What's new?

Introducing the QR Code widget! Enhance interaction on your boards by adding QR codes containing URLs, text, email, and phone numbers.
Enhancements
The default Snapshots experience has been enhanced. The resulting snapshot image is now copied to the clipboard instead of "flying out" to the right of the selected asset. Simply right click the background at the desired position and paste the snapshot.
As a board owner, now you can specify a default "snapshots" container. When enabled, all Snapshots will be added to the targeted container. This settings can be found under Board Settings -> Customization.
You can also optionally target a container for a specific asset via asset settings, and this overrides the board setting for the default snapshot container.
As a designer, now you can create a slide template with a button action to "Reset slide." This will remove all changes and revert the slide content to the original slide template so you can start fresh.
Board templates have moved to a dedicated Templates Library modal. In addition to your templates, this section contains a growing list of Alleo-provided board templates.
Now you can upload a custom image to be displayed as a board tile in the Alleo dashboard. Select Edit board -> Advanced -> click the upload button to upload an image as the tile graphic for the board.
Now you can disable the synchronization of video playback for all users so the video will only play back for users who press the play button. This setting can be found under asset settings -> Customization.
When opening a board on an Alleo Rooms display, now the "select all" option prompts to warn the user that this will result in sharing the board with all displays in the organization.
Now you can use button actions to trigger a widget to perform an additional action. This is useful if you want to have consecutive timers which automatically navigate and begin a countdown in multiple locations on a board.
When searching boards on the dashboard, now you can type "@me" to filter boards created by the current user.
Now you can resize the Polling widget asset without scaling.
The "Add slide" icon in the Slide context menu has been updated for better clarity.
Resolved Issues
We resolved an issue with the webcam blur effect degrading the "smoothness" of live video.
When Embed assets are locked, single clicks can interact with the embedded iFrame.
We resolved a text formatting issue when pasting content to auto-generate a Notepad.
We resolved an issue when overriding the default size of an Embed asset.
When an Alleo Rooms board is in use, now the status displays "in use" for Org Admin users. Note: Org Admin users can still override the board.
We resolved an issue when a PowerPoint file contains "arrow art." These graphics are now properly converted in the Alleo document asset.
