v4.1.72 - Wed Nov 05 2025

• Batches: Fixed a few issues where sync might fail if ESP returns unexpected data.
• Uploads: Removed the 'Color' field ('Black and White' / 'Color'). Sync started getting errors on this and it seems the ESP UI no longer shows this field. It may have been deprecated (which is a good thing)
• Uploads: Fix (hopefully) for the layout issue in Firefox where the vertical text in the Review Reason box would overlap with the text at the right.

v4.1.71 - Tue Nov 04 2025

• Batches & uploads: The upload preview panel, when 'View|Edit' switch is set in 'View' mode, now shows inspection info, when available'

v4.1.70 - Tue Nov 04 2025

• Daily Stats: Fix for high CPU usage, even when there's no interaction with the page.

v4.1.69 - Sat Nov 01 2025

• Translation disabled for dynamic app content. We were getting errors for dynamic sections when the user had translation enabled in the browser (e.g. chrome)
• Lots of back end server operational functionality added to allow better monitoring of background processes and debugging of issues.
• Sync: fixed an issue that resulted in gaps in the synced uploades under certain conditions.
• Sync: added a background task that completes synced batches up to as far in the past as possible, up to the pointwhere Getty has purged them.

v4.1.68 - Thu Oct 23 2025

• UI: Hover effect no longer triggered for disabled buttons.
• General: maintenance update of used libraries.

v4.1.67 - Tue Oct 21 2025

• Uploads: Upload list improvements when viewed on mobile devices.
• AI: Support for Anthropic Claude 4.5 Haiku model added.
• AI: Can now be started as soon as the images are added, no need to wait for upload & ESP thumbnail processing to complete. Not for videos yet. Also verify that the thumbnail extracted from the file has high enough quality (depends on your editing software). If not: sync the batch to get the ESP thumbnail instead.
• AI: Now detects editorial uploads, marks them on the Upload Info Card at the top, and adjusts the prompts and results accordingly. You'll want to first make sure the creation date is set, and perhaps enter location data before starting the AI analysis; with the option 'Use user input' turned on.
• AI: We no longer show Read-only keywords in the Upload Info Card, and we no longer supply them to the AI. Words like 'horizontal', 'color', and the repeated country only add noise to the AI input.

v4.1.66 - Mon Oct 20 2025

• Uploads: Completely new upload thumbnail architecture. 'Rescues' thumbnails from batches/uploads in the background, instead of directly using the URLs from the Getty API, which expire every 7 days. Will take weeks to sync. Only thumbnails from batches that were purged from the ESP server, for rejected uploads or accepted/similar CC uploads cannot be recovered.
• Uploads: Added warning on the upload panel about the current AWS outages
• Batches: Sync now detects batches that were purged from ESP and marks them with a 'trashcan' icon in the UI. This is one stage further from being 'closed' ('padlock' icon)
• Collections: New sort option 'Board date' for collections imported from boards: date when board was last updated at getty/iStock site. Set when imported.
• Collections: Clicking the 'board' badge now opens the website (iStock/Getty) matching where the board was imported from.
• General: The browser icon for deepmeta.creativ.zone should now be the DeepMeta icon, and be the creativ.zone icon for all other subdomains.

v4.1.65 - Thu Oct 09 2025

• Uploads: Fix for DM-ESP country name mismatch: 'Falkland Islands' - Falkland Islands (Malvinas), preventing a submit.

v4.1.64 - Wed Oct 08 2025

• AI: Now also allowed for Uploads that are no longer editable. Clicking 'SAVE' will report that saving is no longer possible.
• AI: Some UI tweaks for mobile.
• AI: Fix: Now correctly reports in the preview panel if no metadata was found in the Upload. (was showing the number '0' before)

v4.1.63 - Tue Oct 07 2025

• Uploads: On desktop, alt-clicking a term, candidate or release in the Edit panel, will select all uploads in the list that have this item assigned.
• UI: Some dark mode and mobile tweaks.
• Asset sync: when syncing assets from the istock/getty site to the DM4 server, assets reported by the istock/getty server as having a submission date of 1/1/0000 (!), will get a new submission date equal to their creation date. This avoids issues with sorting and displaying these assets in the UI.

