Release Notes – Annotate PRO Web Editor

We’ve been tweaking the AP web experience to support a new AP feature, Checklists. This release completes our updates with:

1. Full Support for Three Types of Checklists
   Checklists make it easy to include lots of options in a single AP Comment, then simply choose the ones appropriate in the current situation. Checklists are part of AP+’s Forms feature, but are free to all through July 1, 2023. See screenshot below, showing a single AP Comment that could be used to provide a complete narrative response to a presentation. It includes a wildcard form entry, in yellow, and then multiple checklists. Check off the items that apply, and AP inserts only your choices into the feedback destination.
2. More Compact Comment Sorting Experience
   Many AP users create large numbers of Comments within a specific Group. Sorting them to suite is important, so we made AP’s sorting interface more compact to make it easier to view a larger number of Comments.

We’ve squashed a lot of bugs and added polish. Feedback very welcome!

Our September, 2022 update is fairly substantial. We’ve made changes to parts of AP you don’t see and made a number of tweaks and updates.

1. Improved updating process
   You’ll notice a friendly, “AP just got better” message each time we update the web app. This will help ensure you’re using the latest version of AP and communicate updates more effectively.
2. Simplified menu structure
   We’ve consolidated editing, importing, sharing, and authoring of Comments under the Edit & Share menu choice.
3. Dedicated Manage Libraries page
   AP makes it easy to create, share, and use Libraries of expert feedback. Implementing a dedicated page, located in the Edit & Share menu, makes it easier for users to understand the status of various Libraries, including ones provided by 11trees and shared by colleagues (institutional users only).
4. Subscriptions to AP products split out from your Settings
   A dedicated Subscriptions menu choice makes it easy to understand your AP role, what features and Comment Libraries you have, and key subscription dates.
5. Dedicated Settings page
   Update all your AP settings, including for our Word app and Chrome Extension, from one place.
6. Improved Admin Features
   Institutional Admins can now view and edit their organization’s settings, including subscription dates and AP-wide settings. Specifically, Admins can control AP’s History feature and Library sharing. They can also view email domains configured for automatic user provisioning.
7. Improved Feedback Builder page
   Improved layout and bug fixes. Improved mobile support, so you can grab a Comment using AP on your phone’s mobile browser, add it to your clipboard, and paste it into any phone app (email, messaging etc.).
