65124830 Jan 20185.9501

Added: the following experimental math support to the lab perspective:

  • AsciiMath inside an asciimath inline label will be rendered as MathML.
<inline label="asciimath">
        `y=x^2`</inline>
  • AsciiMath inside a media-fragment will be rendered as MathML. These can also be transcluded.
<media-fragment mediatype="text/asciimath">
      `y=x^2`</media-fragment>
  • A custom asciimath editor configured through:
    •  a document-template.psml that includes the above media-fragment,
    • a document-config.xml that defines the editor.

For example:

<editor name="asciimath"
   mediatype="text/asciimath"
      format="media-fragment"/>
  • MathML inside a media-fragment will be rendered correctly in Google Chrome. These fragments can be transcluded.
<media-fragment
   mediatype="application/mathml+xml">
      ...
 </media-fragment>
  • Added a wirismathml custom editor configured though:
    • a document-template.psml that includes the above media-fragment,
    • a document-config.xml that defines the editor.

For example:

<editor name="wirismathml"
   mediatype="application/mathml+xml"
      format="media-fragment"/>

65091522 Jan 20185.9501

63464915 Jan 20185.9500

Fixed: problem with @version and @compareto attributes on <ps:export> ANT task when processing more than 20 documents.

64754012 Jan 20185.9500-beta-5

Added: support for <filter ranges="[comma separated list]"> on the <ps:export> ANT task.

It follows the same format as this service:

/groups/{group}/search

for example:

 ranges="pslastediteddate:
         [2017-12-06;2017-12-20],
         psxrefcount:[1;]"
64666812 Jan 20185.9500-beta-5

Added: a “List media” option on the Upload page. For an upload batch with less than 20 files, this enables multiple files from the same media type to be processed the same way. When there are more than 20 files in the batch, the media types are listed automatically.

64761912 Jan 20185.9500-beta-5

Added: support for override="true" on publishing <target> element. Instead of having to replace all options in the interface, a single target can be overridden with the same name and action type.

For example, the following will override only the default docx Export:

<target name="create-consolidated-docx"
    override="true">

 All other options in the Export will be unaffected.

6476538 Jan 20185.9500-beta-5

Added: support for different response formats by adding .json or .csv to the end of a service URL. See “Output Types” in /groups/{group}/search in API Service documentation for an example.

While JSON support is in many services, CSV is currently only supported in Members list and Search. 

64142920 Dec 20175.9500-beta-5

Fixed: problem re-indexing a group with a stale index.

  • metadata editing on non-PSML  and binary format documents,
  • define and enforce constraints in editor-config.json,
  • edit document title, filename, description, labels and docid,
  • facet filtering of the display,
  • better keyboard support for navigation (ctrl-[arrow], tab and enter keys),
  • generate and display PDF thumbnail images,
  • access through Standard perspective instead of Lab,
  • open Edit sheet directly from Document browse, Images and Search pages.

64671918 Dec 20175.9500-beta-3

Added: support for extracting metadata from the following file types:

  • Microsoft Office (.docx, .xlsx, .pptx),
  • PDF (.pdf),
  • image (.jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .png).

Functionality for these types is configurable via the standard default media template files. Other types can be added through the Document Config page under the Dev tab on the menu bar.

Where previous versions of PageSeeder used document-template.psml to support non-PSML documents, these should be renamed to media-template.psml using the Dev > Project files page.

Extracting metadata on upload may take longer. When this support is not required, override the default media template and remove references to meta. fields.

Alternately, disable metadata extraction for files with a certain extension by editing the @level attribute on the <document> element for the appropriate media-template.psml:

<document level="metadata">
</document>
64482418 Dec 20175.9500-beta-3

Fixed: problem when uploading a {name}.zip file that has the same folder names as the PageSeeder file system but expressed in different letter case.

64656815 Dec 20175.9500-beta-3

Fixed: the duplication of a task created when a comment is moved to a task that was created after the comment.

       = DGROUP.groupid
  where DGROUP.groupid is null;

  left outer join XLINK on
  XLINK_FOR_XLINK.replytoid = XLINK.xlinkid
  where XLINK.xlinkid is null;
select * from XLINK_FOR_XLINK
  left outer join XLINK on
  XLINK_FOR_XLINK.replyid = XLINK.xlinkid
  where XLINK.xlinkid is null;

  left outer join DGROUP on
  DGROUPURI_FOR_DGROUP.groupid
        = DGROUP.groupid 
  where DGROUP.groupid is null;
