In this update, we've introduced several enhancements to improve your user experience and bolster security across our platform. Key features include the introduction of context menus, making it easier to navigate and interact with your content. We've also prioritized security with the removal of publicly accessible projects, offering a more secure way to share individual reviews. Integration with ShotGrid has been streamlined, ensuring proper synchronization and enhancing image quality.
Context Menus
  • Enjoy improved user experience with context menus. Now, you can simply right-click or control-click items in the Review Player's playlist to access context menus.
  • Effortlessly manage your media items in the Project Overview by right-clicking or control-clicking to reveal their action menu. You can apply group actions to multiple selected items, or individual actions to unselected items, for added convenience and control.
Security Improvements
  • We've enhanced security across the platform, ensuring your data stays safe and protected.
  • Publicly-accessible projects are no longer an option, providing increased security for your work. You can now share individual reviews with external users while maintaining the privacy of your projects:
  1. Existing public projects will have a new
    Public
    button in the Project Overview warning that the project is publicly accessible. Untitled (1)
  2. Clicking this button will take you to the Project Settings screen, where you can make the project private. Untitled
ShotGrid
  • Achieve seamless synchronization with ShotGrid as status changes made in the Project Overview, in addition to changes in the Review Player, now sync back to ShotGrid.
  • Experience improved image quality when syncing image files from ShotGrid with "Re-encode videos" turned off. SyncSketch now retrieves the original image upload instead of ShotGrid’s transcoded version, eliminating compression artifacts.
  • Managing playlists in ShotGrid is now more straightforward, with updates to playlist names in ShotGrid reflecting in SyncSketch without creating new reviews.
  • Playlist name changes in ShotGrid will no longer cause SyncSketch to overwrite existing reviews with the same name.
General Updates & Fixes:
