PathcoreFlow™ Release Notes

v3.2 (2023-07-26)

Pathcore developers have been busy at work, and we are now introducing PathcoreFlow Version 3.2, which includes several improvements to enhance user experience. In addition to these, we have fixed many bugs.

What's New

Improved Save Dialog

The design of the save dialog for Figures has been updated to be more clear and intuitive.

Where previously a navigation breadcrumb showed a single folder, now there is a dropdown menu that includes both a set of recently visited folders and the list of folders related to the currently configured Split View panel. This provides quick access to the likely locations where a user would want to save a new Figure.

Status Icons

The Repository now displays a status icon next to an item's name if there is something notable about that item. For example, if there are Share Links, an image is missing, or an upload is incomplete. Hovering over the icon provides more detail.

Additionally, there is a new System Field: Status. This field currently has three possible values - "Available", "Not Available", or "Missing" - and can be used in search queries. This new field replaces the "Availability" column in folder listings, which has been removed.

Improvements

A number of enhancements have been made to improve the usability of the software based on customer suggestions and feedback.

Viewer Improvements

  • Freehand annotations now support length and area values (where possible)

Repository Improvements

  • Accuracy of the "storage used" value has been improved
  • The System Field "Parent Name" has been renamed to "Location"
  • When a user creates a Share Link, "Anonymize data" defaults to on if that user does not have access to PHI, and cannot be toggled off

Integration Improvements

  • Updated integration with TetraScience platform to improve the metadata sync process
  • Improved authentication token support for Visiopharm v2023.01.4 and later, which should prevent overnight batch jobs from failing

Other Improvements

  • Various other changes and improvements to improve performance, reliability, and assist with future feature updates

Fixed in this Release

In this release, we have implemented the following bug fixes and UI improvements to address customer suggestions and feedback.

Viewer Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where the Overview panel would disappear if the word "Overview" was tapped in mobile view
  • Fixed a bug that would sometimes cause the wrong ROI to be rendered in a saved Figure
  • Fixed a bug where rotating an image in a Split View configuration and then saving it as a Figure would store an incorrect value for the magnification level of the rotated image
  • Fixed a bug where an image used in a Figure may display a black background when zoomed out, even when the White Background toggle has been enabled
  • Fixed a bug that would sometimes set the magnification of an image to the wrong value when manually typing in the desired magnification value

Repository Fixes

  • Fixed a bug that caused all items in the Summary page list view to be unclickable
  • The quick search field is no longer cleared if a user opens an image in the Viewer then uses the back button in their browser to return to the Repository

  • Fixed a bug that caused a "Something went wrong" error screen when attempting to delete an image from the Unsorted Uploads page that had an overlay attached
  • Fixed a bug which prevented the Edit Metadata dialog from displaying for the currently viewed folder

Search Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where reopening the "Select field" dropdown after initial selection would highlight all of the available options

API Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where a multi-frame request would only return a single frame

Other Fixes

  • ZIP files using compression mode 9 (Deflate64) are now properly supported
    • This was primarily a problem for ZIP files greater than 4 GB created in Windows Explorer
  • Fixed CSV export of annotations for images with different pixel scales in the x and y directions
  • Fixed a bug in the Bulk Metadata Upload tool that could sometimes result in the wrong date being put into a Date field due to timezone interpretation

  • Other bug fixes and UI improvements
