Whats New at SharePoint 2013 and PerformancePoint Services 2013

Whats New with SharePoint 2013 and PerformancePoint Services 2013. The Architecture and general model has remained the same but they have made some good enhancements that I am going to Point out here.

Dashboard Designer -  Dashboard Designer is now an Ribbon button. Clicking on the Dashboard Designer Ribbon button launches the dashboard designer The appearance of the PerformancePoint ribbon tab is based on content type. So it appears in document libraries where the "Web Part Page" content type is present, and it appears in lists where any of the PerformancePoint content types have been added. This whole feature is great because now you can launch the designer without having to navigate to the old, BI Center landing page.

Integrated Themes - PerformancePoint 2013 Services now Inherit SharePoint 2013 Themes. The Dashboards will look now be prettier than ever before. The background Images from the themes actually bleed through the elements on your dashboard.

New BI Center -   The ppssample.aspx page that you may have used in SharePoint 2010 product (Site Contents --> Pages) has been changed to make the Componenets simpler.

Filter Enhancemnets (Cascading Filters) -  
You can now

•  show sub selections in tree filters by bolding each parent in the hierarchy.
