As you may have noticed we’ve been accelerating our updates. Don’t worry, we won’t be going the route of Firefox and Chrome as Gliffy 12 won’t be coming out anytime soon… But we are working hard to make Gliffy as bug free and stable as possible. That means we’ll be releasing more frequently as we get fixes into the product. With the UPM in Confluence, it’s as easy as pressing “upgrade” to get the newest version of our plugin!

Here are the highlights:

• A fix for weird shift key behavior in Chrome on Mac! (refer to this advisory)
• A fix for two stored XSS vulnerabilities discovered when Gliffy works in the new Confluence 4 editor

After several months of top secret work, we’re proud to announce the launch our new Confluence 4 compatible plugin!

Gliffy is now as easy to use as the new Confluence 4 editor. We’ve worked hard to make the editing experience as natural and as seamless as possible. No longer will you need to toggle between editing a diagram from the wiki view and updating the diagram layout from the edit view, everything happens in-line with the Confluence 4 editor.

Creating a diagram in the Confluence editor

Editing a diagram in the Confluence editor

We’ve also updated how the diagram appears in the wiki view. We’ve hidden our edit links until you’re ready to interact with the diagram. Once you hover over a diagram, you’ll now be able to zoom larger or edit straight away.

Release Notes – Gliffy – Version Plugins 3.5.2

Bug

• [GLIFFY-3754] – Gliffy Attachments are being saved as 'application/octet-stream' and are not being indexed
• [GLIFFY-3755] – Create Diagram link should not be shown for Comments

New Feature

• [GLIFFY-3775] – Add Warning Banner to display for users who are on Chrome on MAC

Google Chrome for Mac was released on June 6th (v12.0.742.91), several days after we certified our plugin release. Unfortunately, customers using this browser will see Gliffy freeze when attempting to bring up the Link Navigator.

This bug fix restores the previous Text Linking functionality when the browser is Chrome 12.x on a Mac. Please be aware that the Link Navigator is also disabled for all versions of Safari.

This release is recommended for all customers.

Release Notes – Gliffy – Version Confluence Plugin 3.5.1

Bug

• [GLIFFY-3624] – Anonymous users are prevented from creating/saving diagrams even though they have permissions to the page
• [GLIFFY-3690] – Disable Link Navigator on Google Chrome for Mac v12.x

Floating Properties Panel

With this release, we’ve spent significant time improving the usability involved with changing colors, line thicknesses, and other properties of shapes and lines in Gliffy. With the introduction of the Floating Contextual Properties Panel, the placement of the panel has been optimized so that you spend less time moving your mouse back and forth across the screen. This usability improvement also increases the drawing area by up to 50%, which really comes in handy if you’re using a small screen like a laptop. Studies have shown that there is a direct correlation between being able to see more of your work on the screen at one time, and increase efficiency, which has been a big driver with our development of this feature. The end result is that you’ll be able to create great looking flow charts, uml diagrams, and all sorts of other rich visuals with Gliffy in much less time than you did before.

Integrated Confluence Link Navigator – Confluence Only

It’s now easier than ever to link from Gliffy diagrams to any content stored inside Confluence. This was a top feature request from users, which was the main driver for implementing this feature (keep voting on features you’d like to see!). Now when you click on the ‘link’ icon in Gliffy, the Confluence Link Navigator that you’re already familier with is presented. This makes it simple to select and link to any content stored in Confluence.

Auto-save – Confluence Only

We can all identify with a situation like this: You’ve been working for hours on your compter when tragedy strikes. Maybe your web browser crashes, or your computer crashs, but either way you loose your work you spent so much time on. We’ve now implemented auto-save in the Gliffy Confluence Plugin to help eliminate the frustration of lost work the results from computer or browser crashes.
