PAX - Ability to save a view from PAW cubeviewer (+ Accessing the view content store directly from the viewer)

The PAW cubeviewer in PAX doesn’t allow us to save a view. We understand that, technically, PAX opens some sort of internal IE window and access PAW cubeviewer through PAW url api. As of 2.0.47, PAW url api allows for saving cubeviews to the content store. We need PAX to be updated with the latest version of the url api to benefit from that enhancement.

The PAW cubeview window is very ergonomic as opposed to the exploration view in the sense that you can easily drag & resize the window in a multiple screen set-up. The exploration view is stuck to an excel sheet which less convenient since excel interface in itself does take a lot a space.

Since we aren't able to save the view we're working on, we don't use PAW viewer and miss the benefits of its agility.

Furthermore the url api needs to have a drop-down list of all views within the cubeviewer for quick access. (just like architect's cubeviewer is able to). Going back to PAX from the cubeviewer to open a view is too time-consuming

You'll find attached a word document that further illustrate my request.

This is a major ommission from the cube viewer. Most times users will need to save views created when opening cubes from the Task Pane and not as Explorations. We are on PAfE 2.0.9.52 and this option to save in the viewer is still not available. Please could you add this functionality
