Improvements

• In a historian bridge, the chunk interval, compression and retention settings are now read-only once the data contract has a historian bridge or tables, because TimescaleDB keeps the values set when the tables were created. The Advanced tab says so and links to the Historian monitor, which shows the values in use. For a new data contract, it notes that these settings apply only once.
• Topic browser shows how long ago the newest value arrived, and says why new values aren't arriving, for example when the instance is offline
• Topic browser shows the chart of a number topic above the tabs, and lists each change of a text or boolean topic next to all of its stored values
• The topic browser has a new design. Each topic now opens with its name, where it comes from and its current value at the top, followed by the chart for numbers, and History, Details and SQL query in tabs below. While you scroll, the topic tree stays in view and a row at the top keeps the tag name and the current value visible
