Overview of what’s new
New workflow for approving and publishing Templates along with a new Authoring UI!
Editorial control & versioning of Manifest Templates
- Submit, approve (or reject with comments) and publish Templates with new user roles and workflow
- Use only Published Templates to create and assign Jobs
- Automatically notify users when a new version of a Template is available and provide options to proceed with previously scheduled Jobs.
- Track Template versions and activity as well as associated Job activity and history
Enhanced Authoring UI
- Effectively document procedures with a more intuitive Authoring UI and design that is consistent across creating, viewing, and performing Jobs
- Author in both 2D and AR modes
- Leverage larger call-to-action buttons for creating new Steps, authoring Step Notes, and positioning spatial content – all within thumbs reach
- Create procedures with a new editor to view Templates the way Operators will see them
- Place AR Notes by holding one finger to the screen and moving the screen or rotating the screen, making it easier and faster to create these notes
- More easily create AR Leader lines
- Add Jobs directly from a Template
Additional Improvements
- We’ve updated the app scanner to improve tracking and accuracy when placing or rendering AR content (users can disable this option and revert to the old scanner under Settings: Experimental Features)
- Default start-up screen is the Work dashboard, so users more easily find assigned Work
- Animated and highlighted “Switch to AR” toggle button prompts users to review AR content
- Action Notes are split out as their own Note types, rather than being grouped together
- Pen Notes are renamed to AR Notes
