Major improvements in this version include shared collections in web client that allow you to quickly share documents with colleagues and clients; faster batch tag-assignment; support for video playback in web client; drag’n’drop tag assignment in web client; faster optimization of the database; the “Does not contain” condition for some tags in advanced search.
Major Improvements
1. Shared collections
A great addition for teams who need to share files without having to give clients or colleagues direct access to the whole catalog. You can quickly share your documents now via Shared Collections in Web client with precise sharing options: expiration date, password-protected access, access to original hi-res file version. Learn more about shared collections.
2. Support for video playback in web client
Now MPEG4 (AVC codec) and WebM can be played directly from within web client, thus saving you from having to open these files in desktop video players. Support for other video formats is planned for future Daminion releases.
3. Drag’n’drop tag assignment in web client
Assigning tags to files in web client is now faster and more convenient. Tags can now be assigned by dragging and dropping selected items to the necessary tag in the browse panel. Learn more.
4. Faster batch tag-assignment in desktop client
Assigning multiple tags for multiple files is now up to 5 times faster.
5. Faster optimization of the database
The optimization process which helps keep the database up-to-date no longer hangs on large databases (more than 2 million files), and even runs significantly faster on small databases.
6. “Does not contain” condition added for some tags
The “Does not contain” condition has been added to Advanced Search for Title, Description, Comment, Rights Usage Terms, Imported By, and for all custom tags of long text format (should be set up to display in the Properties panel only) which makes your search results more precise.