v4.1.62 - Tue Oct 07 2025

• Batches: Fix for memory issue when many batches are shown in the list.
• AI: Added a very experimental 'Review' feature. Click the Help button on the AI page for more explanation.

v4.1.61 - Tue Oct 07 2025

• AI: Small UI improvements (showing Img analysis results while disambiguation is still ongoing). Big code refactoring to allow for many more variations in prompts and settings.
• Daily stats: fix for stalled scrolling due to smaller thumbnails. Page size was 50 and if all fit on the page, there was no more scroll trigger. Increased page size to 100.
• Batches: removed the text: '(100 most recent)'. Which was no longer correct. In a future update, I will change from infinite scroll to paged scroll, unless I can fix performance issues with large batch counts.

v4.1.60 - Fri Oct 03 2025

• AI: Fix for regression error where selecting a different upload no longer cleared the results of the previous one.
• AI: For models that don't allow changing the Creativity (and are typically very slow too ... here's looking at you GPT...), the Creativity slider is now hidden.

v4.1.59 - Fri Oct 03 2025

• Daily stats: improvements to the thumbnail system.
• Daily stats: S+ assets are shown with an S+ badge.
• AI: Fix for the broken 'Store' links. These are now buttons and split into 'Save' (overwrite) and 'Append' (add to existing). Check the help panel to read how this works for disambiguated terms.
• AI: Your settings for Analysis and Disambiguation are now remembered for next time.
• AI: Fix for results disappearing when panel is closed and reopened.
• AI: The Upload data card can now be hidden to save space.

v4.1.58 - Thu Oct 02 2025

• Daily stats: new thumbnail system.
• Daily stats: the 'NEW' badge is now overlaid on the thumbnail to save space underneath
• Upload stats: table cells with no thumbnail now show the text 'no sales', to avoid the assumption that the thumbnail might be missing.
• AI: Selecting a different upload now properly clears the state
• AI: Sparkles button moved to the Upload Edit panel.
• AI: Fix for disabled title/description length input fields on Firefox

v4.1.57 - Mon Sep 29 2025

• AI: Disambiguation improved. Uses up to 3 times less tokens.

v4.1.55 - Sat Sep 27 2025

• Settings: panel now more mobile friendly
• AI: Disambiguation added. Is a very first attempt and fairly slow, but interesting nevertheless. Have many ideas to improve on it!

v4.1.54 - Sat Sep 27 2025

• Uploads: If an EPS file is added to a non-illustration batch, and it was the only file added, the user is now warned that the batch type is wrong. Is update to change from fix in previous release for an edge case.
• AI: Added the Claude 3.7 Sonnet model as alternative to Claude 4.0 Sonnet, for evaluation
• AI: The UI now allows full control of min/max lengths for title and description.

v4.1.53 - Fri Sep 26 2025

• Uploads: If an EPS file is added to a non-illustration batch, the user is now warned that the batch type is wrong, instead of complaining it has no raster file.
• Batches: Fix for regression error where the acceptance details for CC batches was no longer shown in the batch list.

v4.1.52 - Fri Sep 26 2025

• Settings: A brand new 'Settings' pane has been added (cogwheel icon at top right). Allows selecting Upload region, Keyword language, Default country and some experimental preferences (hidden by default).

v4.1.51 - Wed Sep 24 2025

• Uploads: Initial phase when files are added now has its own set of states with individual retries. The current state is shown in the Upload slide panel (though it typically goes away quickly when all goes well)
• Uploads: All country names now shown in UI to match those used by ESP
• Collections: List now shows if a collection is tied to an imported board. Hover over the badge to see the Board ID and last update date. Click to open the board at gettyimages.com

