SurveyJS v1.9.96
Released: July 4, 2023
SurveyJS v1.9.96 includes changes in the VisualizationPanel and VisualizationManager APIs, user-friendly dataFormat property values in the Signature Pad question type, and several bug fixes.
Dashboard: VisualizationPanel and VisualizationManager API Update
SurveyJS Dashboard v1.9.96 introduces the following changes to the VisualizationPanel and VisualizationManager APIs. These changes help disambiguate the APIs and make the member names more congruent with the rest of the API.
VisualizationPanel
| Old API member name | New API member name |
|---|---|
data |
surveyData |
getData() |
getCalculatedValues() |
onVisibleElementsChanged |
onElementShown / onElementHidden / onElementMoved |
VisualizationManager
| Old method name | New method name |
|---|---|
getAlternativesVisualizer() |
getAltVisualizerSelector() |
registerAlternativesVisualizer() |
registerAltVisualizerSelector() |
unregisterVisualizerForAll(constructor) |
unregisterVisualizer(undefined, constructor) |
getAlternativesVisualizer() and registerAlternativesVisualizer() are deleted from the API. The other previous property names will continue to work until further notice. However, we urge you to migrate your code to the new names to make sure that future updates won't break it.
Signature Pad: User-friendly dataFormat property values
The dataFormat property of the QuestionSignaturePadModel class specifies the format in which to store a signature image. Previously, this property accepted MIME types or an empty string. To make the property values more intuitive, we replaced them with user-friendly format names. MIME types are still supported for backward compatibility.
| Previous value | New value |
|---|---|
"" |
"png" |
"image/jpeg" |
"jpeg" |
"image/svg+xml" |
"svg" |
