Introducing Page Status within Encode Next-Gen Proofing - Collaboration is an important part of today's business landscape, particularly during the review and approval stages.

Improvements
Retail Improvements - Following feedback from our customers we have introduced a number of usability improvements to Encode Briefing which includes:
Repositioning of the select button within Find Page Element screen to avoid horizontal scrolling
Select and add multiple page elements in one action
Select the logo image to select/un-select, in addition to the checkbox, to indicate usage on Briefing
Allow for configurators to define that sub-products are included as default in DTP export
Improved field focus when clicking edit on a field in Pages
Load time of Bulk Edit - Performance improvements have been introduced to bulk editing of records which improves the validating and rendering of dropdowns by up to 50%
Auto-Expand Filters - A new module option will allow greater control for configurators to define whether the filters should be auto-expanded by default or collapsed. User preference as to whether the filters were expanded or collapsed will be remembered. Read more about this functionality in our configuration guide
Print Automated Content - Quick and easy access to print automated artwork/signage from Encode AdBuilder with the addition of a new 'Print' button to launch the browser print dialogue. Read more about this functionality in our configuration guide

Lightbox Improvements - A lightbox is a time-saving tool for situations when you need to present a larger document preview, and was previously used for all views except dashboard widgets. The dashboard has now been extended to allow for access to a lightbox and such preview content in more detail. To further improve the usability of the lightbox we have extended functionality to allow for easier access to download the original file or launch Encode Next-Gen Proofing for review and approval.
Remove Blank Default Dashboard - An upgrade script to clean-up and safely remove blank default Dashboards where it had previously been automatically assigned to users. In addition, any dashboards with unconfigured widgets will also be removed.
Extension to Action Response Mapping - Additional support to map Integer, Decimal and Date fields within an action response
Support for fix headers in configuration screens - Often find it difficult or time-consuming to configure access right and field usage? With large module configuration, we appreciate that it's not easy for out citizen developers to apply access right and field usage correctly, and have taken appropriate steps to finally fix field column and headers.
