User Interface

CA Clarity PPM Login Page Can Be Rebranded

You can use the UI theme CSS to customize the appearance of the login page. For example, set a custom logo for an organization or set a message for all users to view when they log in. A sample system maintenance message appears as follows:

The system will be unavailable from Sun April 15 at 11:30 pm until Mon April 16 at 3:30 am.

The figure shows a mockup of a custom login screen.

Upgrade Action: None

Bubble Chart Improvement

Starting with Release 13.3, the bubbles in a bubble chart are translucent. This change allows smaller bubbles that appear behind larger bubbles to be viewed. Previously, smaller bubbles were not visible when hidden because the bubbles appeared as solid objects in the chart.

Upgrade Action: None

Drop-down List with More Than 20 Values

A drop-down list that exceeds 20 values for a field changes from a drop-down list to a browse lookup. The browse lookup is easier to use when the list of values is long.

Upgrade Action: None

Export Level for Excel and PowerPoint Has Changed

Before this release, an export to Excel or PowerPoint exported portlet information for all tabs for a selected page. With Release 13.3, only information that is on the selected tab is exported. Exporting the portlet information for a tab is the default behavior.

Chart Y-Axis Field Option Change

The Y-Axis unit of measure for the Major Unit Increment field is days when the Y-Axis for a chart represents date data.
