Released: April 19, 2023

SurveyJS v1.9.84 introduces a new tab view to Dynamic Panel and a capability to change the input type from the design surface in Survey Creator, removes support for the "datetime" input type, and includes several bug fixes.

The new release introduces tab view to Dynamic Panel. In this view, each panel is displayed under a tab. Users can click tabs to quickly switch between panels.

To enable the tab view, set the renderMode property to "tab". Use the templateTabTitle property to specify a template for tab titles. If you do not set this property, tabs display default titles: Panel 1, Panel 2, and so on.

const surveyJson = {
  elements: [{
    type: "paneldynamic",
    name: "panel",
    templateElements: [
      { type: "text", name: "q1" },
      { type: "text", name: "q2" }
    ],
    panelCount: 2,
    renderMode: "tab",
    templateTabTitle: "#{panelIndex}: {panel.q1}"
  }]
};

Survey Creator v1.9.84 adds a new adorner to Single-Line Input questions. This adorner allows users to select a desired input type: Email, Date, Number, and so on.

If you want to hide this adorner, disable the options.allowChangeInputType parameter within the onElementAllowOperations event handler:

creator.onElementAllowOperations.add(function (_, options) {
  options.allowChangeInputType = false;
});

All major browsers have removed support for <input type="datetime">. Following this decision, SurveyJS also removes support for the "datetime" value of the inputType property in QuestionTextModel. Since SurveyJS v1.9.84, "datetime" falls back to "datetime-local".