• Uploads: AI: Added support for Google Gemini API

v4.1.48 - Mon Sep 22 2025

• Uploads: If user adds more files than free slots in the batch, an error is immediately shown, instead of later at upload time.
• Uploads: Processing now has additional timeout detection (with retries) for all states of the upload process, as well as for the initial keyword lookup at the very start. Also additional logging added.
• Uploads: An experimental 'Sparkles' button has been added, allowing AI generation of title, description and keywords for the selected upload. Very very experimental, and only available to Beta Testers. Serves as initial evaluation of viability of AI-generated metadata.

v4.1.47 - Thu Sep 18 2025

• Preferences: reworked internal mechanism, in preparation for upcoming DeepMeta Preferences panel. Also reduces network trafic when making rapid changes, like dragging a slider for thumbnail size.
• Inspections: Fix for crash for reported user case where upload could not be found for a given inspection.

v4.1.46 - Thu Sep 18 2025

• Upload: video poster frame selection now possible on both local file (while uploading) and remote file from ESP server (after upload). Playback/scrub performance will depend on video size, codec and network.

v4.1.45 - Wed Sep 17 2025

• Inspections: Fix for inadvertent center alignment of thumbnails when detail panel open

v4.1.44 - Wed Sep 17 2025

• Uploads: CSV import: When a keyword auto-matches a corresponding vocabulary term (e.g. term 'Nebraska' for keyword 'nebraska', the term is still assigned, but we now no longer remove that keyword. This way, the user can still select additional terms as well. This matches with how it works when manually typing in keywords.
• General: Property lists in the right-hand slide panel now show descriptions full width left aligned, with less jarring copy/paste animation
• Inspections: (possible) Fix for ugly scrollbars showing up in Windows browsers for each of the thumbnail rows

v4.1.43 - Wed Sep 17 2025

• Uploads: The progress bar in the upload slide panel now also shows the total % finished
• General: All back-buttons in the page headers now link to the logical next-up section, instead of linking to the previously visited page (you can use your browser's 'back' button for that).
• First time sales: Thumbnails now sorted by upload date within each month group, instead of arbitrary

v4.1.42 - Tue Sep 16 2025

• Uploads: major refactor of the upload code: better memory management. Note that some regression errors may occur, but we should be able to fix these quickly.
• Uploads: When a file with video extension is added, which is not actually a video, this is now reported as error.
• Uploads: When an EPS illustration file is added without a corresponding raster JPG file, this is now reported as error.
• Uploads: Fix for CSV import of the 'created date' field. Now correctly assigned, corresponding to the batch type
• Uploads: Number of retries are now shown during upload as well. When finished, if retries, separate counts for different phases are shown, e.g. '0+2+0+0'. Hover over the numbers to see a breakdown.
• Uploads: Fix for JPG-only Illustration uploads: now correctly go to 'To Edit' or 'To Submit' status after upload.
• Member feed: fix for crash when asset has not the expected thumbnails

v4.1.41 - Tue Sep 09 2025

• Uploads: When view set to 'Grid', the Status icon is now also shown for easier identification. Depending on the setting of the size slider, either just the icon or the icon with text is shown.
• Uploads: First set of memory optimizations added: better cleanup after upload and error
• Uploads: After illustration upload, the size of both main and raster files is now shown.

v4.1.40 - Tue Sep 09 2025

• Portfolio: new version of the background portfolio sync. Collect S+ info. This will trickle in over coming days/weeks, as the sync progresses.
• Portfolio: Better UI: no longer reports '0 assets found' while fetch from server is still ongoing.

v4.1.39 - Sat Sep 06 2025

• Portfolio: reverted S+ related changes ... need more work.

v4.1.38 - Sat Sep 06 2025

• Portfolio: fix for backend asset fetching: regression error in thumb URLs.
• Portfolio: ui already shows S+ status, but backend will first need to resync data for these to show up. Work in progress...

v4.1.37 - Thu Sep 04 2025

• Portfolio: If no assets found, this is reported. If no assets found and search terms were entered by the user, a hint is shown to adjust the search criteria.
• Batches: Clicking on the 'info' button for a batch, slides in the 'Batch Details' panel, like before. This panel now also shows the upload thumbnails: clicking them allows to copy to clipboard. This provides a more convenient way for upload editing: open your upload list in one tab, and the batch list in another tab. In the batch list: find appropriate batch to copy from, click its 'Info' button and click a thumbnail to copy to clipboard.
• Batches: Button 'View Uploads' was not working (regression): fixed.
• Batches & Uploads: Improved consistency in 'view/edit' buttons across both sections. Also, the button labels are shown if browser window is wide enough. Something I want to do in other places as well ...
• Uploads: Disabled wake lock so that users can sleep at night ;)
• Portfolio: back-end changes in preparation for showing S+ status for assets.

v4.1.36 - Thu Sep 04 2025

• Portfolio sync: Workaround for some assets being reported by Getty API as submitted in the year 9999: we use the creation date as submission date in that case. (fortunately only encountered once so far)
• Uploads: Implemented a 'wake lock', telling the browser not to go to sleep during uploads. Current browsers only promise to keep the screen awake, and not necessarily the whole system, but we hope to prevent network disconnects this way.
• Uploads: Correction for Submissions: uploads that are in 'To Submit' or 'To Revise' state can now be submitted. Previously we allowed 'Revised' uploads to be submitted, which was incorrect.

v4.1.35 - Wed Sep 03 2025

• Portfolio: Improved search/filter in Portfolio: shows label with nr of results, click to get more info on how to search. Multiple words can be searched and exclusions are supported.
• Blog: Updated the Upload blog post to reflect all the changes and additions of the past weeks.

v4.1.34 - Wed Sep 03 2025

• Uploads: If multiple uploads selected, all form fields having different values for different uploads are shown in yellow.
• Portfolio: Search/filter in Portfolio assets now also searches in keywords

v4.1.33 - Tue Sep 02 2025

• Uploads: Submit now also allows uploads in the 'Revised' status.
• Uploads: The Submit panel now mentions at the top that either the selected uploads are shown below, or all uploads if none were selected (I think this behavior may confuse users anyway, but wanted to offer the flexibility...)

v4.1.32 - Mon Sep 01 2025

• Uploads: Experimental button added to the Upload Poster Frame field. Timecode can be typed in, but when clicking the new 'video camera' button at the right, a window pops up with the video allowing to visually select the poster frame. Button is not available at all times: depends on whether file is still uploading or not, and support for video format depends on browser.
• Uploads: Submit button added at top right of the Uploads section. If uploads were selected, these will be submitted, if nothing selected, all submittable uploads will be submitted. A confirmation is asked first.
• Uploads: Tweaks to the Upload keyword panels UI for better distinction: yellow = newly added, blue = valid (has at least 1 term set, or is candidate), grey = needs disambiguation

v4.1.31 - Fri Aug 29 2025

• Uploads: Keyword and Release panels now show selected items more clearly with a colored background and text color. Checkboxes moved to the left.
• Uploads: Keywords in the right-hand suggestion panel that are assigned as candidates in the left-hand panel, are now visually distinct, similar to selected terms. They now also have a checkbox and can be toggled.
• Uploads: Keyboard shortcut added: when Ctrl/Cmd clicking a term in the right hand suggestion list, the term is assigned and the keyword panel removed in one go (same as in DeepMeta 3).
• Uploads: Using the 'trashcan' icon at the top of the left hand list now also deletes the candidate terms.
• Uploads: When one of the 2 keyword lists is scrolled down and an item is clicked, on some browsers, the list would jump to the top. This should be fixed now and the scroll position should be maintained. Note that for some manipulations, such as typing in new keywords or switching tabs, the lists intentionally jump to the top. This is by design.

