What’s new in Arc and Slice
Introducing the Arc Assistant
The Process Editor now includes an assistant! You can highlight any section of code and ask the Arc Assistant to explain it for you. This feature is also available through Slice by using a new function ArcAssistant.Data.The Arc assistant is powered by Open AI (ChatGPT), and as such, your selected code or data is sent to OpenAI servers.
Use CTRL+SPACE to select elements
New context-sensitive auto-complete rules provide a list of elements from the correct dimension in CellGet and DB formulae. This is very handy when you need to hard code an element:
New toolbars for cube viewer, subset and dimension editors
The Cube Viewer, Subset Editor and Dimension Editor toolbars have been redesigned. You can now switch between small or large buttons. On top of this, dimensions are now coloured to make it easier to find a dimension or hierarchy.
and much more…
A complete list of all enhancements and fixes can be found in the Arc & Slice v4.1 release notes: v4.1.0.md
