The way to change your password has changed

The way you change password inside the DC has changed a bit.

How to access it

Go to System tools → Users and groups → Users and choose any user. Then open the editor at the right. In the bottom of that page, you will see a button that you have to press to change passwords.

How to configure it

The password input field has been removed. In order to change password, you have to click the button Change password. If the user who is logged in has the role Editor_SystemTools_UserManager_User, he or she will be able to change any users password without entering the existing password first.

UI for old profiles and destinations is removed

The functionality stays but the UI is removed. Guide and further explanation can be found here:

New Search Editor (Search2)

Search2 has gotten a new, more user friendly UI. The new Search Editor is a replacement for the XML text area, which was previously used to edit and/or create searches. The XML definition of a search has been completely black boxed, in that a user no longer sees the XML. Instead the XML is parsed and displayed in a more user friendly manner.

The "user friendly" part of the new UI is that several choices are made for the user, for example the order of filters, which is now programmatically calculated; it is impossible to make mistakes with regard to "valueHandler"-"renderType" combinations, etc. The only times where a user is forced to input text is for a filter/value field's ID and any "predetermined values".

How to access it

1. Go to DAM Center.

2. Expand the System Tools tab in the left navigation bar.

3. Expand Config Manager.

4. Select the desired product version.

5. Click the Searches tab.

6. Select a search.

How it works

Parses a given search into a UI, which helps the user perform edits to the search.

How to configure it

Simply works Out Of the Box.

New Search documentation (Search2)

The new Search Editor comes with updated documentation, which guides the user through the use of the new Search Editor as well as defining various terms such as "valueHandler" and all of its allowed values.

2. Go to the Documentation space

3. Expand Digizuite™ DAM Center

5. Expand Configuration Guides - Digizuite™ DAM Center v4.7.0

How it works

The documentation guides the user through the new Search Editor. It also defines terms such as "valueHandler" and "renderType" and gives thorough explanations of all available values and the impact of choosing the various values.

How to configure it

No configuration is needed.

No more bypassing required field check when multiediting - unless you really want to

Until now no required check was done when selecting multiple assets when uploading or editing metadata for existing assets. Now digizuite config 'VALIDATE_REQUIRED_WHEN_MULTISELECTING' has been introduced to enable or disable this check. It will be enabled by default after an update to this DAM version.

How to access it

When VALIDATE_REQUIRED_WHEN_MULTISELECTING is set to 1 and more than 1 asset is selected for metadata editing the required check will be performed as normal. This is the default behavior.

How it works

Required fields are marked with an asterisk in the name and will have a red border around the control if no input has been given.

Now shown with valid input:

How to configure it

Go to System tools → Digizuite configuration and find VALIDATE_REQUIRED_WHEN_MULTISELECTING in the list. Set to 1 to enable the feature and 0 to disable it. When disabling the feature functionality will be as pre-4.7.0.
