Version 4.0 of Oxygen Content Fusion is the latest
release for the innovative collaboration platform that is designed to improve any
documentation review process.
Some of the most interesting improvements added in this version include the ability for
collaborative teams to edit and review content concurrently, a new
dynamic floating toolbar gives you easier access to the most common
editing and styling actions, the language can now be changed for the entire
user interface, and more.
Note: If are upgrading from a previous Content Fusion version, make
sure you apply the backup process fix before upgrading.
Authoring teams now have the ability to edit and review content
concurrently. This option can be enabled for any particular task that you are
assigned as the owner in the Settings page. You and your colleagues can
then edit and review the same document simultaneously in the visual editor. Each user can
see the changes made by other users, and vice versa, in real-time.
Localization
Change the UI Language
It is now possible to easily change the language of the interface. This option
is found in your user profile page and the supported languages include
English, French, German,
Dutch, Japanese, and simplified
Chinese.
Visual Editor
Updated Oxygen XML Web Author
The visual editor that is based on Oxygen XML Web Author was updated to version
23.1.0, which contains numerous editing, performance, and security improvements. For
details, please see What's New in
Oxygen XML Web Author 23.1.0.
Floating Toolbar Provides Quicker Access to Common Editing Actions
You can now quickly invoke context-specific common actions in the visual
editor. They are available in a floating toolbar that pops up when you select content. For
example, if you select content inside a paragraph element, the floating toolbar includes
common styling actions such as Bold, Italic,
Underline, Subscript, Superscript, and
others. It helps to increase your productivity by giving you easier access to the most
common editing and styling actions.
Copy Content and Paste as HTML
You can now copy content from documents in the visual editor and paste it into
an external application (such as a Word document or email) and the HTML structure is
preserved.
Ctrl+Click to Open Links
It is now easier to open links when editing documents in the visual editor,
simply by using the Ctrl+Click shortcut. It opens the target of the link
in a new browser tab.
Outline Pane Moved to the Right Side of the UI
The Outline pane, which displays a general tag overview of the
currently open document, was moved to the right side of the interface along with the other
useful side panes. This leaves more room for the activity stream on the left side of the
interface.
Search Performance Optimized
Find/replace operations in the visual editor are optimized for better
performance, particularly for very large documents with numerous matches.
Component Updates
Ubuntu 20.04
Ubuntu Server (used in VMware, AWS, and Docker images) was updated to version
20.04.
