Release Notes 1.4
What’s New
Select templates when creating new objects
When creating new objects, it is now possible to choose from a list of feature templates. The user can filter this list while using an app. Likewise, filtering of templates can be defined in the app configuration and the filter can be hidden in the user interface.
Improved user interface
Based on user feedback the user interface has been optimized. It is now possible to return to the feature type selection with a Back button. In addition, the main tools for creating and editing a geometry are displayed as buttons with text to make their use easier to understand.
Automatic takeover of user names
The name of the logged in user can now be automatically written to a defined attribute. This applies to both the creator of an object and the user who last edited the object.
Global interface for customizing the editor.
Using a new interceptor logic, the behavior of the editor can be customized by adding your own so-called interceptors, similar to the standard map.apps editing. The previously mentioned username takeover is an implementation that makes use of this interface.
Further new functions and improvements
-
Base maps can be used for snapping. This function must be activated by configuration via the
allowBasemapSnappingsetting. -
When editing edit object vertices, the view is automatically zoomed in on the object if the view is zoomed out too far.
-
In case of incorrect attribute forms (e.g. due to unfilled mandatory fields) a warning is displayed and saving is not possible.
-
The uncompressed source files are now included in the rollout directory by default.
