For Users

Nuxeo Mobile

8.3 Nuxeo Mobile provides an out of the box mobile experience with any customized Nuxeo Platform server. It lets you access content stored on Nuxeo Platform servers on your phone. Nuxeo Mobile provides a seamless experience on essential features such as searching, browsing, previewing documents (typically images, videos, text documents and notes), and managing favorite documents. Nuxeo Mobile is available for iOs and Android.

Nuxeo Web UI Beta

8.3 8.10 A new UI is being written for the LTS 2016. Purpose is to move to more recent standards and technological stack (Web Components and Polymer) and to take the opportunity to reboot the user experience. Some important steps around configurability are missing before reaching the 1.0 version. Yet a large part of the feature scope is implemented and robust. We encourage you to check it out yourself:

Content browsing, with great new features in comparison with JSF UI, like recently seen documents
Content capture, including batch metadata edition and Live Connect
Workflows
Search, including new asset search screens
Document lists a.k.a Queues
Analytics
Preview and more.

Final release for LTS 2016 is to be expected for April 2017. Nuxeo Web UI is already available on the Marketplace and you can check its documentation for more details.

Instant Share

8.1 A new feature allows to invite users to a given folder of the Nuxeo Platform with either Read or Edit permission, by email. Invited users do not have an account on the Nuxeo Platform instance. The access is temporary and any access remains tracked in the audit log, based on the used email address. Read more in the documentation.

Nuxeo 3D Addon

8.10 A new addon adds 3D Support to the Nuxeo Platform: canonical views extraction, technical metadata, transformations and 3D previewer for web applications. Those new capabilities can be used for creative process in the textile industry for instance. Read more in the documentation.

Nuxeo Live Connect for Box

8.1 Nuxeo Live Connect has been improved and now integrates with Box.com. Nuxeo Live Connect allows to easily reference files that are stored in the cloud and have them participate to your business processes. Check the Nuxeo Live Connect documentation for more information.

Nuxeo Live Connect for One Drive

8.2 Nuxeo Live Connect has been improved and now integrates with One Drive. Nuxeo Live Connect allows to easily reference files that are stored in the cloud and have them participate to your business processes. It offers as usual with Live Connect: direct download from the Microsoft Cloud, full text indexing etc. We also have come out with a generic One Drive Java client and a generic file picker as well.

Nuxeo Drive Optimizations

A message is now displayed to the user when there is no space left on their device (used to be logs only).
The autolock of files edited with Drive Edit on Windows is now more consistent.
At initial synchronization, the time needed to retrieve the documents is 4 times lower and the number of children synchronized in a folder is no more limited to 1000.

Long Renditions

8.10Optimizations have been done on the way renditions computation are scheduled to avoid that a long one with quickly changing documents would monopolize all the resources all the time, preventing uses to get other renditions.

Bigger Resolutions for Picture Renditions

8.10 A new FullHD rendition has been added: 1920x1080, and other renditions's resolutions have been increased: Small picture rendition width limit has been increased from 280 to 560. Medium picture rendition width limit has been increased from 550 to 1000.

No More Error Stack Trace by Default

Do Not Checkout a Document When Putting It in the Trash

  <property name="org.nuxeo.trash.keepCheckedIn">true</property>

8.3 Now, the time needed to import an element in a large collection has been greatly reduced.

You can also enable this behavior for all kind of document copies by setting nuxeo.dclistener.reset-creator-on-copy configuration property to true.

New Addons

Nuxeo Showcase Content

8.3 The Nuxeo Showcase Content addon imports a set of showcase content so that the repository is not empty for your first steps: office documents, images, videos. The content of this addon has been updated with new sample documents (reports, case studies, etc.). This addon is a good way to start with your Nuxeo Platform.

Nuxeo Platform Additional Languages

8.10 In order to improve the quality of the Nuxeo Platform and user experience, only languages that are sufficiently translated are now available in the default distribution of the Nuxeo Platform. Other languages are available in the new addon Nuxeo Platform Additional Languages, from the Nuxeo Marketplace.
