New for SAS Visual Analytics 7.5
- The user interface has been rewritten in HTML5. Previously, many SAS applications and SAS solutions used the Adobe Flash Player to provide interactive user interfaces. Adobe announced that it intends to end support for Flash technology and will cease to update and distribute the Flash Player at the end of 2020. Browser vendors will disable Flash by default in 2019. For more information about Adobe Flash end-of-life, see SAS Software and Its Use of the Adobe Flash Player.
- The SAS Visual Analytics Explorer (the explorer) and the SAS Visual Analytics Designer (the designer) interfaces have been combined into a single interface.
- There are new side panes. For example, the new Outline pane provides you with a convenient way to work with pages and objects in your report.
- The existing side panes have been updated. For example, you can right-click a data item in the Data pane to add it as either a report control or a page control.
New objects have been added. For example, the new key value object can be used to highlight numeric and categorical values in an infographic. - Existing objects have been improved. For example, the pop-up menus now enable you to move objects; sort, replace, or remove data items; and print or share an object.
- New features are available for geo maps. For example, geo maps support animation for all map types.
- There are enhanced parameters. For example, you can have parameters with multiple values, which enable you to use them in a list control.
- Accessibility has been enhanced. SAS Visual Analytics is now accessible via the keyboard. Some graphs have integration with SAS Graphics Accelerator.
