What's New in Web UI for LTS 2021 (version 3.0.15)
This release improves the experience when dealing with bulk actions on smaller sets of documents and improves accessibility.
Bulk Actions - Unselect Some
Our previous releases made it easy to execute bulk actions on large sets of documents, including bulk editing them.
This latest release puts focus on dealing with smaller sets of documents: it is now possible to unselect individual documents after having used the select all.
Bulk actions are still available as usual for the documents that remain selected.
Accessibility Related Changes
Date-picker Element Upgrade
In the latest independent report we received, the nuxeo-date-picker
element accounted for ~25% of the identified violations. Since it is based on an element provided by the Vaadin library, we upgraded the underlying element to its latest release in order to benefit from accessibility improvements, while keeping the existing API intact.
This upgrade dramatically improves the accessibility of the product, while being transparent. See [WEBUI-799] for details.
