πΊοΈβ¨π 0.10.1 - Geo Points Clarity, Smoother Navigation, and UI Polish (April 6th, 2025)β
Version 0.10.1 focuses on enhancing clarity across the platform, refining navigation, and polishing the user experience in key areas like task management and settings.
π New Featuresβ
-
Clearer Terminology: "Site" is now "Geo Point": To better reflect its function as a specific geographical location marker, the term "Site" has been updated to "Geo Point" throughout the entire application, including settings, project management, and all related descriptions.
-
Improved Project Links & Navigation: We've updated how project links work in your browser's address bar. This change makes sharing links to specific projects more reliable and streamlines navigation between different project views.
-
Enhanced Task Template Selection: Choosing or creating a task template is now more intuitive. We've added a visual diagram to illustrate how templates relate to tasks and made the options clearer if you need to use the AI Assistant or manual input when a suitable template isn't found.
-
Smoother Task Loading on Overview: For projects with many tasks, the Overview page now loads tasks more efficiently, including a "Load More" button to view additional tasks without slowing down the initial page load.
-
Archived Projects View: You can now easily access and manage your archived projects via a dedicated view within the Settings > Projects page.
π¨ UI/UX Improvementsβ
-
Streamlined Settings Management (Geo Points & Projects): Added convenient "+" buttons for quicker creation of new Geo Points and Projects. When selecting an item from a list (like a Geo Point or Project), the list will now automatically scroll to ensure your selection is clearly visible.
-
Better Guidance on Climate Data Map: The map for selecting locations on the Climate Data page now provides clearer prompts for interaction and includes a "locked map" overlay after you've made a selection, indicating you need to specifically choose to select a new location.
-
Polished Dropdowns and Search: Improved the look and feel of various dropdowns and search components, including the user selection and general search fields.
-
Refined Campaign Forms: Minor visual adjustments to the Campaign creation and editing forms for better usability.
-
General UI Polish: Continued refinement of button styles, empty state messages, and overall visual consistency across the platform.
π Bug Fixesβ
