ANALYTICS
Velocity5.0

Data analysis and visualization platform for survey data, dashboards, and automated reporting.

Displayr exports reports to Google Slides as editable charts and tables.

◆Current state
On 9 November Displayr added export to Google Slides: supported charts, tables, text and shapes become native Google objects, the rest export as images, and a Google Sheet with the underlying data is saved alongside. A week earlier custom visualizations moved to their own domain so videos, maps and saved settings work. September brought Rules through Chat and API document duplication.
◆Where it's heading
Recent releases cut the steps between analysis and the deliverable: Chat applies rules, the API copies documents, and now reports land in Slides without a manual rebuild. The pattern is finishing the survey-to-presentation path inside Displayr.
◆Prediction
Expect export refinements, such as more native chart types or incremental re-export that keeps edits, since re-exporting currently overwrites changes made in Slides.

    Google Slides Export

    Google Slides export turns supported charts and tables into native, editable Google objects and saves the data in a Sheet. It extends the PowerPoint-style hand-off to Google Workspace teams, though a re-export replaces any edits made in Slides.

    Custom Visualization Security Improvements

    Custom visualizations now load from a dedicated domain, which fixes embedded video, map tiles and saved browser settings without loosening security. It is a quiet infrastructure release after September's Chat-driven Rules, though users will notice the difference. Locked-down networks need to allowlist the new address.

    Rules and Custom Rules via Chat

    Chat can now apply Displayr's existing rules and create custom ones, including rules that cover every table in a document. It moves the assistant from explaining and arranging toward changing how tables appear and what data they show.

    Duplicate a Document Using the API

    Documents can now be duplicated through the API. A small addition that matters to teams generating repeat reports from a master document.

    Shortcut to select inputs

    Hovering over an input control now offers an arrow that selects its input. A small navigation shortcut in the same vein as the back and forward buttons.

    Use the Same Control Across Multiple Pages and Page Masters

    Controls can now be shared and kept in sync across multiple pages and page masters via a Main control field, resolving a long-standing gap where identical filters on different masters drifted apart. A structural fix to document authoring rather than a cosmetic one.
