New features

The following has been added in this release of Studio:

  • Support for adding images in SVG format in Digital articles. Images in SVG format such as infographics, logos, data visualizations, and so on, can now be added as an image or made part of a slideshow in a Digital article.

To make this work, the SVG format needs to be added to the file type mapping in the server on which Studio is run.

'.svg' => array( 'image/svg+xml', 'Image'),

For more information, see Configuration steps for using SVG images in Digital articles in Studio.

Changes

The following changes have been made in this release of Studio:

  • Publication Overview: Opening files by double-clicking them in the Linked Files panel. The Linked Files panel in the Publication Overview shows all files that are related to a currently selected layout such as the Dossiers it is part of and images and articles that are placed on it.

When it is spotted that an article, image, or Dossier still needs work, these can now be quickly opened by double-clicking them in the Linked Files panel of the Publication Overview. The file is then opened in the current tab, in InCopy, or in its external editor, depending on the type of file and the way Studio is configured.

Holding Ctrl (Windows) or Cmd (macOS) while double-clicking the file will open articles in a new Web browser tab in the Print editor or directly in InCopy (depending on the configuration), while Dossiers and images are opened in a new Web browser tab.

For more information about the Linked Files panel, see Viewing to which Studio files a file is linked using Studio.

Changes

The following changes have been made in this release of Studio:

  • Layout fullscreen preview: changes to accessing objects placed on top of each other. For layouts containing objects that are (partly) placed on top of each other, the following improvements have been made to prevent the topmost object from blocking underlying objects (which would prevent users from accessing the action menu for that object or prevent users from placing an article in that frame):
  • Smaller objects are placed above larger objects so that they are not obscured. When hovering the mouse pointer over the object, it becomes active and the toolbar for performing actions on that object appears.
  • When objects are identical in size and placed on top of each other, the top-most object can be hidden by Alt+clicking it. Hidden objects can be shown again by left-clicking anywhere outside of the object, or by closing and opening the layout preview.

Example: Frames A, B, and C are identical in size and placed on top of each other. When Alt+clicking frame A, frame A is hidden and frame B is shown. When next Alt+clicking frame B, frame B is hidden and frame C is shown. When left-clicking outside of the frame, all frames are loaded again with frame A at the top.

  • The action menu is now shown inside the top left corner of the frame to better indicate to which frame the menu belongs.
  • When placing an article in a frame, the opacity of the frame does not change anymore to better indicate which frame is targeted.

Downloads

New features

The following has been added in this release of Studio:

  • Desktop app: Automatically downloading and installing updates. The Desktop application is used for setting up the communication between Studio and other applications and for controlling some of the features of the Desktop app itself. When a new version of the Desktop app is available, this newer version can now be automatically downloaded and installed.

This process is managed in the Updates window of the Desktop app:

The Updates window

It shows the following: 

  • The version number of the currently installed version.
  • The version number of the new version when that is available, else a message stating that the Desktop app is up-to-date.
  • An 'Update now' button which is available when the option 'Update automatically' is not selected and an update is available. In this configuration the process of downloading and installing the new version has to be manually started by clicking the 'Update now' button.
  • An 'Update automatically' option. When selected and a new version is available, the new version is automatically downloaded and installed when the Updates window is accessed.

The availability of the Updates window is controlled through the following setting in the Management Console of Studio:

Features > Desktop app > Enable automatic updates

By default, the option is enabled (meaning: the Updates window is available for users to update their Desktop app with). When disabled, the Updates window does not appear; the process of downloading and installing any available updates needs to be done manually outside of the Desktop app.

  • Desktop app: silent installation on Windows. The Desktop application can now also be installed silently on Windows by using the following command:

& '.\Studio Desktop App Setup 4.0.0.exe'/S

For more information, see Using the Desktop app of Studio.

Changes

The following changes have been made in this release of Studio:

  • The Desktop app has been renamed. The Desktop app has been renamed from the 'Content Station Desktop app' to the 'Studio Desktop app'. When upgrading a system on which the previous Content Station Desktop app is installed, remove that version.
  • Digital editor: Component Set properties with dataType 'data' and using a control with type 'select' are not converted to null anymore. In previous versions, when a property was defined with dataType: "data" and a control with type select was used, it was possible that the select UI would set the data value to a value that did not match the definition.

Example: Take the following definition:

{
    "name": "sample-select",
    "label": "Sample Select",
    "control": {
        "type": "select",
        "options": [
            {
                "caption": "Undefined select value"
            },
            {
                "caption": "String value",
                "value": "string_value"
            }
        ]
    }
}

When selecting the 'Undefined select value' option in the UI, the value would be converted to null in the article data. As a result the UI was not showing the correct selected value.

