What's new?

  • Introducing Active Speaker Mode! When adding the active speaker asset, it will display live video for the active speaker based upon the most active audio in the call. This is very useful when conducting a Q&A session during presentations or other meetings. You can find this option in the main tools bar.

  • When sharing your screen or live video, now you can create a video mask by selecting the "Clip shape" button in the asset menu. This will mask the asset content with the selected shape.

  • Now you can invite user groups to a Haptic board! As an administrator, you can manage users in a group via the web admin. When inviting a group, you can also set the board permission for the specified group.

Enhancements

  • Now you can join a call via your mobile device. When a call is active, simply unmute via the mic icon. Note: the interactive portrait experience is still available via the QR code, and the QR graphic can be copied via the 'SHARE' modal.

  • Now you can resize containers even when they are grouped. This makes it much easier to build multi-dimensional or other unique "drop-zone" layouts. Note that individual container labels will be hidden when you group multiple containers.

  • We have added an option to center container contents. Simply select the container asset settings and select the "Center objects" checkbox.

  • As a user with "owner" permissions, now when you mute a specific user, that user will be muted for everyone in the board.

  • Now you can download a folder from the asset library as a zip file.

  • We have added an experimental feature that allows you to set an image to the background layer. To activate this mode, select the image and press the "ctr + shift + alt + [" keys. This will keep the image behind all objects, and the image will not be automatically grouped with other assets.
