Version History 14.5.2

Unified JavaScript and Python engines are now used for Forms, Reports, and Valentina Database Stored Procedures. Previously, different JavaScript engines were used for Forms and Reports, which could lead to inconsistencies in how scripts were executed. With a unified engine, behavior is now consistent and reliable across all components.

A new plugin has been added to work with DuckDB databases. This is a file-based database, similar to Valentina DB and SQLite in this aspect.

=== New Features ===

[DuckDB]
* DuckDB support has been implemented in the following tools:
* Schema Editor
* Virtual Links
* SQL Editor
* Data Editor
* Diagram Editor
* Query Editor
* Dump creation and loading
* SQL file creation and loading
* XML/JSON creation
* CSV Export and Import
* Preferences panel
* Pre-connect and post-connect scripts for Bookmarks
* Project Editor
* Form Editor
* Report Editor

[Report Editor]
New features of the reporting engine:
* Table of contents generation
* Justified text alignment added for text controls
* Reorder report parts by dragging their tabs
* Rename parts by double-clicking on their names at the bottom
* Reports can be scripted with Python, in addition to JavaScript
* Standalone scripts stored in the project can be loaded using the project.loadModule method in expressions and scripts executed during report generation (previously, this was only possible for forms)

[Form Editor] Forms can now be scripted with Python, in addition to JavaScript.
[Valentina DB] Stored procedures can now use JavaScript or Python.

[Bookmarks] Pre-connect and post-connect scripts can now be implemented using Python or JavaScript. For example, a pre-connect script can retrieve a connection token, while a post-connect script can define parameters for an established connection

=== Improvements ===

[Report Editor]
* Ability to delete the first part of the report
* Clearer messages when a query fails during report generation from an SQL Server data source, helping users identify and resolve issues more effectively

[Query Log] Ability to export only queries from the Query Log tab
[SQL Editor][Data Editor] Use of schema-qualified table names when generating the INSERT command via context menu actions

=== Fixes ===

[Report Editor] Fixed issue with drawing EAN barcodes with an additional section
[MySQL] Faster export of large MySQL cursors to CSV
