Enhancements

Messengers

Account Administration
  • Clarified the steps for users who log in with the branded login option.
  • Improved the clarity of error messages related to logging in.
File Management & Organization
  • Renaming large numbers of assets will now be completed as a background task, improving efficiency.
  • The Quick Look interface has been enhanced to scale the content of larger previews for a more proper fit.
  • Clicking any icon in the Navigation Path will now navigate to the proper Project, Collection, or Library folder.
  • The “Delete” button in the Project Inspector has been renamed to “Delete Project” to prevent confusion with the “Delete” button for individual assets.
  • The search overlay has been refined for clarity when configuring an Advanced Search or finding assets within a Project or Collection.
  • Refined the appearance of text selection boxes when presenting fields with typeahead functionality.
  • Search overlays now preserve the order of search criteria fields when building a search.
  • The search configuration window now scrolls to ensure that newly added search criteria fields are visible.
  • The “Previous Search” tooltip no longer covers the DF Studio global search field, making it easier to enter text for searching.
  • Messaging has been clarified regarding DF Studio assets filtered from global search results due to permissions.
  • Enhanced the Viewing Preferences section of DF Studio settings to allow configuration of all of the same preferences that can be customized in the Viewing Preferences overlay.
  • The Info Inspector has been refined to present more relevant information about an asset based on its file type.
  • Removed the ability to browse previous versions of an asset’s DF Studio previews.
  • Ensured that any assets restored from Cold Storage for migration are returned to Cold Storage after the completion of the migration.

Bug Fixes

Messengers
  • Addressed an issue which could cause a watermarked Messenger to be sent without watermarked previews if re-sent after the Messenger had expired.
  • Resolved a bug which prevented using the “forward” feature in a Messenger unless all name fields were filled.
Uploads & Assignments
  • Resolved an issue which caused Setups to be generated automatically when uploading with the “No Setup” option specified.
Account Administration
  • Addressed a bug which prevented account admins from having assets to aspects of the account that would normally be available to them.
File Management & Organization
  • Corrected a bug which caused a “file” icon to appear on the preview of some image-based assets.
  • Fixed a problem which could cause the “copy” button alongside the “Share Link” button to copy the Share Link for the wrong asset under certain conditions.
  • Resolved an issue which could cause a new folder to be created before migrating assets and data when a folder matching the requested name was not found.
  • Fixed a bug which prevented video assets from playing when clicking the “View” button in 1-Up view.
  • Addressed an issue which could cause timeout errors when moving large numbers of assets between Setups. Larger moves will now be conducted as background tasks.
  • Resolved an issue where files without an extension were shown as having file type: NONE.
  • Improved the operation of the “Rename Assets” overlay so that space characters cannot accidentally be added to the start of filenames.
  • Fixed a bug which prevented the space bar shortcut from closing the Quick Look overlay when presenting a video preview.
  • Strengthened the reliability of copying metadata files during an asset migration.
  • Addressed an issue which prevented files from being migrated properly if previews were missing.
Security & Protection
  • Addressed an issue which may have allowed an API session to be shared between the DF Studio Upload API and the DF Studio Enterprise Asset API.
  • Included the name of the affected DF Studio account when sending SSO Auto-Provision notifications to account admins by email.
