See what’s new and how to get started. order: 0 --- ## AddMaple V3 Welcome to AddMaple V3 — launched September 29, 2025. This release brings faster analysis, richer charts, deeper statistics, and a big change to how you manage your data: you can now fully control cleaning and preparation. ### Highlights - **You control prep**: Combine/separate columns, group/ungroup, edit types and titles, tidy legends, and use Clean with AI. - **New charts**: Box plots, mean dot plots, improved dot (bubble) charts with Fixed vs Auto scale, plus pie/donut/rose and geographic maps. - **New stats**: Expanded engine with Chi‑Square, T‑Test, ANOVA, Kruskal‑Wallis, correlations, regression, significance shading, key drivers, and NPS. - **Faster by default**: Instant summaries for big files, SAV/SPSS support, and responsive UI. - **Dashboards & Insights**: Streamlined Story Dashboards, publish/share with password, explorable data, and better collection-to-dashboard flows. --- ## Data prep you control You can now fix what used to be automatic-only. Prepare data precisely the way you need. - **Manage Columns**: rename, change types, hide/unhide, review merges/groups: see [Manage columns](../preparation/manage-columns). - **Combine columns**: merge single/multi-select exports back into one variable; confirm positive/negative values where needed: see [Combine columns](../preparation/combining-columns). - **Separate columns**: undo automatic or manual combines when you want originals back: see [Combine columns](../preparation/combining-columns.md#separating-columns). - **Group / Ungroup**: organize Likert/matrix questions as logical sets; edit group and item display names: see [Group columns](../preparation/group) and [Grouping from charts](../pivot-chart-and-table/grouping-columns). - **Legend control**: rename, reorder, hide/show, merge categories, assign colors, toggle Ordered vs Independent: see [Legend](../legend/legend) and [Ordered vs Independent](../legend/ordered-vs-independent). - **Clean with AI**: auto‑standardize labels, order scales, optionally merge near‑duplicates with guardrails: see [Clean with AI](../legend/clean-with-ai). - **Custom bins**: fixed numeric/date ranges with live previews: see [Number binning](../preparation/number-binning) and [Date binning](../preparation/date-binning). - **Weighting**: apply a weight column; charts, tables, and tests use weighted bases: see [Weighting](../preparation/weighting). --- ## Charts - **Dot charts (bubble)** with scale control: choose **0–100** (fixed) or **Auto Scale**; ideal for percentage comparisons and grouped pivots: see [Dot charts](../charts/bubble-dot-plots). - **Box plots & Mean dot plots** for numeric distributions and group comparisons: see [Box plots and mean dot plots](../charts/boxplots-mean-dot-plots). - **Additional charts** for single‑column exploration: pie, donut, rose; automatic **geographic maps** when location data is detected: see [Additional charts](../charts/additional-charts). - **Likert charts**: group related opinion scales, align on neutral or left, show numbers/average: see [Grouped Likert](../data-types/grouped-likert) and [Opinion scale columns](../data-types/likert-single).
