Platform

  • Version stacking comparison UI. Added two new modes, one for “Onion Skinning” which allows for stacking up to 6 layers at once with opacity sliders, and other for doing a stacked comparison with a “Swipe” to show portions of 2 images stacked on top of each other at once.

  • Quick Search: new global search modal opens from the sidebar (/ shortcut) with persisted multi-drive filters

  • Search by metadata: metadata values now surface in main asset search

  • Comments: search bar in the asset viewer comments panel — filters comments and replies by text or author

  • Windows Explorer Sync extension — right-click Open/Share in File Explorer for synced drives

  • RAW support: Hasselblad .fff and Leica .rwl now will show previews

  • Enterprise settings: Audit Logs link to the WorkOS admin portal, plus widget styling polish

  • Fixed “Open in Shade” for files when using a custom mount location

  • Drive download button now respects the current selection instead of always downloading the whole folder

  • Download progress no longer gets stuck at "1s remaining"

  • PDF viewer renders again — fixed missing MIME types

  • Markup annotations stay on screen while you type the comment

  • Column view delete: failures now show an error and refresh instead of silently reappearing

  • Version Stack operations: polling stops on failure with a clear error notification

  • Desktop notification settings are hidden when in the browser

  • Photo annotation/timestamp modes reset predictably when switching comments

  • Linux RPM build: fixed Chrome sandbox permission so the renderer launches
