New and changed in version 15.1.1

Tridion Docs 15.1 Update 1 introduces new functionality to the product.

Metrics
The Metrics reporting feature enables you to measure the effectiveness of your use of structured content, and of your content reuse, through reporting and analytics. Specifically, the features enables you to:
  • produce out-of-the-box reporting
  • measure content reuse
  • provide return-on-investment (ROI) metrics
  • identify cost savings gained through the use of structured content
  • validate team efficiency and productivity by business unit
Organize Space toolbar improvements
This release improves the usability and accessibility of the Organize Space user interface with the following changes to the toolbar buttons:
  • Adding text labels to the buttons
  • ​Grouping related buttons
Organize Space grid view and grid resolution
Organize Space users can now apply an alternate grid layout to the list view, which is particularly useful for viewing multimedia content. This enhancement uses the latest technology, which provides an improved user experience over conventional thumbnails.

The grid view is available when working in the Content area from any of these Organize Space tabs: Structured content, Inbox and Search.

The grid view is useful to users primarily while they are working with images, but it applies also to non-image objects. For non-images, the grid view shows a larger icon representation of the object type.

In support of the grid view, 15.1.1 adds a new resolution, Grid resolution. As with other resolutions, system administrators can define this resolution in Organize Space under Settings > System > Default Settings. The default grid resolution is Low.

Review resolution for Organize Space
You can define the review resolution setting to change the image resolution that is used in Collective Spaces whenever a user chooses the option to view an image in the review resolution.

Along with editing and reviewing the textual content, your Collective Spaces users may need to review the images that are part of a document, such as the details of diagrams. If a Collective Spaces user wants to see an image in more detail, they can right-click on the image and select the option to View image in review resolution. The image appears in a new browser window and uses the review resolution.

The review resolution defaults to the value configured for Preview resolution, as found under Settings > System > Default Settings in Organize Space. If the review resolution does not display images clearly or with enough detail, you can configure it so that Collective Spaces uses one of the other Tridion Docs image resolutions, such as "High".

Add-on configuration available for background extensions
Previously, because Add-on configurations were transferred via the Extensions endpoint, they were available only for front-end extensions. Now, the configuration is also load into application memory, so now back-end extensions can also read the configuration.
