新造型经验:新公式editor goes straight into edit mode

In the new modelling experience, when expanding the formula bar to display the whole formula in the new formula pane at the bottom of the screen it goes straight into 'edit' mode. This means that if you then click on another line item it adds '+[Line Item Name] onto the formula without you meaning to do so.

Anaplan need to change this so that a model builder can expand the formula, see it in the new pan but not automatically make it editable - this is so that you can click through and review the full formulas without risk of changing them without knowing.

Right now, editing is directly enabled when a formula is opened in the New Model Experience. This makes it difficult to click through the (long) formulas of multiple line items within a module.

Hi,

I would like to support this request, as I was about post this feedback. The UX section of formula looks great, but the existing classic vertical pane and the Syntax we were getting around with A+ plugin was easy to manage long and complex formula.

Therefore, feedback suggestion is to have the pane vertical with syntax and also in the current design we are not able to view the formula in the lower pane without editing the formula. Which sometime is risk to view the formula in edit mode.

Quick example below to understand user experience between classic and UX with mock up if statement.

Classic (with A+ Plugin)

很好的主意。

The new formula bar that opens on the bottom opens automatically in edit mode.

通常,您只想阅读具有额外格式和空间的公式,但不要编辑它。这尤其有用,因为公式栏也将在部署模式下可用(目前无法打开,因此实际上不可能在部署的模型中读取大型公式,这使得新的UX不可用)。

Sorry, I was originally adding the idea to drag the bar up and down, but as I went to test it, I see it's already there now. So please disregard the second part of the title!

It is a big pain to use formula panel, I agree with@Asslam, this will work better and many people need it badly not all orgs allow to install A + chrome extension on system due to security.

谢谢

我很高兴地说,这个想法是在未来版本中交付的路线图上。

This would make troubleshooting formulas a lot easier.

+1为此,我几周前开始使用新的建模体验,因此本周停止了。一旦更新,将会改变

@ChrisM似乎交付的功能与我们中的一些人所要求的不同。

Hi@abhay.kanik,

Please could you elaborate on your comments?

From my understanding this idea was about preventing the new formula editor in the new modeling experience going straight into edit mode as per the title"新的建模经验:新公式编辑器直接进入编辑模式”, which is what we have delivered with the introduction of the Edit button.

We have also previously introduced the ability to relocate the formula editor to the side to improve the readability of long formulas.

您是指关于公式凹痕的评论吗?如果是这样,我鼓励人们对以下建议进行特定的思想投票:

谢谢,

Chris

只是我的两分钱,但这在实际构建模块时杀死了我的生产力。对于这里的迷你咆哮,道歉,但这很重要。

It's bad enough not having a hot key to automatically enter the formula mode where you can click on line items to insert references (if there is one, let me know!), but now I have to drag my mouse from the top left of the screen to the bottom right of the screen (27") every time I want to edit a formula in that manner. Not great for the carpal tunnel.

虽然我了解这在某些情况下如何有用,但对于生产力来说似乎很糟糕。What could be a great common ground is to implement a toggle switch in user settings somewhere that allows users to turn the feature on or off at their own preference.

Maybe we make use of the empty space in the "My Account" section to start implementing optional toggles to customize the Model Builder's user experience - put new features in there with default to the original state so users who want the feature can enable it, but other users are not impacted by its rollout.

Again, just my two cents, but please don't force the excessive, extra mouse movement requirements on me any longer!
