Presto 8.0 – 8.2: Insights Integration and New Developer Productivity Features

August 2, 2019 – Presto 8.2 is now available to download. Versions 8.0 – 8.2 have introduced several productivity enhancements including new user behavior reports and heatmaps, a license key seat count report and a faster way to add and edit page customizations.

Presto is one of Fresche’s green screen UI modernization solutions. It automatically gives IBM i green screens and new RPG programs a modern, modern-friendly UI and endless opportunities to add new functionality.

Insights Integration
Using the Insights tool, Presto enables site administrators to visualize the user behavior in their IBM i applications. Insights provides an overview of the screens that users are accessing most often, allowing you to spend time customizing what is used most. This gives you the information you need to plan which parts of the application to modernize first, saving time and delivering better business value.

Seat Count Utility
Presto 8.2 ships with a Seat Count utility that allows administrators to know how many active Presto seats are currently in use. This information will be available from a Presto Administrator interface in the next release.

Edit / Detach Page Customizations
Save time when you make changes to custom HTML and JavaScript pages by accessing them from the Manage Pages interface instead of navigating to them.

Visual Skin Editor Enhancements
You can now easily edit window background and header colors within Presto’s Visual Skin Editor. Additionally, when you update and save preset skin colours, those changes will write to a new custom CSS file.

Other New Features:

  • Presto includes a new option to allow for a more modern, flat style of SmartCharts
  • Ability to control accessibility by developers to Presto objects
  • Presto now has global and page-level options to hide or display subfile action text
  • Users can now delete files directly from the spool file viewer within Presto screens.

Downloading Presto
Existing clients can download Presto 8.2 from the myFrescheSolutions portal.
