Build 292 - Updated Filter  

The Filter tab in the Request Editor now supports dynamic filter controls. Try building a filter on Cars Make or Cars Date of Sale to see how it works.
 
There's still something I'm looking at in there with relation to tracking data items and resizing. Sometimes the currently highlighted filter duplicates itself in the filter below it but I'm chasing it so don't tell me about it just yet.
 
Both the Refresh and the full Install have been updated so check them out.
 
Finally, as we get closer to release, we're limiting the new features being added in. Why? Because I want to ship this thing and we want to put more work on these.

For example, I'd love to re-design the Relationship Editor to work more like the Relationship Finder but it's so easy to get caught up on redesign that you lose scope of what's really important - shipping!
 
The changes will be focused on updating utilities under the Administrator menu that need a lot more work but here are the key new features in Foxfire! 8.0:
 
a) Distribution Builder
b) FFCONFIG Builder (although expect some re-design in 8.1)
c) Relationship Finder
d) Live Design / Request Editor
e) New Import/Export/Batch Builder process
