New features
Back button!
We are always looking for ways to optimize the user experience in Blackbird, and a small but very convenient functionality is better handling of back navigation.

The back button will take you back to the state you were in on the overview, keeping your search terms and the page you were on.

Another convenience is that when you navigate to a sensor, from Sensors in a line, you can now use the back button to navigate back to the line you were on earlier.

Improvements
- Analog sensors now correctly keep their colors in the chart, when showing all sensors at once under Sensors 👩🎨
- We've made the navigation menu, header and footer translatable, so keep an eye out for them appearing in your language soon! 🌐
- Data multipliers on products and batches are now correctly applied to the data, even when there are multiple batches in the same view
Bug fixes
Build 2982
New features
Micro stops!
With the new configuration to set a stop register threshold, we are now able to separate your unregistered stops and your micro stops.

You can also see your micro stops in your OEE waterfall.

To configure what to consider micro stops, go into your sensor configuration, and setup the new Stop registration threshold setting!

Improvements
- Analytics has been greatly improved, the Pareto chart and table is now linked—try and click around! 📊
- Fixed a permission bug, where starting and stopping batches were not checked 🙅♀️
- The links in the Batches overview now link to the Live graph instead of Sensors, and a link to Analytics has been added 🔗
- Optimize how we update the URL and when we add entries to the browser back history 🔙
- Live-mode is now automatically enabled on Live and Register Stops, along with automatically starting when you choose any time period other than the calendar time picker
