Here are the new features.
- Clicking a data point in a chart in a dashboard may now refresh other charts in the dashboard. This allows you, for example, to have a chart showing sales by year and another chart showing sales by month in a specific year. Clicking a year in the first chart changes the year used in the second one.
- Related to the previous feature, you can have a chart in a dashboard automatically cycle through its X-axis values as filter values for other reports in the dashboard.
- You can now specify that a chart included in a quick or cross-tab report should appear on its own page.
- Charts now show "(None)" instead of a blank series.

- The paging control in a chart now only appears if there's more than one page of data points.
- Column heading objects no longer appear on the last page of a report containing a chart at the bottom.
- Negative numbers formatted to display with parentheses are now right-justified on the last numeric position rather than on the closing parenthesis.
You can now specify vertical alignment for objects—top, middle, or bottom—in the Advanced Report Designer.
- Reporting4Act! is now better able to handle certain issues with the Act! data provider.
- The list of available Act! databases is now always shown in alphabetical order.
- Reporting4Act! now detects when certain sets of incompatible tables are added to a report, and displays a warning in that case.
- Handling for HTML and RTF formatted text in details fields was improved.
Microsoft Excel documents created by outputting a report using Excel Data-Only (Fast) output now support the desired font and size for each column and display fields formatted as % properly.
- Tooltips are now supported. You can specify the tooltip for a field in the Properties dialog and that tooltip appears when you hover the mouse over a value for that field in the Preview window, in a PDF file, and in a HTML file.
You can now enter comments for a folder when you create or edit it and the comments are shown on the Information page of the Reports Explorer.
- The default value for the Weeks starts on setting in the Options dialog is now the same as your Windows Regional Settings.
- You can now report on several fields in the reports table, including Comments, Created By, and Created At, in the usage reporting module.
Preview functionality in the Advanced Report Designer that was removed in version 7.2 was restored.
- The default for the Display grid lines setting is now turned on.
Cross-tab reports output to Excel Data-Only (Fast) now handle numeric row fields as numeric and don't include subtotals.
- You can now optionally sum a numeric field in the row of a cross-tab report.
