We removed the red hotspots with the video pop-ups and added a help sidebar, which shows Anchorpoints' most frequent use cases and links to the documentation and tutorials. Empty states and descriptions are clearer and contain links to the documentation for more information.

Features and UX

• Changed files in Git show the file path in a location attribute
• Sorting and the quick filter work in Git changed files
• Project icon can be added to tabs (you have to enable it in the application settings)
• The project list allows manual sorting via drag and drop
• Send message stores the input text
• Hover effects are quicker, so the application feels lighter
• New members can be immediately assigned to projects after they get invited to the workspace
• Multiselection works on the Projects page
• Improved action descriptions
• Cloud Drive now supports Google Cloud (experimental)
• Added Create Referenced File (Publish) command (experimental)

Fixes

• Fixed scrolling jumps sometimes (the scrolling steps were too high)

Highlights

• Cloud Drive Support for macOS
  Now you can mount a cloud drive on a Mac just like you can on Windows, with no configuration or permissions required.
• Recent Files Block
  Quickly access the last 5 project files from the Project Dashboard
• Audio file thumbnails
  View a waveform of .mp3, .wav, and other audio files. Hover over a file to trigger playback. If you still see wrong thumbnails, go to the Account Settings / Application and clear the image cache.

Improvements

• Project dashboard is shown when the application is starting for the first time
• Default sidebar width has been doubled
• Clear image cache button to free up disk space used by thumbnails

Fixes

• Fixed an issue with a failed initial commit in Git repositories
• Fixed an issue when sorting on folders and files
• Fixed an issue when renaming folders. This broke metadata in the past.

This update comes with a lot of improvements when using version control with Git.

Single file operations

• Revert and restore selected files, rather than doing it on the whole commit.
• Restore allows you to overwrite the current version or place both versions next to each other in case you want to merge two files manually together.

Combine Commit and Push

Commit and Push are now one operation, which makes the workflow even simpler. You can also split Commit and Push in the Workspace Settings under Git.

Text viewer

Anchorpoint is able to show text files correctly. It can also show inline changes of commits, which is important when you write C# scripts for Unity or C++ or Verse for Unreal Engine.

Project dashboard

This is a new personal overview page which shows all the workspace members, projects, and project details such as:

• The project location
• Members assigned to the project

It is also the default page when creating a new tab or joining an Anchorpoint workspace as a new user. This will make onboarding of new artists easier.

Furthermore, a new demo project is also included.

Further fixes

• You can delete your Anchorpoint account under account settings
• Workspace and account settings are now accessible from the same page
• Fixed click zones in comments
• Fixed an issue where folders with a lot of content could not load properly
• Fixed join project issues with Dropbox Business on macOS
• Fixed an issue with profile naming

This update comes with an Action Distribution improvement and other small fixes

• Fixed project folder looses icon color
• Fixed issue with displaying more than 1000 files in the browser and image sequence stacking
• The default action repository is now linked to tags in the Anchorpoint GitHub repository and is backwards compatible.

This update provides another set of improvements for version control using Git. We have unified file views and improved the daily commit, push, and pull workflow.

Unified Views in Git Commits

• List and Grid Views
• Image Sequence Stacking
• Supports Multi-Selection to choose which files should be committed and which ones should not

Git Improvements

• Shelved Files
  Also known as Git Auto Stash. File changes can be pulled even when uncommitted file changes exist. You don’t need to commit your files when doing a pull anymore. Branches can also be switched, even with uncommitted file changes.

• Join Git Repositories, even when you have already checked out the repository with another Git client
• The commit process is now cancelable
• The pull process is now cancelable
• Pulled commits are merged instead of being rebased. This solves issues when you have a lot of local commits and want to pull a change from a team member.
• Improved Git terminal on macOS
• Timeline shows new remote commits in a batch icon
• Anchorpoint detects if files are locked and informs the user

Other Improvements

• Search results can now be grouped via folder, modification date, or best match
• Show a count on the workspace indicator when there are new projects available
• New task blocks are incrementing their name

Fixes

• Fixed wrong deletion status in Git of files that are still there
• Fixed crash in MPV video player on hover on thumbnails
• Fixed the issue that filters are disabled once sorting is triggered
• Fixed missing search results for tags
• Added a button in troubleshooting to reset window positions when the window is no longer available
• Scrolling issues on larger folders have been resolved
• Project menu is closed automatically when you open a project in a new tab
