After months of refinement and invaluable feedback from our beta users and clients, we are excited to announce the official release of TFL Designer Community Version 1.0.0. 

We are very pleased to highlight that TFL Designer is the first solution to integrate the CDISC Analysis Results Standard (ARS) which all users can access in our free community solution. 

The journey to TFL Designer Community Version 1.0.0 has been a collaborative effort, and we couldn't have reached this milestone without the support and insights from our dedicated community. This release introduces a range of new features and enhancements that will significantly improve your TFL design and reporting capabilities. 

Selected New Features and Upgrades:

1. New Automation Capabilities: Users can now read and write to ADaM define.xml files, import external ADaM metadata from Excel, create multiple statistic sets, add straddles through study configuration, push updates across all or selected shells, and set global titles/footnotes for tables, figures, and listings, among many other improvements.

Easy Navigation and auto-generated Table of Contents

2. Expanded TFL Library: We now offer over 50 Safety and Efficacy TFL templates, including those for Oncology, along with additional displays and metadata following FDA and JPMA guidelines.

3. Community Sourcing: Users can publish their templates and metadata to a shared Community library, embracing community sourcing and reducing duplication within the industry.

6. Figures and Listings: Users can now create figures and listings shells. We have integrated open-source Python package Plotly for figure mock-up generation. Check out our library of Figures and Listings and see how you can use these capabilities for your studies.
