Honeycomb Chart for Agile App and Beyond
We have been using the Honeycomb powerpoint to drive visuals of use cases and road map discussions with clients. It would be an awesome continuation of the theme to have the ability to create a "Honeycomb" chart within the agile app to visualize the use cases and double click into them to run project status.

Preview the line item style in blueprint before selecting one
When building modules, I want to be able to preview the line item styles in the drop down menu (much like you can preview the font selections in Microsoft word et al) rather than having to click through them all to see which one is most appropriate

Do not show zero values in charts
Description: As a model builder I want to have the possibility of not displaying zero values in charts, so that the display is not impacted by the fact that there may not be any values (not that the real value is zero). It would still be great to keep the option of showing the zero values when desired, as in some cases it…

When creating a new Dashboard for the UX, on occasion you may want to duplicate views, but when you don't and you would like exclusively for UX, adjust in the UX then have available for classic, or you may generate a 'custom view' in the UX, aside from duplicating your work you have no way to retain those actions. Having…

Copy Dashboards - Same as Module
I would like the ability to copy a dashboard from the "Dashboards" area under Model Settings. This would provide more consistency to model builders. Right now, I have to open the dashboard and copy from the dashboard from the user dashboard menu, which isn't quite as intuitive.

Synchronize Selection shortcut
When we use the function "Synchronize Selection", we can't use the other function "Select Levels to show", and it can be frustrating for end user. It will be great to add a button near to "Search", "Filter" & "Maximize" in order to stop temporary the function "Synchronize Selection" and to be able to use "Select Levels to…

Model users are confused by line charts which stop along the x-axis. They need to be trained or instructed that trailing zeros in line charts are not displayed. Please update Line Charts to include trailing zeros.

Editable Chart Options
Allow users to open 'chart options'. Users have asked for the ability to save charts as images and the ability to show or hide values on the graphs. Users are currently taking screenshots that don't always look as good when expanded for presentation purposes.

Organized Dynamic Access Driver Selections
As a model builder, dynamic access drivers can be hard to find when implementing this feature. Anything formatted as a boolean will appear as a possible driver and the resulting list becomes tedious to search through in big models. My idea is to show potential drivers based on the current module on the top of the drop-down…

Display a warning to model builders when they begin editing a dashboard already being edited
Today I had been involved in some major rework of a dashboard when that little green button on the dashboard shows up telling me that my version of the dashboard is out of date because changes are pending. That meant I could no longer save the many dashboard edits I had made until I refreshed to the latest version. The…

Dynamic label display on charts
Ability to hover over a line on a chart and see which member of the hierarchy the data point is showing. Currently, we only see the data value on the line with the label on the sides. However, when handling a chart with a multitude of lines, it helps to be able to hover over the line for a quick display. Example, line…

Same space place for values of different formats
Currently in Anaplan different format values are located in different places of the cell. Thus, number format items are placed on the right, text and other - on the left. It makes the tables, containing lines of both types, hard for reading in case of wide columns. Benefit: more user-friendly design for tables with wide…

Ability to select only the first column/dimension of a module
In many modules and use cases, the row dimension is useful information. Hence the first column of a module contains a code/name that customer would like to use to search for in another selector/page. Currently, Anaplan behavior when you click on the row header, is to select the whole line. In order to manage this issue, we…

Suppress Saved Views in Contents Pane
We have modules that we reference frequently that would be convenient to have accessible in the Contents Pane. However, there is a relatively high number of saved views on the modules and to include them in the Contents Pane would mean taking up many lines in the Contents Pane. It would be helpful if there were an option…

Master views to have the same behavior as the Personal views
We always have this issue when in a dashboard is published a selector list and a table (module) that need to need to be synchronized. In the master view: When a user opens for the first time the master dashboard, the selector is on the default element ( first level 0 element from the list or total element of the list) and…

Changing number format for stakeholders
It would be useful to be able to change the format of numbers making it easier for senior stakeholders to see. if we have 56989 units of goods - we have to export data files into excel and reformat to display 57 as an output. It would be useful if Anaplan would be able to display 1,000s' in the same way.

Bandwidth control icon (good or bad connection signal)
There's already a Status.Anaplan.com site for advanced users. But it would be great end user to be aware of bad connection issue. Just like mobile phones show the bandwidth, Anaplan site could give the connection speed icon in the upper right corner.
