<p class="MsoNormal">HI, all –<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Me again. A source of absolute delight among our ASpace user training group was the Rapid Data Entry mode. They loved the spreadsheet-like view and functionalities.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, we found that RDE was particularly prone to slow response to user inputs – users had trouble getting the system to respond to resizing column widths, saving rows, and using the tool that fills a column with a value or sequence.
Like I mentioned in my previous email, any advice for improving performance would be welcome.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We also have a feature request – we agreed that it would be truly, truly rad if we could see the spreadsheet-like RDE screen for data that has already been entered. So often, a data clean-up task will call for changing a data element across
sibling components – being able to see those components at the same time would be hugely helpful.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks again, and have a great weekend, everyone.<o:p></o:p></p>
