FlexPaper 2.2.1 Release Notes

11 December 2013

We have started rolling out version 2.2.1 today. Our Zine viewer is the first viewer to be updated. Annotations and Classic builds will be updated at the beginning of next week.

  • Issue fixed where performing a search in FlexPaper Zine flash followed by switching into a different view would cause the viewer not to show the document
  • Improvements to the annotations build making the note widget easier to resize on touch devices
  • Issue fixed where a selection from a lower point to a higher point would create an incorrect annotation mark in the Classic Annotations viewer
  • Issue fixed where it wasn’t possible to select text inside annotation notes on iPad
  • Issue fixed where annotations would not be repositioned properly on resize of the browser window in HTML5 mode
  • Regression issue fixed where the annotations viewer would not resize on rotating a device
  • Fixed an issue related to external urls missing the leading “http://” which would not work in the flash mode of Zine
  • Optimizations for landscape documents in Flash mode within FlexPaper Zine
  • Issue fixed where publications with their thumbnails hidden in Zine would in some scenarios not show in IE10
  • Fisheye thumbnails improved for Zine in IE9 and IE10 when using FlexPaper in flip book mode with rendering mode set to HTML4 or HTML5
  • Mouse wheel support added for Zine (when viewing your publication as a flip book)
  • Issue fixed where fisheye thumbnails in Zine would appear in full screen even if turned off if the viewer was using PreviewMode. This was affecting the flash viewer only
  • Validation of documents containing non-JSON (non printable, control characters) compatible characters further improved in Desktop Publisher

  • Issue fixed where Zine would zoom unintentionally when dragging the corners of the pages in HTML5 and HTML4 mode
  • Links will now give a link hint when hovering a page in Zine in both Flash and HTML5
  • New Zine style property: Link color. Use this to set the desired link color in your publications
  • Issue fixed where the mobile preview in Desktop Publisher would respond to single clicks as opposed to double clicking which is what mobile devices do
