New UI and Tasklists

🌺 Anchorpoint should not feel so heavy. So we have completely adapted the interface again. The preview page is undocked (like in the macOS Finder) and can be closed via space.

📝 We finally have tasklists (or TODO lists ;) ) You can now create tasklists in every folder and assign attributes to them.

Here again an overview

  • The Delete Files popup can be turned off in the preferences
  • Autoplay of videos can be turned off in the preferences as well
  • The scrolling state is saved
  • The video position is saved
  • Projects can now be created directly from the project list
  • Colors, layouts and spacing in the UI have been adjusted
  • The Compact Mode can be turned on and off with Tab
  • In Compact Mode Anchorpoint can be pinned and stays always on top
  • The preview page is opened and closed with Space
  • Versions and comments load faster
  • Fullscreen mode
  • Tasklists can be created in folders
  • Tasklists can be checked by users
  • Attributes show who has checked a task and when
  • Attributes can be added to tasklists
  • Attributes work on sequence entries

Actions

  • DCCs can be started via actions with dedicated enviroment variables
  • Actions can be deactivated
  • Actions work on multiselection
  • Settings (credentials, custom paths to DCCs) entered by the user are stored in a settings store accessible via Python

  • Action examples on GitHub
  • Full offline functionality (you can edit metadata when being offline)
  • Horizontal scrolling in list
  • Easier attribute editing in grid view
