Bug Fixes and Misc​

  • Upgraded the underlying version of DuckDB used in Rill to v0.10.2.
  • Fixed issue where the text at the end of the timeseries chart when hovering could be cut off when using the comparison feature.
  • Fixed issue where the chart labels could occasionally be cut off in the time dimension detail.
  • Fixed issue where Druid-backed dashboards would not always properly display values in the time dimension detail view if the measure contained infinity or NaN results (usually because of a divide by zero).
  • Added further hardening and polish to the pivot table UX.
  • Added further hardening and polish to the editor along with other components in the new File Explorer UI.
  • Added support for a new rill uninstall CLI command.
  • Added support for specifying a --version flag in the rill upgrade CLI command.
  • Added more consistency to the rill env command.
  • Fixed inconsistency where tooltips would sometimes show undefined when the underlying value has no data.
  • Fixed issue where non-string dimension values could cause the stacked area chart in the time dimension detail view to freeze.
  • Fixed issue where the preview in Rill Developer would not always properly reflect new columns that are added to a model and/or include extra white spaces when removing a column.
  • Added an alert icon to the directory and the file in the new File Explorer to indicate where there is an error.
  • Improved hardening so that lines are more consistently highlighted when comparison mode is enabled.
  • Simplified the alert criteria options to keep the list more concise.
  • Added support for the date_add, date_sub, and now time functions in metrics SQL.

  • Fixed issue where generating the dashboard YAML with AI could sometimes result in a complex column name being used for the measure expression and lead to an error.
  • Improved the alerting preview behavior so that opening the dashboard after receiving an alert notification will preserve the filters applied to the dashboard.
  • Hardened how "no data" is displayed where null or undefined values will now be shown as - in any table view.
  • Cleaned up frontend components that are no longer being used.
