Welcome to the latest Activator version! This update brings bug fixes, new features, and improvements all around the system. Some changes are not visible to the end-user.
Let's explore what's new!

See the following explanations for enablement options:

• AUTO-ON: Automatically activated and no configuration is required before using the feature; in some cases, a new feature is dependent on another feature that must be enabled or configured.

• CONFIGURATION: Anthill must turn on or configure the feature before it is available to use or is active; for example, an Admin must add document templates before users can create documents from templates.

What’s new in 3.0.0-alpha-s.19

Email Fragments

Email Fragments are reusable document sections that make creating and updating email content easier. They act as building blocks you can use in different emails without needing to start from scratch each time.

When authoring an Email, you can select a Layout and convert it to a standalone Email Fragment, saving it for future use. You can also search for specific Email Fragments to add to your emails, making it simple to access pre-designed elements.

Manage, find and use Email Fragments

We’ve introduced and Email Fragment pane in the Content panel for managing your Email Fragments. You can easily add, refresh, or remove Email Fragments from an Email as needed.

Within this this pane you can search specifically for Email Fragments with advanced filtering, letting you quickly browse, sort, and select Email Fragments directly from a centralized location. AUTO-ON

Relationship between Emails and Email Fragments

Our integration supports a new type of relationship between Emails and Email Fragments, modeled after the way Media Assets are connected. This enables smooth linking between email content and fragments, so they work together efficiently. CONFIGURATION

Convert Layouts to Email Fragments with ease

Use the Convert to Fragment feature to quickly create new Email Fragments from parts of your Email. Add custom details like name, group, and description for better organising, making it easy to integrate these reusable elements into your projects. AUTO-ON

MLR View

Introducing the MLR-tab in the Preview switcher. This enhancement allows you to trigger the MLR mode for a streamlined document viewing experience with highlights that connect directly to the editor. The MLR side panel provides additional functionalities such as Email metadata and a comprehensive layout overview, evolving into detailed layout views when a specific layout is selected. AUTO-ON

MLR Reports

The MLR Report is a new type of report designed to make life easier for approvers.

Generate MLR Reports Directly from Preview

Users can now create MLR Reports directly from the MLR View in Preview mode by simply clicking the [Get MLR Report]-link, and the system will handle the rest, automating the report generation. AUTO-ON

Automatic prompts for unpublished changes

If there are unpublished changes in your document, a prompt will appear, asking you to publish them before generating the MLR Report. This ensures your report reflects the most current information. AUTO-ON

Customizable placement in DAM System

MLR Reports can be configured to upload to the Digital Asset Management (DAM) system as the main file, an additional file, or a related file. This offers flexibility for organizing and integrating reports into your content library. CONFIGURATION

Action Snackbars

Introducing the ability to perform actions directly from snackbars, such as downloading generated files or opening links. This enhancement allows for a more interactive and seamless user experience by integrating actionable options allowing users to complete tasks more efficiently without navigating away from their current workflow. AUTO-ON

Session Optimization

Enhancements have been made to streamline the user session management, which will ensure that if a user is already logged into Aprimo, their session is seamlessly reused, providing a smoother and more efficient login experience. AUTO-ON

Enhanced Drag-and-Drop Functionality

Introducing improvements to our drag-and-drop feature, now allowing layout components to be added seamlessly without dragging the underlying HTML. This enhancement addresses user feedback on easing layout modifications without technical interruptions.

Additionally, the drag and drop experience on Mac has been refined to provide clearer feedback when placing media assets and elements. The plus icon now appears only in areas where the item can be successfully dropped, eliminating any confusion and streamlining the workflow.

Bugfixes

• Consistent Spacing Across Activator and Outlook Resolved issue where line spacing differed between Activator previews and Outlook test proofs.

• Activator UI Display Issue Post-Preview Exiting the document preview can inconsistently scale the Activator UI based on browser window size, which can be corrected by resizing the debug console window.

• Responsive Column Layout Fix Resolved an issue where columns within a 100% width group container were being squashed on mobile views, ensuring correct display of 3% and 97% width columns.

• Elements Not Selectable After Publish Resolved an issue where elements could not be selected after publishing a document, requiring a page refresh to restore functionality.

• Enhanced Media Asset Search Resolved an issue in the media asset search where additional results were not loading on large screens, ensuring seamless access to all available assets.
