Bug fixes

Improved automatic authentication on Cornerstone sites
Fixes of logging of client-side errors
Fix for content language selection for Information callouts
...
Version 1.16.0 - 18.7.2022
New product features
Configurable chain of hotspot placement algorithms
With the beginning of GRAVITY Version 1.16 you cannot no longer assign one algorithm to one site. Instead, you can now add all algorithms to a site and define to order in which they should be applied if GRAVITY cannot find an element anymore. The algorithm chips can be reordered and checked, respectively unchecked, if you do not need a specific algorithm.
You will find the new algorithm function on the General Tab for each site.
...
Hints for target elements which work better as Workflow steps targets
If GRAVITY sees an element that could be uses as a workflow step with “Mouse click” we display it to you if you move your mouse over such an element. If you then decide to create a workflow step, we automatically set the Navigation to “Mouse click only”. Adding Workflows step will be clearer and faster since we can predict what will be the best configuration for the selected element.
...
Possibility to search for single callouts from the Dashboard
The search function in the dashboard now looks up single callouts as well.
...
A new default Dashboard search filter 'this Page'
To support the extended search function in Version 1.16 we introduce a new filter that shows help content on “this Page”. Prior to this version we used ‘this site’ to display what was on the actual site the user was looking on. From 1.16 on, we differentiate now between what you see on the open page ‘this Page’ and what is available on the entire site ‘this Site’. Which is within the boundaries of the site configuration in the GRAVITY admin site. While ‘this App’ might contains more sites the one.
...
Automatic authentication on ServiceNow sites
Now GRAVITY supports the user authentication (for Security level 0) on ServiceNow applications. The ServiceNow User Sync can be activated when the application type is set to ‘ServiceNow’.

...
Version 1.15.0 - 11.4.2022
New product features
Language Variations
There are situations when GRAVITY can’t find the correct element in multi languages environment. To overcome that issue, GRAVITY provided “Aliases” for such cases. With version 1.15 we provide a clean and intuitive way to assign such multilanguage hotspots.
Once activated, callouts in the hotspot collector can be assigned to another element on the site. Just right click and choose “Attach as language variation”, select the correct element and right click again, select “Paste as language variation”.
...
The Multi Language variations menu can be activated on site level.
...
New Workflow Option – Mouse click only
A new option is added to navigate to the next workflow step via click on site's element only. If that option is selected, the “next arrow” is removed and the message “click on the item” is displayed. So you can describe the action in the callout and then refer to it on the workflow step.
...
To select this option, navigate in the workflow step to edit step #2 and select “Mouse click only” in the “Navigation” drop down.
...
Always open at once
A new option is added to always open callouts regardless of their 'tracked' state. As a Goal Owner, you can now define those callouts who are marked as “open at once” will always automatically open. That applies even when the user has seen it already. That allows use cases where you want to display governance information at any time.
...
Hide the "Hotspot Collector"
In Version 1.15 we added the possibility to hide “hotspot collector” in Edit Mode. If an author has a lot of elements in the hotspot collector and can’t see what is behind the collector, he might close it now. If the edit mode is deactivated and reactivated again. The “hotspot collector” is displayed again.
...
Callout type is now visible in Edit Mode
In Edit Mode the authors now see what kind of callout they are editing. And NO, you can’t change the type right now. But you anticipated correctly, the radio buttons will be working shortly.
...
Automatic authentication on Microsoft Dynamics sites
Now GRAVITY supports the user authentication (for Security level 0) on the Microsoft Dynamics application. The Microsoft Dynamics User Sync can be activated when the application type is set to “Dynamics”.

...
...
Version 1.14.9 - 21.01.2022
New product features
Possibility to reset position of moved hotspots to the initial point
Sometimes when you move a created hotspot from its origin position, it will be moved behind an object on the page. If you let go the mouse button, the hotspot will not be accessible anymore. GRAVITY will not show that hotspot in the ‘Hotspot Collector’ since that hotspot is on the site but just not visible anymore. In that case you can now reset the hotspot to its original position by looking up that hotspot in the admin site and press the ‘reset position button’ (screen shot red square).
...
Possibility to force hotspot to be shown in Lighthouse
If a hotspot cannot be attached stable enough to an element because that element is not always visible but needs to be visible to the user at any time, you are now able to force that callout to be shown in the lighthouse. Lookup the callout in the admin site and press ‘Show in lighthouse’ (screen shot blue square).
That callout will now be presented to the user in the lighthouse, even though the site element is available on the site.

Product improvements
First and last workflow steps are visually recognizable
...
Some web application has mechanics that switches URL without loading the whole site. In that case, when a page is not completely reloaded but URL is changed GRAVITY is not reinitialized and content from the previous page is shown.
When an application uses such in-app routing, in the site configuration, “Site URL Watcher” can be activated, in the “General” tab of each site configuration. With the “Site URL Watcher” activated GRAVITY recognize such passive URL changes and makes sure the corresponding information is loaded.
...
Scrolling position calculation method
We tweaked the method to calculate the scrolling position of a workflow step in long sites. If objects have relative positions, we add an additional algorithm which calculates the position on such sites. The method can be switched for each site configuration on the “general” tab.

Improved isolation of the translation function when GRAVITY is used together with Beezy for SharePoint.

Support for "Font Awesome 5".
Reset for all users" in Edit Mode - step 2 now also resets the "display counter".
Site configuration now also supports "," (comma) as part of the URL.
Negative window size no longer leads to "invisible" callouts.
Handling of empty login parameters is changed. If user login information is empty during autologin, we don't send any server requests just log that email is empty and autologin is not possible.
The Announcement position on the screen is changed from centered to top of the screen. That makes it easier to place bigger images on different screen sizes and different browser view scaling.
Bug fixes
Fixed a bug that prevents changing the date of a Goal after the initial setting.
Fixed a server crash when sending an URL contains a comma sign. Now comma sign is replaced with encoded version before sending
When deleting a Goal, the correct Goal name is displayed in the alert window