v4.1.30 - Fri Aug 22 2025

• Uploads: Retries of failed chunks will now also be done for 2 additional error conditions observed in the logs

v4.1.29 - Thu Aug 21 2025

v4.1.21 - Fri Aug 15 2025

• Upload: If an illustration is added for upload and neither the EPS nor the JPG has a date in the exif, the last modified date of the EPS will be used as the creation date. (from the browser, we cannot access the file creation date)
• Upload: Uploads that ended with an error are no longer automatically deleted from the list when new files are added.
• Upload: Aborted uploads are now also logged to the server for debugging purposes
• General: chunks of code loaded by the browser are now cached so they are still available after a site update, publishing new chunks of code. Should mitigate the reported 'ChunkLoadError' issue.

v4.1.20 - Wed Aug 13 2025

• Upload: Fix: upon adding files, if creation date was provided as string in exif, it was not read.

v4.1.19 - Wed Aug 13 2025

v4.1.15 - Sat Aug 09 2025

• Upload: Copy/paste now stores a reference to the copied Asset/Upload to the database. Now works across different tabs/windows/browsers. Also always uses the most recent fields of the copied source, even if changed since the copy action.

• Statements: Fix for royalty statements in Chinese (Mandarin)
• Statements: UI now clearly shows drop zone for drag-n-drop support for royalty statement upload

• Uploads: Internal: Refinement of checks that validate the success of a batch sync

v4.1.6 - Wed Jul 16 2025

• Statistics: Daily stats: the asset type icons now just show 'Photo', 'Video' or 'Illustration' upon hover, since 'editorial' info is not present at that level (might be added later though).
• Statistics: The icon for 'upload' is now also an upward arrow in a circle, same as used in the Uploads section and the rest of DM4 (UI consistency).
• Statistics: The mobile view of Daily Stats now shows the Predictinator info instead of the Asset Type info, as it is more useful.

v4.1.4 - Tue Jul 15 2025

• Uploads: Syncing upload edits to ESP is now much faster (if many uploads updated) and has extra verification after the sync, so we can trace any potential reported sync issues.
• Uploads: The keywording language is now shown at top of the keyword input field, but only if it's not English (to avoid needless UI clutter).
• Releases: There is now a 'Name' field which the user can choose as desired. It is initialized to the filename, but can be freely changed. If a name was entered, the filename will still be displayed in the release list, underneath the name.

v4.1.3 - Sat Jul 12 2025

• Uploads: Additional logging of the upload and thumbnail process, along with server side changes.
• UI: Some dark-mode UI fixes

v4.1.2 - Wed Jul 09 2025

• Homepage: new entry 'Upload Stats' added and marked as 'New'
• Statistics: The Upload Stats page is now public and the existing 'Stats by upload date' chart was moved from the 'Sales Stats' page to the top of the new 'Upload Stats' page. This now groups all 'upload-date' related stats in one place. Also, a new STR (Sell Through Rate) column was added.
• Blog: New post with explanation of the Upload Stats page
• Inspections: Batches now link to the correct (new) upload page for that batch instead of the old one.
• Inspections: No more duplicate thumbnails shown for 'Rejected' and 'Still in Review' categories. Could happen if there were multiple resubmissions

v4.1.1 - Mon Jul 07 2025

• Uploads: Fix for headers of Keyword Suggestions and Cue-Cards: clicking them will no longer add these titles as candidates. Only the regular keyword list does this.
• Uploads: Fix for >100% uploaded label; caused by retries (strictly speaking this results in more than 100% of file size uploaded, but showing this to user is confusing)
• Uploads: Fix for label Retry Count always showing 0, even if there were chunks being retried.
• Uploads: Releases: added same hover effects as for keywords to obtain clearer release UI

