Overview

This article provides a list of the issues fixed and new functionality added in version 26.3 of Simba Custom Analytics.

Version 26.3.0.1000

Behavior changes

TicketDetails
CMP-3230 The version of Chromium Embedded Framework used when exporting content to images and PDF has been updated, which may cause slight changes in rendering.
DUN-95915 When installing directly on Windows, Python functionality is now isolated for each application instance using a virtual environment installed in the venv subfolder of the installation. If you are installing and using custom packages in Python transforms, they will need to be installed into this virtual environment.
DUN-96280 Dundas BI is now Simba Custom Analytics, and users logging into the application will see this new name by default. Application deployment, content, APIs, and extensions continue to work like in previous versions. The favicon images as seen in browser tabs have been updated for new installations, but images in this folder ([BIWebsite]\wwwroot\Content\Images\favicon) remain unchanged when upgrading an existing installation as documented in case they were previously white-labeled. (If desired, you can download and replace favicon.svg in this folder and favicon.ico in wwwroot manually.)
DUN-96315 When installing directly on Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Ubuntu 20, and Debian 11 are no longer supported. You can deploy on Ubuntu 22, 24, or 26, or Debian 12 or 13, or use Docker or Kubernetes instead to deploy on your preferred operating system.
