Experimental Technical Updates

API

• This release introduces new UI capabilities called Data-Driven UI (DDUI)
  • These APIs introduce a new way to create modal forms with new capabilities and an all new look
  • New modal forms is the first step in our UI journey for creators, stay tuned for more features in future updates!
    • Known Issues:
      1. You need to wait a tick between programmatically closing a CustomForm/MessageBox and opening another.
      2. Showing a CustomForm/MessageBox while UI is already up “queues” the UI to show up instead of failing like the previous form APIs.
      3. CustomForms will only update after being shown via Observables, you cannot add a new button/dropdown/slider/etc while the form is shown.
• Reload command now closes all the Data Driven UI screens as part of the execution
• ScriptSetBannerDetailsFunction now includes base color and pattern data
• Fixed an issue with DebugBox where the position was being used as the bottom-left corner, instead of the centre
