Breaking Changes

Header rendering in Webix DataTable

Starting from Webix 8.0 Datatable header does not include an HTML table for performance reasons. Moreover, it fixes the bug with a gap between table and header while zooming in Chrome. Hence, styling header cells and creating custom header content elements alters a bit.

New Default Palette for Colorboard

Default palette used in Colorboard has been updated so now it has a refreshed material look and new colors to work with.
