New Features
| Summary | Details |
|---|
| UI - Welcome Page - Imaging Advisor | Imaging Advisor (available in the Welcome page) provides information about the status of your application with regard to a migration to a cloud provider such as AWS (Amazon Web Services), Microsoft Azure and GCP (Google Cloud Platform), e.g. the level of "cloud readiness" of your application (note: limited to applications containing Mainframe code). See https://doc.castsoftware.com/display/IMAGING/User+Guide+-+GUI+-+Welcome+Page+-+Imaging+Advisor. |
| UI - Config Center - Manage Application Level-5 nodes | A new feature called "Config Center" has been added (available only to users with the role admin/ architect) which provides a means to hide nodes available in level 5. For example, you can hide the nodes that you are not interested in, or isolated nodes which do not provide any value. In the Config Center, tenants and associated applications are available for selection - and then the corresponding level-5 nodes of the selected application are listed and can be shown/hidden individually or in group/s. After performing the action (hide) the nodes will not be visible in the view for all the users and the same reflects in levels 1 to 4. See: https://doc.castsoftware.com/display/IMAGING/Config+Center. |
| UI - Legend panel - Insights tab | A new tab called "Insights" has been added to the Legends panel allowing users to view an object's critical violations, vulnerabilities, flaws, etc. By selecting a specific type of flaw/vulnerability, the objects in the view that have the same type of flaw/vulnerability are highlighted. Selecting the highlighted objects will display the details about the specific flaw/vulnerability in the object. To view the insights data specific pre-requisites exist, for details refer the following document: https://doc.castsoftware.com/display/IMAGING/User+Guide+-+GUI+-+Legend+panel#UserGuideGUILegendpanel-Insights. |
| UI - Investigate menu - Tabular view | In Investigate view > Graph Options, users can now switch to a tabular view to show the contents of the current view in table format. The table will display the following information: object name, type, children count and external type. See https://doc.castsoftware.com/display/IMAGING/User+Guide+-+GUI+-+Investigate+panel#UserGuideGUIInvestigatepanel-layoutLayoutoptions. |
| UI - Display of the source code in a pop-up window - New icon | A new icon is added in source code viewer tab to allow users to view source code in a new pop-up window. See https://doc.castsoftware.com/display/IMAGING/User+Guide+-+Viewing+source+code |
| UI - Admin page - Sourcecode datasource | Users (Admin/Super admin) are now allowed to add a new datasource, and also view and edit them from the admin page. The option is found in admin page "Applications tile". See https://doc.castsoftware.com/display/IMAGING/Admin+Center+-+Configuring+data+source |
| UI - Welcome Page - Third Party Components upgrade | Third party components upgrade tile, now available in Welcome page, helps you modernize your application based on Highlight to MRI. It gives users an insights on third party external libraries along with other details. It further allows user to investigate the associated internal objects with the packages. See https://doc.castsoftware.com/display/IMAGING/User+Guide+-+GUI+-+Welcome+Page+-+Modernizing+Applications. |

Feature Improvements

| UI - Maintain zoom level state | The zoom level set by users in the view is now maintained and reflected in the "vignette" as well as the main view on drilling down and closing the objects/sub-objects view.

In addition a new option called Highlight Caller has been implemented and added in the contextual menu with the other two options. These three options are enabled on all scopes and levels in Imaging. |
| UI - Icon/badge for Annotations | An icon/badge is now displayed on objects or nodes to indicate that the items has an associated annotation. |
