Text Tweak

We removed ‘Beta’ from the Batch Enter Metadata Form. Additionally, within the header ‘Knowledge Base’ was updated to ‘Knowledgebase’.

Goodbye, Flash. Hello, Vimeo

With the retirement of Adobe Flash Player, we have implemented the use of Vimeo in the instances where we previously offered Flash.

Resolved Issues

  • We resolved instances where broken thumbnails were displayed in public collections.
  • Access groups were sticky in certain edge cases. This has been rectified.
  • The default thumb icon preview was appearing much too large and has been reduced for consistency with regular previews.
  • Inactive documents were shown as available for selection in the Linked Documents modal. This has been corrected.
