機能

Workspace File Management

• Rename, Move, and Copy Files or Folders with Automatic Reference Updates - You can now easily rename any workspace file or folder by using the Enter key on the selected resource or by using the Rename action found in the contextual menu. One or more workspace files can be easily moved or copied by using the Cut, Copy, and Paste actions that are now found in the contextual menu in the workspace file tree. You can also move files using drag and drop.
  • It is important to note that when working with DITA XML projects, the files or folders that are renamed or moved have their references (links, content references, image references) automatically updated, saving you time since you do not need to update the references manually and preventing validation issues. The references to the modified files (and from these files to other files) are automatically updated so that the overall project remains valid without any broken links.
• Upload Existing Content to Workspace - It is now possible to upload files and folders from your local computer to the Workspace by using simple drag and drop actions. Files can also be uploaded using the Upload File contextual menu action.

Personal Workspace

• Search for Content in Your Workspace - When working within your personal workspace, you can use the new Search view to easily search for specific content in all of the supported files (XML, HTML, Markdown, DITA, DITA Map, TXT) from the associated project. You can also search in review comments and filter them by the author, time, or type of content.
• Entire Project Validation - You can now validate your DITA project using the dedicated Problems view within your workspace. It provides a way to ensure that your project remains valid when you commit your changes. The validation process includes checking compliance with the DITA schema and ensuring that all links and key references are correctly resolved in your publications.
• Git-Friendly Publications Management - You can now configure publications in your personal workspace by using a convenient Manage Publications button found in the header of the Publications view. The main benefit of this functionality is that you can perform multiple related operations (such as adding a publication, creating the DITA Map, and adding initial topics) and push them in the repository with a single commit. You can also customize the commit message according to your preference.
• Ability to Work With Multiple Editor Tabs - You can now keep multiple files open in separate tabs, making it easier to switch focus between files while exploring a project. This feature is particularly useful when you need to open multiple related links and then return to the file you were originally reading.
• Discard All Changes in Your Workspace - If you experimented with a change that affects a lot of files, but you want to start from scratch (for example, when your change is in conflict with changes made by your colleagues), you can use the new "Discard all changes" action to get your workspace to a pristine state.

File Comparison

• Diff Comparison in Source Mode for XML Files - Apart from the visual diff comparison, you can now see differences between two versions of an XML file in Source mode. This is useful when changes are hard or even impossible to see in the Author visual editing mode (for example, a change that affects only white-space formatting, a change in an attribute value, or a change in a review comment).
• Diff and Merge Support for Markdown and Other Text Files - When you modify Markdown or other text files in your workspace, you can now compare the file version in your workspace to the original version of the file that does not contain your changes. In this file comparison tool, you can still make changes to the file and differences are re-computed (automatically for small files). The same file merge tool can also be used when you pull changes in your personal workspace.

Review Tasks

• Create a Review Task with Changes Made in Your Personal Workspace - After you finished making changes in your personal workspace, you can now create a review task that contains your changes so that they can be reviewed before you integrate them in the project.
• Task Owners Displayed in Upper Stripe - When you are inside a review task, information about the task owners is now displayed in the upper stripe. You can click on this Owners area to open a pop-up window with information about all task owners.
• Open and Compare Versions Directly from the Task Activity Page - When you hover over a file change in the Task Activity page (or side-view), a menu now becomes available with actions to open the latest version of a particular file or the version of the file when the change was made. It also contains actions to open a comparison (diff) between the selected file and one of its previous versions.

Authoring

• Color Highlights - You can now highlight document content using one of the predefined colors. These highlights can be used to signal to the reviewers that some content needs special attention. The color highlights are presented in the review panel where you can easily manage them.
• Edit DITA Map with Topic Content Expanded - When editing a DITA map in the visual editor within your personal workspace, an Edit Topic Content (BETA) toolbar action (available in the DITA Map Display Mode drop-down menu) is now available to display the map with all of the topic content expanded in one document and the topic content is editable. When editing a DITA map in this mode, the editor provides actions for both editing topic content and editing map content.
• Insert Links and Topic References Using Drag and Drop - You can now drag resources from the Files and Publications side-views and drop them in the specialized DITA map tree editor to easily insert a link or topic reference at the particular location. This makes it very easy to add existing topics to a new DITA map or add the same topic to multiple maps.
• Simple Text Editor - You can now use a simple text editor to make changes to non-XML files in your workspace. For example, you can modify a configuration file written in YAML without using an external tool. The editor offers basic functions such as undo, redo, and search.
• Chinese IME Support - Chinese IME support is now available in Google Chrome browsers.

Publishing

• Project Execution Status View - A new Execution Status page has been added to display information about the status of deliverables with builds that are pending or in progress for a project. Authors have the ability to stop builds that are in progress and view the status of builds, including wait time and run time.
• Project Metrics View - A new Metrics page is available at the project level to display various metrics regarding executed deliverable builds. These metrics include the number of runs, success rate, execution duration, wait time, and memory usage. This data can help analyze the project's health and potentially indicate a need for more resources.
