POV Fixes
When playing a Storyboard a pop-up window will open with an option to fix the Point of View before using a Storyboard.

An example: a report has been added to a storyboard with the entity ‘Europe’ selected. However, ‘Use POV Entity by default’ has been selected, and the POV is set to Headquarters. When playing the storyboard, you will now not see it played with ‘Europe’, but with ‘Headquarters’. Everything else in the storyboard POV will be the same as how it was in the report when it was added to the storyboard. This enables you to not have to re-add every report whenever a new period/entity is added to the metadata.
You can also set the other storyboard POV setting to play under Play>Set POV and Play:
