We just released XLGL 3.3 with new material in the Getting Started guide and 3 new templates. There are other minor addition, but today I’ll focus on the new templates.
In the past couple of months, we have been getting more and more question on Excel PivotTables and Dashboards. Here are quick answers: Yes, XLGL works with PivotTables, and Yes, XLGL can produce amazing Dashboards.
Because dashboards are usually very personnalized, we never included any model/template for them. XLGL 3.3 changes that. We’ve included 2 new templates based on PivotTables and one complete company dashboard, featuring all sort of Excel tools that XLGL can work with: Shapes, Autofilters, Tables, PivotTables, Graphs, …
These templates can be found under the XLGL Ribbon/menu, and Templates. They were built specifically for Excel 2007, but can be used with previous version of Excel if you have the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack (Available here). They just look better in Excel 2007.
Here are some snapshot:
We won’t be adding any new templates until XLGL 4.0. If you have any special request, make sure to let us know.
