Dieses Feature haben sich viele Planning-Analytics-User schon lange gewünscht. Ab PAW-Version 2.1.16 gibt es in Cubeviews endlich einen Button, mit dem ihr ganz einfach vor- und zurückspringen könnt. Heißt konkret: Wenn ihr eure View verändert, zum Beispiel Zeilen oder Spalten verschiebt, könnt ihr jederzeit wieder einen Schritt zurück oder nach vorne gehen. Dabei werden bis zu 20 Schritte gespeichert. Hier ziehe ich zum Beispiel die Länder in die Zeilen und die Versionen und Jahre in die Spalten.
Mit einem Klick springe ich einfach wieder zurück oder vor, je nachdem, was ich brauche. Kleine Änderung, aber im Alltag echt super hilfreich.

Many Planning Analytics users have wanted this feature for a long time. From PAW version 2.1.16, cube views include Undo and Redo buttons. If you change a view, for example by moving rows or columns, you can move backwards or forwards through up to 20 stored steps. Here I move countries to the rows and versions and years to the columns.
With one click, I can move backwards or forwards as required. It is a small change, but extremely useful in everyday work.
