Experience Manager functionality introduced in SDL Web 8
New features and functionality in the browser-based Experience Manager user interface.
- Button to launch Experience Manager changed and repositioned
-
A button labeled SDL Tridion previously appeared in the top left corner of Experience Manager-enabled Web pages, allowing the user to launch Experience Manager. Such pages now display a pencil icon button at top right that does the same thing.
- Simpler form view
-
In addition to the full-fledged Form View dialog (identical to the one displayed in Content Manager Explorer), Experience Manager now also has a simpler Form View, which shows all fields of the selected Component or Page, without all the additional controls.
- Increased user control of the Notification panel
-
Two improvements to the Notification panel, available from the top of the screen: users can now mark all items in the Show Pending screen as read, and users can clear all notifications from the Show All screen.
- Format Area: clipboard access through browser only
-
To cut, copy and paste in a Format Area, users can only use the keystrokes supported by the internet browser they use; there are no more Cut, Copy or Paste buttons in the toolbar.
