What's new?

  • Introducing the ability to Archive your Alleo boards! This is useful when you want to accomplish the following:

    • Clear the clutter. Select a board's submenu on the dashboard and press "Send to Archive." You can access the "Archived boards" section in the user dropdown in the dashboard header.

    • Retrieve archived boards at a later time. The board is also shared with your Org Administrators to make it easy to restore legacy boards.

  • Introducing the ability to Blur surroundings when zooming to objects! Optimal for presentations, this board setting guarantees uniform content visibility across all aspect ratios, fostering focused engagement.

  • Introducing the Advanced Video Player widget! Now available in the widgets library, it offers unique video playback options. Stay tuned for more enhancements!

Enhancements

Snapshot via object action

  • Now you can create snapshots via an object action. Simply specify the object to snapshot and the target container. This is useful when you want to have customized snapshot UI without accessing an asset's context menu.

Navigation enhancements

  • The Navigation Panel now defaults to a list view. With this UI enhancement, now you can more easily manage the order of a larger list of slides and locations.

  • The position of the Navigation panel is now remembered. When you re-open the panel it will be opened in the last-docked position.

  • When you are searching for an Alleo Rooms display in the "Open on display" modal or "Navigate displays" action, the search UI has been optimized so displays are listed under their associated tags. Note: an Org Admin can apply tags to Alleo Rooms displays via the admin website.

  • After zooming in on a touch device, now you can double tap to zoom out.

  • Now you can hold down the middle mouse button to move around the canvas. Note: this will not work on some widgets as they might use the middle click for other actions.

Object drawing context menu enhancements

  • There is now an added step to "End for all" so an in-progress drawing is not inadvertently disrupted.

  • The eraser and drawing tools are now grouped together for a smoother workflow. The currently selected tool is now highlighted in orange for clearer identification.

Board UI enhancements

  • Opening a board from a restricted link now limits content to the associated location or slide, with excess areas blacked out at the top or bottom based upon the aspect ratio.

  • Now the board setting to show or hide the board context menu is configurable for displays vs. users.

  • Pasting a link directly onto your board now feels smoother. We've added a dedicated "Open Link" button next to the pasted link, improving the selection experience.

  • Files panel UI has been updated for a more aesthetic look and fee.

  • When adding a container via the 16:9 preset, objects are now centered by default.

  • The Users List now displays a dedicated display icon next to Alleo Rooms displays that are currently in the board.

Settings UI enhancements

  • Settings modals have been "brightened up" to allow for better contrast between the modals and app content.

  • In board settings, the font selection UI has been improved for better clarity when overriding default fonts.

Admin experience

  • Analytics have been moved to the Alleo admin site, placing all your organizational settings and data conveniently in one central location.

Resolved issues

  • The quality of the Alleo Screen Share video stream has been improved.

  • We resolved an issue when downloading Alleo Rooms logs from the admin portal.

  • We resolved an issue when using a touch pad to pinch-to-zoom.

  • We resolved an issue when pasting text from a Windows Notepad to auto-generate an Alleo Notepad.

  • We resolved an issue when you embed a restricted link in another board.

  • We resolved an issue when you are logging into the web admin via OAuth.

  • We resolved an issue with overlapping slides when a template is added from the Navigation panel.
