Bugfixes for

  • Space owner has only editor rights
  • Unexpected application error when bulk-removing users from the members list
  • Sub selection on touch devices does not work
  • PDF export with Safari fails
  • Dark mode fixes
  • When adding 5 or 10 notes via drag and drop the notes are added in the wrong size
  • Using TAB to add notes inside table creates smaller notes
  • Shape icon disappears on hover over
  • When copying a mind map with hidden nodes the hidden nodes are not copied
  • Toolbar related bugs
  • Wrong object is moved by keyboard during duplication
  • Frame associated issues (to be released in CW 7):
    • Frame content disappears, seemly after copying from frame and selecting it: we added a prominent offset to the copy
    • Frame duplication should select frame and content to easily move it: see offset solution above.
    • Duplicating a template in the frame should not result in the copy being inside the frame: see offset solution above.
    • Partially adding content to the frame changes the z-index. Solution:
      • frame resize will keep the canvas z-index of the new children
      • adding objects as new children will assign the highest z-index to always have them on top/ selectable
    • delete frame, but not children resulted in sync issues. Solution: deletion of the frame will also delete all children. if you want to keep the children you need to first duplicate them to the canvas.
    • Objects cannot be connected in locked frames
    • Templates with frame + locked object are not added to canvas
