The timings for a sample set of results put STNext within 1% of variance with performance from STN Express.

Reporting

This release includes the ability to overwrite an existing custom report template. Previously when changes were made to a custom report template, the system was creating a new custom report template with a system default name.

Autosuggest

This release includes suggesting L-numbers in the autosuggest window. The L-numbers are suggested with a snippet of the query along with the number of answers. The max number of suggestions in the window remains at 10 suggestions.

For example, if there are more than 10 L numbers, the suggestion will include only the bottom 10.

If you enter a number after "l," the list automatically filters to display suggestions containing the number.

If there are no L-numbers matching the characters entered, the suggestions will include terms from the lexicon thesaurus.
