v0.1.1

New features

• Connection displaying has been greatly improved:
  • Improved design
    • The side panel now has a title and close button.
    • Connection card design has been improved.
    • Connections are not highlighted on the document body by default so no noise or visual stress is introduced in the text.
    • The side panel will always show all connections for the current document.
  • Improved navigation:
    • Hovering or selecting a connection card on the side panel will highlight the matching text in document body.
    • Connections are highlighted on the document body and side panel on mouse over the connection card or the text snippet. So even if its invisible, it will react to a mouse over event.
    • Clicking on the text snippet in the document body will scroll the side panel, focus and highlight the matching card.
    • Likewise, clicking on the connection card will scroll the document body, focus and highlight the text snippet.
  • Improved connection creation:
    • Added numbered steps to better guide users through the process.
    • Now users can effectively select the connection type on creation.

Small improvements

• Changed the behaviour of text selection in document viewer so it allows for text copying. Previously the copy function was blocked by the “connection creation” feaure.
• Now the sidebar will render in a smaller size for mobile devices so it won’t totally cover the background content, improving the user experience.
• Improved the message in the upload area so users have better understanding of the functionality.

Bug fixes

• Fixed a bug in “metadata > document types” where hitting save repeatedly on a newly created document type will lead to duplicate document types.
• Fixed a bug in “select type” when rendering metadata will toss a javascript error.
• Fixed a bug in “select type” where the current value wasn’t being displayed.
• Fixed an incorrect padding in the scroll bars in the document viewer that will display scroll bars in the middle of the content.
• Fixed a layout glitch where the sidebar was wrongly overlaying part of the content.

v0.1.0

Notable changes

• Full revamp of metadata > document type section:
• Now it will display a "Duplicated field" feedback error when trying to create fields with equal names within the same document type.
• When marking a property as "Use as filter", now it will display a visual map of properties from other document types with equal names and also marked as filters, allowing for better understanding on filter coincidence across different document types.
• "Use as library filter" relabeled to "Use as filter".
• "Required field" relabeled to "Required".
• "Save template" relabeled to "Save".
• Added several tooltips explaining filtering and filter coincidence.
• Now scrolling is independent for main view (search results, document view) and side panel (metadata and relation view) making navigation easier.

Small fixes

• Fixed a bug when adding a "select field" to a document type and leaving the default dictionary, actually it was being saved with no dictionary causing a cascade of errors.
• Now the "edit metadata" option in floating action button will only be visible if the user has permissions (is logged in).
• When stacking filters in the public library sidebar, feedback properly shows "Filters for [document type]" when selecting only a document type and "Common filters for [document type 1] and [document type 2]" when selecting more than one type.
• When closing the "Edit metadata" side panel, a confirm message about loosing changes will be displayed and if accepted, the form will be reset to its initial state an close. Previously it would close and keep the state of the form.
• Now the confirm deletion message for documents that failed to upload and the confirm deletion message for regular documents display different messages. Previous message was misleading.
• Fixed a bug that prevented saving document metadata when the document was large. The text of the document was wrongly being sent to the server overflowing the allowed payload.
