New features
The following has been added in this release of Studio for InDesign and InCopy:
- Dossier panel: Hiding related Dossiers. By default, the Dossier panel shows the Dossiers that the currently viewed layout is part of, as well as the Dossiers that all placed files are part of.
This can be useful to quickly navigate to a different Dossier, but when many files and their related Dossiers exist, the list of Dossiers can become very long and the overview in the panel can be lost.
A new option named 'Show Related Dossiers' has therefore been added to the panel menu which controls whether or not related Dossiers should be shown.
System administrators can configure the default setting of this option, and prevent users from changing it.
For more information, see:
- Working with Dossiers in Studio for InDesign and InCopy for Adobe 2021 or higher
- Configuring the display of related Dossiers in the Dossier panel of Studio for InDesign and InCopy
Changes
The following changes have been made in this release of Studio for InDesign and InCopy:
- Searching: Reduction in the number of criteria shown by default in the Custom Search dialog box and validation for incorrect input. When creating a Custom Search, the Name field is now shown as the only criteria to search on, instead of the first three criteria configured in the system. This way, default criteria that are not used do not first have to be removed or changed each time. In addition, a validation is now performed to verify that the correct value is entered. For example: when a non-numeric character is entered in a field that only accepts numbers, a message is shown.
- Studio panel: New column 'Placed On (Icon)' added. To better visualize that a file has been placed on a layout, a new column named 'Placed On (Icon)' has been added to the Studio panel. The column is shown by default and displays a 'placed' icon. When hovering over the icon, the names of the layouts on which the file is placed are shown.
- Studio Panel: Number of default columns has been increased by one. The number of default columns has been increased by one to make room for the Placed On (Icon) column (see above).
- Automated processing on InDesign Server: updating server URLs of new servers via scripting. For automated processing on InDesign Server, the WWSettings.xml file on the InDesign Server machine has to be updated with each new Studio Server instance update. To make this process less cumbersome, the server URL can now be provided directly through scripting. For this, the login() and forkLogin() scripting calls have been extended with a URL parameter of the Studio Server to log on to.
- Assets Server integration: Default setting for automatically adding placed Assets images to Studio Server has been set to off for InDesign Server. When adding an image from Assets to a layout, it is automatically added to Studio Server. For InDesign Server, this default setting has been changed to off so that images are not automatically added.
This has been done for the following reasons:
- The automatic creation of Studio images from Assets images while processing layouts on InDesign Server can add considerable load to the InDesign Server processing.
- It is in most cases unexpected that while processing layouts on InDesign Server to create previews and/or PDF images, images are suddenly created in Studio Server.
When needed, this behavior can be controlled through configuration.
