Here’s what we’ve been working on over the past month:

• New Feature: Subscribe To Comments- When responding to a comment in a room, now you can get an email notification when someone else responds to it. Anyone else who comments on that thread also has the option of subscribing.
  

  Minor Bug Fixes - As some of you know, Vyew 4 is a complete re-write of the Vyew interface from the ground up. Since our initial Vyew 4 release, most of our time has been going into minor bug fixes and optimizations. The new Vyew platform gives us a big potential for a faster product. In the coming months we'll be focusing on this area more.Faster Load Time - While there is still more work to do in this area, we've made a few changes which decreased the load time by about ~2 seconds.Fix: Uploading to multiple rooms - This feature was a little buggy in the past. We've worked on this to ensure the page counts are accurate in the Home tab, and uploads to 30 rooms at a time work consistently.Add: Multi-select in Page Manager - Use Shift-Click to select multiple pages to move or delete them all at once.

• Add: Multi-select objects in a room- Though we already had this in the old Vyew 3, we just added this into Vyew 4.

  

• Fix:Laggy Rooms – We identified a problem which caused random users in a room to experience a 3-5 second lag/delay time in the interface. It was related to our auto-saving feature, and has now been fixed.
• Fix: Scheduled Meeting Sync Mode – When scheduled meetings were set to sync mode, they were not actually switching to sync at the time of the meeting. (Fixed in v4.13, March 2011)
• Add: Keyboard Shortcuts (Hotkeys) – Use these shortcuts for better productivity in a Vyew Room.
