In case you missed it, we released Dialog Pages and Workflow Procedures last week.
Following up on our workflow improvements, we are currently developing Widgets Actions for the AIMMS WebUI.
These will allow you to take actions close to where your data resides (like a right-click menu).
A small preview is available in the screenshot below.

I'm willing to dive in, but the boss and clients are a bit more conservative than I am. I need to make sure I don't kill any official projects I'm working on.
My pet projects will all get this, though, for sure!

Just to be clear, this is not a formal release, this is a pre-release (experimental stage). The formal release will be made available through the regular release channel (see https://aimms.com/english/developers/downloads/download-aimms/release-notes).
We are offering these versions to get feedback in advance of the official release, and/or to allow you to prep for usage once the formal release it out (so you have a running start). This release has not gone trough the full scrutiny of a formal release and is not available for deployment on AIMMS PRO or AIMMS Cloud (only local desktop version).
PS: We expect to formally release this next week (if all goes well).

Very nice to see the widget menu in action!
Two questions from my side:
Two questions from my side:
- The Widget Action Menu already brings actions much closer to their context, I really like that. A while ago, we also talked about an Action Menu on table row or cell level. Is this still on the roadmap?
- Where can I find the list of allowed icons? Can I also use these icons in the Page Action Menu?
Thanks so much!
Official release with Widget Actions is now available:
https://aimms.com/english/developers/downloads/download-aimms/release-notes
Documentation includes info on icons; once we make Page Actions available via the model, we will also extend that set to all icon options Widget Actions has.
Regarding the item-based actions, we decided to first start with actions on Widget level and learn from experience by our customers before building the item-based ones (in-cell, on gantt-chart job etc.). Believe that most actions that you can do per item, could also be done via the widget actions due the its flexibility nature via the model making the other not needed.
Love to hear your feedback!