• Uploads: If an editing change was updated locally in the browser but could not be successfully sent to the DeepMeta server, an error is now shown to the user (for better debugging).
• Upload: The upload list no longer shows 'x changes', but only 'To sync'. Hovering this text still shows the number of fields that were changed.
• Uploads: Right after importing new files, the uploads in the list now show that changes need to be synced ('To sync') instead of '0 changes' (was just a UI thing)

v4.0.35 - Mon Jun 30 2025

• Uploads: If no 'DateTimeOriginal' found in the EXIF data of an imported file, then 'CreateDate' is used

v4.0.33 - Fri Jun 27 2025

• Uploads: Fix for (again) wrong dates shown for uploads, which were sometimes off by 1 day, depending on your timezone.
• Uploads: Complete rework of the Paste tab. You can still paste individual fields, but now also all fields at once, or a selection of the fields. The field-selection is remembered for future pastes.
• Uploads: More changes to the Upload list content, as part of our ongoing improvement of the UI based on your input.

v4.0.32 - Mon Jun 23 2025

• Stats: Bugfix for 'Upload stats' table: the 'SOLD' column was showing incorrect values for some periods.

v4.0.31 - Mon Jun 23 2025

• Uploads: It's now possible to pause/resume uploads, as well as remove individual uploads from the upload queue, even if they are already uploading.
• Uploads: Some bug fixes and UI-tweaks.

v4.0.25 - Thu Jun 05 2025

• Uploads: Adding and editing uploads now automatically applies the sort order, so that requested sort order is always respected. If items in the upload list jump as a result, and you don't want this: change your sorting to a more appropriate option
• Uploads: Some UI tweaks to the space usage of the keyword lists. The round keyword selection buttons are now always shown, and show the expected action upon hover ('+' for adding, '-' for removing)
• Uploads: Adding new keywords no longer results in a full reload of the upload list.
• Uploads: Added new sort options 'Filename' and 'Create At' (= CameraShootDate), 'Uploaded At' (= when created at ESP)
• Uploads: More granular Status while uploading: 'Waiting' (in queue but upload not started yet), 'Uploading', 'Finishing' (upload finished but ESP still processing the file/thumbnail)
• Uploads: Release form now uses same component as upload creation date. Uses the user locale, determined by the language setting of the browser. Also shows the locally formatted date on top as verification. When empty: shows the expected format e.g. 'YYYY-MM-DD'.
• General: Fix for effect where sometimes clicking a button on a popup panel which then closes, resulted in the item underneath also being clicked

v4.0.24 - Wed Jun 04 2025

• Uploads: Sorting now happens locally on the browser. Sorting by 'Status' now works correctly. New sorting options 'Errors' and 'Changes' added
• Uploads: List view now has an experimental (x) number added for testing. It corresponds to the number of fields changed, needing to be synced to ESP. You can sort on this number too. After a sync, they all reset to 0.
• Uploads: The 'Title' edit field now expands if multiple lines are needed to show the content
• Uploads: When adding new releases, if they are PDF, they are shown. With earlier versions, PDF preview only worked on Safari browsers and showed a broken image on other browsers. Still to be tested on mobile browsers

v4.0.23 - Mon Jun 02 2025

• Briefs: fix for crash when clicking on some new briefs, that are apparently not having the hyperlinks they're supposed to have

v4.0.22 - Mon Jun 02 2025

• Uploads: Keywords in right-hand lists now show full text upon hover. Useful for long keywords that may be truncated in the list

• Uploads: Status now always shows text. Also more detailed statuses, e.g. 'To Edit' or 'To Submit' instead of 'Pending'
• Uploads: The size-slider now affects Grid, List and Table views. May need more tweaks for different screen sizes.
• Uploads: Some initial attempts to get more usable fields in the Upload lists. Needs quite a bit more work though; just getting started.