Now, the value is not converted to null anymore, but instead the value is deleted from the article data and the exact value as in the UI control definition is used. This behavior is now also consistent across the different data types (data, inlineStyles, and styles).

Changes

The following changes have been made in this release of Studio:

  • Print editor: showing hyperlink text. When viewing a Print article in Studio, any hyperlinks in the text are represented as icons and not as readable or editable text. As a result, the text of the hyperlink is hidden which impacts reading the full text and writing the correct text that comes before and after the link. To improve this, the text of the hyperlink can now be viewed in a tooltip by hovering the mouse pointer over the icon.

Viewing hyperlink text in a tooltip

  • Digital editor: copying, cutting, and pasting components using keyboard shortcuts. Components or the content of components can now be copied, cut, and pasted by using keyboard shortcuts:
  • Windows: Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X, and Ctrl+V
  • macOS: Cmd+C, Cmd+x, and Cmd+V

These shortcuts can also be used for copying and cutting components from another Digital article that is opened.

Text can be copied or cut by:

  • Placing the text cursor inside a component without selecting any text. The whole component is then copied or cut.
  • Selecting some text or selecting one or more components. The text or components are then copied or cut.

Text can be pasted by:

  • Placing the text cursor in some text.
  • Hovering the mouse pointer over an area between 2 components so that the +-button for adding a component appears.
  • Opening the Component window for adding a new component.

The copied content is then pasted at that position. When the text cursor is placed in the middle of some text, that component is then split into two components and the content is added between them.

For more information, see Working with the components of a Digital article in Studio.

  • Digital editor: Options for copying components from the Device preview removed. As a result of the added functionality of copying and pasting components in an article by using keyboard shortcuts, the functionality of copying components from the Device viewer (accessed by clicking Preview in the Digital editor) has been removed.
  • Digital editor: Minor improvements to the Component selector. Adding a component to a Digital article is done by hovering the mouse pointer over an area to make a +-button appear. When clicking the button, a window appears from which components can be selected. The following improvements to these have been made:
  • Minor design changes, including for tooltips.
  • Performance improvements.
  • Useability improvements, including the addition of a horizontal scrollbar when more groups exist than can be shown. Also, when hovering over the +-button in a Container, any Container labels now stay visible.
  • Digital editor: Social media links are now validated on pasting. When adding a Social media component, the link is now directly validated when it is pasted into the field. In previous versions, the validation took place when clicking the button to add the component to the article.
  • Publication Overview: Edition filter turned into a drop-down list. The Edition list in the filter of the Publication Overview has been changed from a list showing all Editions to a drop-down list from which the Edition can be chosen. This improves the working of the filter, especially when many Editions exist. The list uses type-ahead to quickly find an Edition by typing part of its name.

Changes

  • Double-clicking a checked-out file now opens that file. In previous versions, when a user checked-out a file for editing in an external application, closed that file and double-clicked it again in Studio, nothing happened. When such a checked-out file is now double-clicked, the file is opened.

Note: This requires the Desktop application 3.0.9 or higher.

  • Digital editor: list of preview devices updated. When editing a Digital article, the article can be previewed in the dimensions of the devices on which it is going to be published. The list of available devices has been updated.

  • Dossier templates: layouts now also get an Issue assigned. When instantiating a Dossier from a template, layouts now also get an Issue assigned. In previous versions, layouts in a Dossier did not get an Issue assigned when the Dossier was instantiated. As a result, such layouts were hard to find in the system and also did not appear in the Publication Overview. Now, such layouts get the first Issue of the Dossier assigned.
  • Publication Overview: searching for an Issue. This can now be done by typing the name in the list. The list is subsequently filtered on any matching names.

Changes

The following changes have been made in this release of Studio:

The Create New dialog

  • Digital articles. When creating a custom Publication Channel, the option to first choose a channel type has been removed. This is a result of dropping the support for Apple News and Adobe AEM in previous versions; because only one channel type is now supported, the list has become superflous.

New features

The following has been added in this release of Studio:

  • Support for Dossier templates. Creating a story for a publication typically starts by creating a Dossier and adding the necessary files such as an article and layout containing the correct components and styling, Tasks, and so on.

Instead of manually creating Dossiers and their content, Dossier templates can now be set up on which a new Dossier can be based.

Note: This feature is currently limited to creating Dossier templates and viewing their content only. Instantiating Dossier templates will be added in a future release.

For more information, see Working with Dossiers in Studio.
