    Build a "Global Data Canvas" view to look at multiple tables, and their interactions, on the same screen

    Currently the data canvas shows any transformations, row/column additions, and data functions applied to a single, foundation, table. For complicated dashboards that require data flow over multiple tables (and between IronPython and TERR scripts) ...

    Moveable Transformations in Data Canvas

    It would be more user friendly to be able to shift transformations up or down relatively without having to delete and recreate them.

    Can we hide the menu bar in web player?

    When a user opens a report, is it possible to hide the menu bar at the top of the screen? The user doesn't require it, it takes up screen real estate and often times users inquire about why various features have been enabled/disabled.

    Data function management UI consistency

    Which UI to go to in order to do different things with data functions? Not clear/obvious currently. Many frustrations with these UI's. How is it clear that "Run" also registers? And then this isn't where I go afterwards to edit the data function

    ability to adjust axis selector dialog size(with)

    we want to change the size(width) of axis selector dialog or the size(width) of the column list on the left in order to show the full column name when it's long.

    When combining columns, long column names can be difficult to read, so I would like to be able to change their width.

    There is a rule that requires column names to be long, so they may not be distinguishable just from the beginning of the name. Currently, even if the column name is long, the width cannot be changed and it is therefore unreadable.