• Uploads: fix for Date picker timezone conversion issue (e.g. entered date 2000/1/1 became 1999/12/31
• Uploads: fix for Date picker 'jumpy' behavior on small screens when paging through months

v4.0.18 - Sat May 24 2025

• Collections: When on the Batch list page: click the 'Info' button to open the Batch Detail Page. It now has a button 'Add to Collection' allowing you to add all accepted uploads of the batch to a collection

v4.0.17 - Fri May 23 2025

• Uploads: Uploads should now retry when errors are encountered and only stop when all retries fail.

v4.0.16 - Thu May 22 2025

• Uploads: The keys Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V (or Cmd, on Mac) can now be used for copy-paste of uploads.

v4.0.15 - Wed May 21 2025

• Uploads: The 'select' button is now only shown on mobile devices. Desktops now use Shift and Ctrl/Cmd - click to multiselect the upload list. If it works well, we'll use this system throughout the site.

v4.0.14 - Wed May 21 2025

• Uploads: On upload panel: available slots now shown in the batch selector list, along with the batch type.
• Uploads: On upload panel: when a batch is selected, there is now an edit button to go to the batch page directly.
• Uploads: Better error handling added, like retry of failed chunks. In general, when an error occurs, the file should now immediately be reported with error, instead of just hanging during upload. More improvements to come!

v4.0.13 - Sun May 18 2025

• Uploads: Empty batch page now shows a correct notice to non-BetaTesters. The one we had was confusingly suggesting to sync.
• Batches: Getty Editorial batches now allow the EventType to be selected, both for creation and for editing.

v4.0.11 - Thu May 15 2025

• Uploads: Support for 'candidate' terms added. Keywording now works as in DM3, where you can click a blue keyword title in the right hand column to send it to the left column 'Candidates' list. The right-hand column now only has suggested terms, which are never exchanged with ESP.
• Uploads: The Exif/Iptc field 'ObjectName' is now used as 'title' if the field 'headline' is not present in the metadata. The 'copyright' field is now also imported.
• Uploads: The shown keyword count now includes the number of candidate terms, just like ESP does.
• Sync: Fixed a bug where not all data from files directly uploaded to ESP was synced to DM4.

v4.0.10 - Wed May 14 2025

• Uploads: Fix scroll issue with the right-hand edit panel.

v4.0.9 - Tue May 13 2025

• Uploads: Text at right of the 'select' button above the list now shows number of selected items + total number of items in the batch.
• Uploads: Text at top of the right-hand edit panel now shows the number of editable items + number of selected items.
• Uploads: Right-hand edit panel now has a dual-mode switch at the top: 'just view info of the first selected item' or 'edit all editable selected items'. This makes it possible to view e.g. keywords of uploads that are no longer editable, in case the user wants to use the upload as the source of a copy/paste. There is currently still an 'info' button in the list view, which will go away as soon as the new info view shows as much info as the old pop-up one does.
• Uploads: Right-hand edit panel now has a toggle button to view a large version of the thumbnail (first item, in case multiple are selected). There are +/- buttons (like in Google Maps) to change the size of the thumbnail.

v4.0.8 - Tue May 13 2025

• Menu: Now has 3 user-selectable modes: 'hidden', 'narrow' and 'wide'. Use the pushpin icon to toggle between wide and narrow menu. Use the 'x' icon to hide the menu and use the 'hamburger' icon to pop it up. The latter mode is always used on mobile, like before.
• Upload: Android: fix for 'Enter' key not starting the processing of newly entered keywords.
• Upload: CSV import: Better handling of '*' wildcards and merging.
• Upload: Fix for deletion of new uploads not always deleting them at the ESP site as well.

v4.0.7 - Thu May 08 2025

• Uploads: Support for CSV files, to be added at same time as the imported files, like in DM3. Only had some preliminary testing

• Uploads: The edit panel is now also active for Uploads that are 'revisable'.
• User guide: better explanation of the Upload panel and why it might not show the 'Select files' button.

v4.0.2 - Mon Apr 28 2025

• Uploads: Selection list now uses blue instead of red for the selected items. The red color suggested an error, which was confusing.
• Uploads: Fix for wrong split of entered keyword text. E.g. 'hound dog, cat' is now correctly split into 'hound dog' and 'cat' instead of 'hound', 'dog and cat'.
• Uploads: shootDate/createdDate/recordingDate now show a date in the form if all selected uploads have the same date. If the dates are different, no date is shown.
