniqueName is not defined."
Is this an intended change? And if yes, is there any way to not show this dialog box(if we'll want to add some other warning instead of it)?
Best Regards,
Artem

Hello, Artem,
Thank you for writing to us.
Concerning the issue with number formatting pop-up, we want to confirm that such behavior is not expected. The fix is going to be provided with a minor release ETA Sep 21.
Our team will notify you as soon as the version with a fix is available to download.
As for calculated values, our team would like to explain that formulas validation was not changed since 2.9.17 minor version. The appearing alert can be removed using the validateFormulas property of the Options Object. In case its value is set to false, no alert will appear, and the absent field will be treated as zero.
Please let us know if it works for you.
Do not hesitate to contact us in case further questions arise.
Best regards,
Illia

Hi,
We haven't updated version of Flexmonster yet, since it's not a critical issue for us.
Thanks.
