New Belize Theme (SAP Fiori 2.0 Design)
New Belize Theme (SAP Fiori 2.0 Design)
The new Belize theme (sap_belize) has been introduced and replaces Blue Crystal (sap_bluecrystal) as the default theme. Blue Crystal is only supported until version 1.38. Note that Blue Crystal will remain supported for at least two more years in the 1.38 release branch, which is a long-term maintenance branch.
Caution:
The Belize theme does not support deprecated libraries such as sap.ui.commons, or sap.ui.ux3 (see Deprecated Themes and Libraries).
Custom themes based on sap_bluecrystal are no longer supported with 1.40 or higher. Furthermore, custom themes cannot be converted to Belize automatically, you will have to adapt them manually.
Belize does not support the same set of theme parameters as Blue Crystal. If you use custom themes or custom controls, check whether all parameters you use are still supported.
Note:
Sorry! Many of the examples, tutorials, and screenshots in this documentation still use Blue Crystal (sap_bluecrystal). Since there are so many, we simply could not manage to update those. Please keep in mind that you should use Belize (sap_belize) instead.

Older jQuery Versions Removed
Older jQuery Versions Removed
As of this version, OpenUI5 only contains one version of jQuery (the current version is 2.2.3). This standard version is always used when no other jQuery version is included in the bootstrap of an app. If you need a specific jQuery version for your app, add and load it explicitly as described in noJQuery Variant for Bootstrapping. Check the console for the related warning message if you are unsure which version you are using.

Feature
XML View Cache
XML View Cache
You can use a caching mechanism to speed up processing times of XML views that make heavy use of the preprocessor feature. To make sure that the cache always contains the latest view data, invalidate the cache whenever the data that is needed for preprocessing changes. When the cache is invalidated, all resources are processed again and the cache gets filled with new data. For more information, see XML View Cache.
The second version of the OpenUI5 OData V4 model introduces the following features:
Server-side sorting and filtering integrated in the OpenUI5 programming model
Reset changes functionality for batch groups
List bindings and context bindings with relative paths can read their own data
Context objects as an API
Support for contained entities
Restriction:
Due to the limited feature scope of this version of the OpenUI5 OData V4 model, check that all required features are in place before developing applications. Double check the detailed documentation of the features, as certain parts of a feature may be missing although you might expect these parts as given. While we aimed at being compatible with existing controls, some controls might not work due to small incompatibilities compared to sap.ui.model.odata.(v2.)ODataModel, or due to missing features in the model (like tree binding). The interface for applications has been changed for easier and more efficient use of the model. For a summary of these changes, see Changes Compared to OData V2 Model.
The GenericTile control can be implemented as slide tile. The animated content of the slide tile now includes a navigation option to pause the slide show or to navigate forward or backward to the slide. For more information, see the API Reference, and the Sample.
