Cleaner worksheet headers put useful context on demand

Orgvue product update

Published by Orgvue 

Worksheets often contain many properties, so small improvements to column headers can make a big difference to everyday analysis. We have simplified worksheet headers in Orgvue while making useful detail easier to find when you need it.

Data-type icons are now hidden from the default header view, reducing visual noise and leaving more room for the property names that guide your work.

You can also choose whether an aggregation label such as SUM or AVERAGE appears on a column. Show it when the calculation matters to the audience, or hide it when you want a cleaner presentation.
